Are hatchery-bred sandfish Holothuria scabra juveniles perceptive to potential food and predation?
Restocking and mariculture of hatchery-bred sandfish Holothuria scabra are practiced in some countries to restore depleting wild populations and increase the global dried trepang or beche-de-mer supply. However, releasing cultured juveniles into the wild

ABSTRACT Parasites affect hosts in interaction with the entire ecological community. This is particularly evident for trophically transmitted parasites, such as Dibothriocephalus tapeworms, which infect multiple intermediate fish hosts, potentially reducing their fitness and suitability for human consumption.

Refilling an empty niche with proliferating CD8+ T cells can cause autoimmune disease, say Tajima et al. (page 1019). Figure 1 Autoimmune colitis (top) caused by homeostatically proliferating CD8+ T cells is resolved in mice injected with anti–IL-6 antibody (bottom). Infusion of naive T cells into an environment where there are
