Adverse effects of cypermethrin on golden apple snails (Pomacea canaliculata) and their eggs, and application of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as biomarker [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2022
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cypermethrin on hatching rate of golden apple snail eggs, mortality rate of the golden apple snails, and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) expression applied as a bio-indicator. The results showed that cypermethrin

Experimental evidence of internal transport of invasive apple snail eggs by waterbirds [PDF]

Aquatic Invasions
The potential role of waterbirds in the dispersal of invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata was evaluated by feeding their eggs to mallards Anas platyrhynchos and quantifying the recovery of intact and viable eggs in their faeces and regurgitations. A
