Appetite in captivity - feeding studies of the red sea cucumber Parastichopus tremulus

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The deposit feeding sea cucumber Parastichopus tremulus is an underutilised resource in North Atlantic waters. Geographically it is distributed from the Barents Sea in the north to the Canary Islands in the south. At present performance of P. tremulus in

A genome-wide investigation of the worldwide invader Sargassum muticum shows high success albeit (almost) no genetic diversity [PDF]

, 2019
Twenty years of genetic studies of marine invaders have shown that successful invaders are often characterized by native and introduced populations displaying similar levels of genetic diversity.

Carbon Materials Prepared from Invading Pelagic Sargassum for Supercapacitors’ Electrodes

Molecules, 2023
Since 2011, substantial amounts of pelagic Sargassum algae have washed up along the Caribbean beaches and the Gulf of Mexico, leading to negative impacts on the economy and the environment of those areas. Hence, it is now crucial to develop strategies to

Acidification increases abundances of Vibrionales and Planctomycetia associated to a seaweed-grazer system: potential consequences for disease and prey digestion efficiency [PDF]

, 2018
Ocean acidification significantly affects marine organisms in several ways, with complex interactions. Seaweeds might benefit from rising CO2 through increased photosynthesis and carbon acquisition, with subsequent higher growth rates.
