THE MASS RATIO OF THE EPIPHYTIC PERIPHYTON OF THE NYÉKI-HOLT-DUNA [PDF]

open access: yesActa Geographica Debrecina. Landscape & Environment Series, 2016
The knowledge of the periphytic structure is important for the fact that the composition of epiphytic periphyton indicates the ecologically different habitats, the biological state of water-quality and its changes.

The effects of Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) on tropical stream food webs vary between two consecutive dry seasons

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Bti application altered tropical stream food‐web structure through changes in macroinvertebrate functional feeding groups. Collector‐filterers and predators showed context‐dependent responses, with clearer direct and indirect effects detected in 2016, the year with higher rainfall.

Altered photoperiod affects behaviour in a key fish grazer, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study is to address experimentally the immediate impacts of an alteration of the photoperiod, simulating an extreme artificial light pollution, on the behaviour and stress of a key grazer fish common in temperate coastal ecosystems in Europe, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada.

Consumption of periphyton and bioseston by Mozambique tilapia in aqua dams with three different substrates

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions
Periphyton-based aquaculture can reduce feed input costs. Here we characterised the periphyton and bioseston formation in aqua dams stocked with net, plastic, and stone substrates.

Impact of the invasive diatom species Cymbella janischii on riverine microbial biofilm communities and a potential role of bacterially produced zeatin

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The diatom Cymbella janischii is an invasive species in Japan, causing nuisance blooms by forming thick mats in rivers. To date, there are no documented studies on the microbiome associations in C. janischii mats or the processes that drive bloom formation.

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 ...

Changes in food‐web pathways and ecosystem functions after sidearm re‐connection in a large river (Danube, Austria)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction River regulation schemes generally led to changes in riverine assemblage composition and their trophic status, which often is reflected in a general loss or decrease of characteristic species and a concomitant increase or dominance of generalist species.

Freshwater Biodiversity Research in Brazil: Trends from a Systematic Review and Topic Modeling

open access: yesInternational Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Brazil is a megadiverse country that hosts six major biomes and a vast freshwater network. Despite this richness, research on freshwater biodiversity has been heterogeneous across regions, communities, and time, leaving significant knowledge gaps.

Periphyton pigment shifts in lakes with varying water colour: a possible monitoring method for freshwater Browning

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Despite several negative effects of browning, there are no sufficient bioindicators to monitor it. In this study, the effects of water quality on the photosynthetic pigment content of periphyton grown on artificial substrata in different depths were ...

Metagenomic Sequencing of Marine Periphyton: Taxonomic and Functional Insights into Biofilm Communities

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Periphyton communities are complex phototrophic, multispecies biofilms that develop on surfaces in aquatic environments. These communities harbor a large diversity of organisms comprising viruses, bacteria, algae, fungi, protozoans and metazoans. However,
