Taking eDNA underground: Factors affecting eDNA detection of subterranean fauna in groundwater

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 1257-1274, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Stygofauna are aquatic fauna that have evolved to live underground. The impacts of anthropogenic climate change, extraction and pollution on groundwater pose major threats to groundwater health, prompting the need for efficient and reliable means to detect and monitor stygofaunal communities.

Neurochemical diversity in the central olfactory pathway of the crustacean Parhyale hawaiensis (Amphipoda): evolutionary implications

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 10, Page 1032-1056, July 2023., 2023
Neurochemical diversity in the central olfactory pathway of Parhyale hawaiensis Abstract In mandibulate arthropods, the primary olfactory centers, termed olfactory lobes in crustaceans, are typically organized in distinct fields of dense synaptic neuropils called olfactory glomeruli.

Sexual selection and predation drive the repeated evolution of stridulation in Heteroptera and other arthropods

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 942-981, June 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Acoustic and substrate‐borne vibrations are among the most widely used signalling modalities in animals. Arthropods display a staggering diversity of vibroacoustic organs generating acoustic sound and/or substrate‐borne vibrations, and are fundamental to our broader understanding of the evolution of animal signalling.

Depth and latitudinal gradients of diversity in seamount benthic communities

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 904-915, May 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Latitudinal and bathymetric species diversity gradients in the deep sea have been identified, but studies have rarely considered these gradients across hard substratum habitats, such as seamount and oceanic island margins. This study aimed to identify whether the current understanding of latitudinal and bathymetric gradients in α‐diversity

Recent speciation and hybridization in Icelandic deep‐sea isopods: An integrative approach using genomics and proteomics

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 313-330, January 2022., 2022
Abstract The crustacean marine isopod species Haploniscus bicuspis (Sars, 1877) shows circum‐Icelandic distribution in a wide range of environmental conditions and along well‐known geographic barriers, such as the Greenland‐Iceland‐Faroe (GIF) Ridge. We wanted to explore population genetics, phylogeography and cryptic speciation as well as investigate ...

The forgotten feeding ground: patterns in seasonal and depth‐specific food intake of adult cod Gadus morhua in the western Baltic Sea

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 707-722, March 2021., 2021
Abstract This study presents the diet composition of western Baltic cod Gadus morhua based on 3150 stomachs sampled year‐round between 2016 and 2017 using angling, gillnetting and bottom trawling, which enhanced the spatio‐temporal coverage of cod habitats.

Chromosome‐level genome assembly of Paralithodes platypus provides insights into evolution and adaptation of king crabs

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 511-525, February 2021., 2021
Abstract The blue king crab, Paralithodes platypus, which belongs to the family Lithodidae, is a commercially and ecologically important species. However, a high‐quality reference genome for the king crab has not yet been reported. Here, we assembled the first chromosome‐level blue king crab genome, which contains 104 chromosomes and an N50 length of ...

A influência de um sangradouro na distribuição espaço-temporal do isópode Tholozodium rhombofrontalis (Isopoda, Sphaeromatidae)

open access: yesIheringia: Série Zoologia, 2018
RESUMO As descargas de água doce permanentes em praias arenosas, conhecidas como sangradouros, promovem alterações em diferentes escalas espaciais e temporais sobre as características ambientais, e consequentemente sobre as populações macrobentônicas.
