Importance of proteins and mitochondrial changes as freshness indicators in fish muscle post-mortem. [PDF]
Abstract Evaluating protein and mitochondrial alterations post‐mortem can contribute to determining correlations between fish‐processing parameters and ultimate fish muscle quality. The myofibrillar protein alteration during rigor mortis directly affects the texture of fish muscle.

Changes in resistance to mechanical pressure during embryogenesis were studied in the signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus Dana). A constant increase in egg size (volume and surface area) was observed to take place throughout the embryonic ...

ABSTRACT Aim Understanding whether invasive species retain or shift their ecological niches has relied on scalar overlap metrics that quantify the magnitude of niche change but not its structure. Here, we test whether biological invasions involve a reorganisation of the environmental axes along which native and invasive ranges are differentiated, and ...

ABSTRACT Invasive alien mussels threaten freshwater ecosystems worldwide by disrupting food webs and nutrient cycling. The effective monitoring of these populations is therefore essential to assess their spread and ecological impacts. This study demonstrates the applicability of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods to monitor the reproductive periods of ...

Lectins and cytokines in celomatic invertebrates: two tales with the same end [PDF]
The paper presents the principle data regarding the presence and the roles of lectins and cytokines in invertebrates. The former have been described in the main invertebrate taxa, such molluscs, annelids, arthropods, echinoderms and tunicates, while ...

The tendency of population decline of the indigenous crayfish, Austropotamobius pallipes, in Navarra was reduced by the implementation of a plan of restoration in 1996. Recently, a new drop in population numbers has been noticed.

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Symbionts, including parasites, are usually small and thus have been overlooked for their existence and scientific research. In the context of biological invasion, host shifts between native and non-native species occur. Since symbionts often affect host

La population d’écrevisses signal arrivées en 1976 dans le Léman continue son expansion le long de la zone littorale à l’ouest de Thonon-les-Bains. En 2001, la population s’étendait jusqu’à Séchex avec une forte densité (82 indiv./nasse) de Thonon à ...
