Prevalence and Intensity of Ectoparasites on Mud Crab (Scylla serrata) in Teluk Pakedai District, Kubu Raya Regency [PDF]
Mud crabs (Scylla serrata Forskal, 1775) is a species of fishery commodity that can be attacked by pathogenic agents such as ectoparasites. Ectoparasites that infect mud crabs can trigger damage to the carapace and gills at a certain number of infections.

A tufa mound developed in north‐east Alberta is characterised by an unusual emplacement of a gypsum caprock. This two‐tiered architecture resulted from the bicarbonate‐saturated groundwater flow along Upper Devonian limestone being redirected deeper and encountering the halite–anhydrite dissolution trend within the underlying Prairie Evaporite ...

Cultivation-independent analysis reveals a shift in ciliate 18S rRNA gene diversity in a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-polluted soil [PDF]
Using cultivation-independent methods the ciliate communities of a clay-rich soil with a 90-year record of pollution by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) (4.5 g kg−1 PAH) were compared with that of a nonpolluted soil collected in its vicinity and ...

Environmental DNA sampling coupled with high‐throughput sequencing is increasingly recognized as a useful method for assessing biodiversity with potential applications in terrestrial environments. Rock pools on granite inselbergs support diverse aquatic communities, yet the application of eDNA to document their biodiversity is lacking.

Traits mediate environmental responses of benthic ciliates in dynamic coastal habitats
Abstract Aim Understanding how species' traits mediate environmental responses provides a mechanistic perspective on community assembly processes. Although traits that influence the response of multicellular organisms to environments have been studied, the identification of such traits in unicellular organisms, like ciliates, is underexplored.

Abstract Mixotrophic protists are capable of acting both as primary producers and primary consumers at the base of the aquatic food web, thus constituting key organisms in ecosystems where they are abundant. However, their identity, abundance, ecological dynamics, and biogeochemical impact in aquatic ecosystems remain understudied in comparison to ...

A phylogenetic tree of eukaryotes showcases representatives of protists discovered in deep‐sea sediments through a combination of metabarcoding and direct observations. Each bubble within the tree signifies a distinct ‘supergroup’, with dotted bubbles indicating supergroups currently lacking recorded members known to inhabit the deep‐sea floor.
