L-carnitine can improve the population growth and anti-stress ability of rotifer (Brachionus rotundiformis) under ammonia stress

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2021
Rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis is the first live food for larval fish that can generally be plagued by ammonia (AC) in intensive culture systems. Ammonia accumulates enough to cause rotifer death.

A living bdelloid rotifer from 24,000-year-old Arctic permafrost.

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
In natural, permanently frozen habitats, some organisms may be preserved for hundreds to tens of thousands of years. For example, stems of Antarctic moss were successfully regrown from an over millennium-old sample covered by ice for about 400 years1 ...

Locomotory behaviour of euryhaline rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis: The potential influence of probiotics on swimming pattern and speed

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, 2023
We evaluated the effect of probiotics on the growth and culture condition of rotifer in medium‐sized culture tanks. The influence of probiotics on the changes in swimming patterns, velocity and sinuosity indices of rotifer was also examined. The rotifers

Molecular Characterization of Rotifers and Their Potential Use in the Biological Control of Biomphalaria

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
BackgroundSchistosomiasis is one of the most important tropical parasitic diseases worldwide. Biomphalaria straminea, the intermediate host of Schistosoma mansoni, has invaded and spread to Southern China since 1974 and may pose enormous threats to ...

Elodeids, but not helophytes, increase community diversity and reduce trophic state: Case study with rotifer indices in field ponds

open access: yes, 2021
Despite the large number of ponds scattered across the landscape, there is still insufficient recognition of their functioning. This would require the development of methods for assessing this type of aquatic ecosystem, based on their environmental ...

Temporal variation of rotifer community in three climatic zones and their relationship with environmental factors

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2021
Comparative analyses of rotifer community structure in freshwater lakes among different climatic zones are limited. In this study, six freshwater lakes located in warm temperate, subtropical and tropical zones were selected to investigate the annual ...
