Fishmeal replacement by periphyton reduces the fish in fish out ratio and alimentation cost in gilthead sea bream Sparus aurata

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Aquaculture threatens natural resources by fishing down the sea to supply fishmeal. Alternative protein sources in aquafeeds can provide a solution, particularly those that are waste from other operations and thereby reduce feed production costs.

Ranking stressor impacts on periphyton structure and function with mesocosm experiments and environmental-change forecasts. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Streams are being subjected to physical, chemical, and biological stresses stemming from both natural and anthropogenic changes to the planet. In the face of limited time and resources, scientists, resource managers, and policy makers need ways to rank ...

Periphyton effects on bacterial assemblages and harmful cyanobacterial blooms in a eutrophic freshwater lake: a mesocosm study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Periphyton comprises a broad range of autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms that grow on submerged surfaces in aquatic environments. To investigate the ecological roles of periphyton and their symbiotic bacterial assemblages related to the control of ...

Unifying microorganisms and macrograzers in intertidal rocky shore ecological networks. [PDF]

open access: yesEcology
Abstract Over the past decades, our understanding of the vital role microbes play in ecosystem processes has greatly expanded. However, we still have limited knowledge about how microbial communities interact with larger organisms. Many existing representations of microbial interactions are based on co‐occurrence patterns, which do not provide clear ...

Wastewater microorganisms impact microbial diversity and important ecological functions of stream periphyton

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Wastewater treatment plant effluents can impact microbial communities in receiving streams. However, little is known about the role of microorganisms in wastewater as opposed to other wastewater constituents, such as nutrients and micropollutants.

Impacts of warming on top-down and bottom-up controls of periphyton production [PDF]

open access: goldScientific Reports, 2018
Global warming profoundly impacts the functioning of aquatic ecosystems. Nonetheless, the effect of warming on primary producers is poorly understood, especially periphyton production, which is affected both directly and indirectly by temperature ...

Herbicide-Induced Shifts in the Periphyton Community Composition Indirectly Affect Feeding Activity and Physiology of the Gastropod Grazer Physella acuta.

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Technology, 2021
Herbicides are well known for unintended effects on freshwater periphyton communities. Large knowledge gaps, however, exist regarding indirect herbicide impacts on primary consumers through changes in the quality of periphyton as a food source (i.e ...

Global mapping of freshwater nutrient enrichment and periphyton growth potential

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Periphyton (viz. algal) growth in many freshwater systems is associated with severe eutrophication that can impair productive and recreational use of water by billions of people.

Denitrification Associated with Periphyton Communities [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1981
Scrapings of decomposing Cladophora sp. mats (periphyton) covering stream bed rocks produced N 2 O when incubated under N 2 plus 15% C 2 H 2 . Denitrification (N 2 O formation) was enhanced by NO

Phosphorus and metals immobilization by periphyton in a shallow eutrophic reservoir

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2021
: Aim: This study evaluated and compared the changes in the Total Phosphorus (TP) and metals (Cd, Cu, Ni and Pb) contents and accumulation rates in the periphyton on different substrate types (PET and glass) in wet and dry periods in a shallow eutrophic
