Temporal community change in stream ecosystems varies by assemblage across US climates

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem properties are temporally dynamic. Temporal variability has been shown to decrease with increasing levels of biological organization (i.e. from population to community and ecosystem levels).

Social modulation of androgen levels in male teleost fish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Androgens are classically thought of as the sex steroids controlling male reproduction. However, in recent years evidence has accumulated showing that androgens can also be affected by the interactions between conspecifics, suggesting reciprocal ...

Gonadal Development–Related Genes and a Male‐Specific Genetic Marker Identified in the Endangered Sichuan Taimen (Hucho bleekeri)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analyses were used to validate gonadal development–related genes and to identify a sex‐specific molecular marker in Hucho bleekeri. ABSTRACT Sex determination and differentiation represent fundamental topics in reproductive biology. Sichuan taimen (Hucho bleekeri), a first‐class national protected fish species in

Inferring phylogenetic structure and ancient hybridization within Salmonidae using next-generation sequencing

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Phylogenetic studies focusing on Salmonidae have thus far revealed significant drawbacks to elucidate some of the interspecific relationships within the family, due to limited number of markers, conflicting phylogenetic signals and hybridization events ...

Environmental DNA Detects Remaining Populations of Endangered Stream Salmon (Sichuan Taimen: Hucho bleekeri Kimura Salmonidae) in the Qinling Mountains

open access: yesFishes, 2023
Sichuan taimen (Hucho bleekeri Salmonidae) populations are declining, and the status of remnant populations in the Qinling Mountains is poorly known. In this study, eDNA and creel netting were used to estimate the distributions of Sichuan taimen in two ...

Two Species of Canine Babesia in Australia: Detection and Characterization by PCR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The haemoprotozoan Babesia canis has been recognized in Australia for many years, and a second, smaller species has recently been discovered. Amplification and sequencing of a partial region of the 18S small subunit ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene enabled ...

Speciation of European bullheads (Cottus spp.): The next problem for taxonomy of northern freshwater fishes

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract High morphological and ecological diversity displayed by European bullheads led Freyhof et al. (2005) to describe 15 nominal species. However, the basis for declaring these nominal species is contentious due to a lack of rigorous statistical analysis of morphological variations among populations, limitations in the inferences made from ...

Geographical distribution of Gyrodactylus salaris Malmberg, 1957 (Monogenea, Gyrodactylidae)

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Gyrodactylus salaris Malmberg, 1957 is an OIE (Office International des Epizooties)-listed parasitic pathogen and had until the current study been reported from 19 countries across Europe, although many of these records require confirmation ...

Spot sampling of nutrient concentrations in the Puarenga catchment, Rotorua [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Centre for Biodiversity and Ecology Research was approached by Tūhourangi Tribal Authority for assistance with measuring water quality in streams in the Puarenga Stream catchment. Water sampling was subsequently undertaken on 18 July 2011 and samples

Lack of Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) Susceptibility to the Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus (ISAV) Using In Vivo Challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) can cause disease and mortality in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). The virus is endemic in several regions including the Atlantic coast of Canada. Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are increasingly utilised as cleaner fish to control sea lice levels in Atlantic salmon farms.
