ABSTRACT Seaweed is multicellular marine macroalgae that enhances the immunity of aquatic organisms. The study was designed to assess the ethanolic extract (EtOH) extracted from red seaweed (Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis) on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to evaluate growth, immunity and haematological parameters.

Temperature and acidification variability reduce physiological performance in the intertidal zone porcelain crabPetrolisthes cinctipes [PDF]
We show here that increased variability of temperature and pH synergistically negatively affects the energetics of intertidal zone crabs. Under future climate scenarios, coastal ecosystems are projected to have increased extremes of low tide-associated thermal stress and ocean acidification-associated low pH, the individual or interactive effects of ...

Latitudinal thermal gradient effect on the cost of living of the intertidal porcelain crab Petrolisthes granulosus [PDF]
Species with wide latitudinal distributions are exposed to significant abiotic gradients throughout their geographic range. Thermal gradients are especially important for ectothermic spe- cies inhabiting the intertidal zone because they affect their life history traits and fitness.

Abstract The present research evaluates the performance of the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) (initial weight 11.5 ± 0.07 g) with biofloc technology. For this purpose, spent grains (malted barley) from the brewing industry after aerobic fermentation were used, as both a carbon source (suspended solids) and partial substitute for the diets at 0 ...

Identification of proteins interacting with lactate dehydrogenase in claw muscle of the porcelain crab Petrolisthes cinctipes [PDF]
Biochemical adaptation of enzymes involves conservation of activity, stability and affinity across a wide range of intracellular and environmental conditions. Enzyme adaptation by alteration of primary structure is well known, but the roles of protein-protein interactions in enzyme adaptation are less well understood.

Classification, Biodiversity and Conservation of Marine Commercial Crabs of India [PDF]
One of the best known and most intensely studied groups is the true crabs of the infraorder Brachyura. Brachyuran crabs belong to the Order Decapoda, the most diverse group of crustaceans alive today (Ng et al., 2008).

Species composition and ecological relationships of icthyofauna on artificial Liberty Ship reefs off Port Aransas, Texas : final report submitted to the Texas Coastal and Marine Council in partial fulfillment of IAC (78-79)-0869 [PDF]
Submitted August 1978Five cruises were made to the Liberty Ship Reef off Port Aransas, Texas in June and July 1978. Collecting procedures, which included sampling by fish trap, hook and line, and long line, were relatively unchanged from previous trips ...

The aggregation effect of offshore mussel farming on pelagic fishes
As well as adding hard structure to the seabed, mussel aquaculture adds rope droppers and anchor lines to the water column, where such structure would otherwise be absent. This paper aims to monitor the effects of mussel headlines on the pelagic fish community over time, as well as to investigate whether there is an interaction between the age of ...

Metabolism, Consumption Rates, and Scope for Growth of Porcelain Crab (Petrolisthes galathinus)
Porcelain crabs Petrolisthes galathinus (Bosc, 1802) can be found at high densities in oyster reefs. To examine effects of diet on metabolism, crabs (N = 32) were fed Artemia salina nauplii, mixed microalgae, or algal biofilm extract, or left unfed. Oxygen consumption, ammonia excretion, food consumption rate, and absorption efficiency were determined ...

Projected ocean temperatures impair key proteins used in vision of octopus hatchlings
The early life stages of species are especially sensitive to environmental stressors including the current human‐driven rise in global temperatures. As proteins play crucial roles in regulating normal physiological functions, analysing changes in protein abundance in response to thermal stress can offer valuable insights into a species' ability to ...
