Strategic conservation prioritization through creating and updating the regional species of greatest conservation need list in the northeastern United States

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Biodiversity is declining globally, underscoring the need for conservation strategies informed by regional expertise. In the northeastern United States, 14 state wildlife agencies and taxonomic experts developed the Regional Species of Greatest Conservation Need (RSGCN) list, revealing that global and national datasets captured only ~55% of regionally ...

A COMPARISON OF SURVIVAL AND GROWTH IN JUVENILE ASTACUS LEPTODACTYLUS (ESCH.) AND PACIFASTACUS LENIUSCULUS (DANA) UNDER CONTROLLED CONDITIONS

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2006
The aim of this study was to compare survival and growth of juvenile narrow-clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) and signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) fed only with experimental pellets (45% of proteins, 6% of fat, 20% crude fibre) under ...

Effects of the Invasive Round Goby on Swedish Recreational Fishing Values

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The round goby, an invasive fish from the Black and Caspian Seas, has spread to Swedish waters, threatening recreational fisheries. We modeled impacts on the future recreational fishery in Sweden using data from a recreational fishing survey, and estimated effects of the round goby on other fish species. Values attached to recreational fishing

Damselfly eggs alter their development rate in the presence of an invasive alien cue but not a native predator cue

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Biological invasions are a serious problem in natural ecosystems. Local species that are potential prey of invasive alien predators can be threatened by their inability to recognize invasive predator cues.

Genetic and Ecological Management of Pacific Salmon Fisheries for the 21st Century

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Based on ecological adaptation theory, tremendous effort is being spent on measures that are eliminating salmon hatcheries and fishing opportunities with the intention of protecting wild runs deemed to be of particular genetic importance to the survival of the species.

Are the effects of an invasive crayfish on lake littoral macroinvertebrate communities consistent over time?

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2016
Management of invasive species requires assessment of their effects on recipient ecosystems. However, impact assessment of invasive species commonly lacks a long-term perspective which can potentially lead to false conclusions.

Site Fidelity, Depth Preference and Vertical Movement Patterns of Lentic and Lotic European Catfish Silurus glanis

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To study variables that may trigger the dispersion of the currently expanding European catfish in its native distribution limits, 42 individuals were captured from Upper Lake Constance (lentic) and 42 from two streaming tributaries (lotic), fitted with pressure and temperature loggers, and released at the site of capture (control: lotic or ...

The continuing spread of Pacifastacus leniusculus in Carinthia (Austria) [PDF]

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2009
Crayfish plague and introductions of non-indigenous freshwater crayfish species (NICS) have had major consequences for the survival of autochthonous crayfish populations in Europe.

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...
