Shifts in Assembly Rules and Loss of Zooplankton Functional Diversity Across Hypereutrophic Fishponds

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 12, December 2025.
Functional diversity of zooplankton declined sharply with increasing eutrophication in hypereutrophic fishponds, despite stable species richness. Community assembly shifted from competition to habitat filtering, leading to functional homogenization (redundancy) and altered interactions among functional guilds. Ponds with total phosphorus below 300 μg/L

Ecological and Genetic Insights Into Antarctic Fairy Shrimp, Branchinecta gaini Daday, 1910 (Branchiopoda: Anostraca) Populations on King George Island, Antarctica

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The Antarctic fairy shrimp (Branchinecta gaini) is the largest inland animal in Antarctica and a key component of its freshwater ecosystems. Despite its broad distribution, little is known about its population structure, habitat tolerance, and potential vulnerability to climate change. This study investigated the occurrence, genetic structure,

High‐frequency sampling unveils biotic and abiotic drivers of rapid phytoplankton morphological changes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 5, Page 2528-2541, December 2025.
Summary Phytoplankton, as primary producers, play a key role in aquatic ecosystems. Their community turnover is shaped by morphological traits that enable adaptation to diverse abiotic and biotic factors. Yet, the temporal scale of these dynamics remains poorly understood due to limited high‐frequency sampling studies.

An experimental test on the effects of dispersal from different habitat sources on community structure

open access: yesEcology, Volume 106, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Biological interactions, disturbances, and demographic stochasticity often drive population declines and local extinctions. Dispersal can counterbalance these drivers by rescuing small populations or facilitating recolonization. Using freshwater zooplankton in experimental mesocosms, we tested three hypotheses: (1) isolated sites would ...

Marine rotifera

open access: yes, 2015
I Rotiferi fanno parte della meiofauna, cioè l'insieme di metazoi che abita i sedimenti marini e d'acqua dolce. Di dimensioni microscopiche, sono organismi che svolgono un ruolo fondamentale nei processi dell'ecosistema marino legati al ciclo dei nutrienti, alla mineralizzazione e al trasporto dei sedimenti.

Fake Webs, Real Results: Artificial Spiderwebs for eDNA Collection

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
We designed artificial spiderwebs to see if they are as good as natural spiderwebs at capturing airborne DNA. In comparison to water eDNA methods, both natural and artificial spiderwebs revealed a distinct signature of terrestrial communities, while artificial webs served as a good proxy for natural webs ‐ without the negative impacts on spiders and ...

Zooplankton Community Composition in the White and Blue Niles Near Khartoum: Combining Molecular and Morphological Approaches

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of bulk zooplankton from the White and Blue Nile near Khartoum recovered 40 genus/species‐level taxa belonging to Cladocera, Copepoda, and Rotifera, representing 53%–72% of ASVs. Rotifers were the most diverse group, and low Cladocera read counts likely reflect primer mismatch despite similar morphological ...

Long-term changes in the trophic state of Suwalki lakes – an analysis by means of indices based on abundance and composition of their rotifer fauna

open access: yesLimnological Review, 2016
Rotifer abundance and species composition in lakes of the Suwalki Landscape Park were studied in the years 1983–1985, 2009, 2012 and 2015. Rotifer trophic state indices (TSIROT) were used to assess changes in the trophic state of the studied lakes.
