Trophic network and food web characteristics in a tropical monsoonal estuary: A comparison with other estuarine systems [PDF]

, 2020
774-789A mass-balance trophic model for Zuari, a monsoon-influenced tropical Indian estuary, was constructed to understand trophic organization, to measure the ecosystem indicators and to assess the state of the ecosystem maturity and stability.

A Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Atlas of the Ovine Rumen Microbiome Characterizes Lineage‐Specific Metabolic Shifts Associated with Host Heat Tolerance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An optimized single‐cell transcriptomic framework profiles over 60 000 cells to map the ovine rumen microbiome, partitioning the ecosystem into seven cross‐species functional clusters. In heat‐resistant hosts, a lineage‐specific metabolic shift in Anaerovibrio lipolyticus toward a highly glycolytic phenotype contributes to a “nutritional sparing ...

SCALE INSECTS (Hemiptera, Sternorrhyncha, Coccoidea) ON ORNAMENTAL PLANTS IN THE FIELD IN POLAND

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2011
Thirty-three species were recorded from various ornamental field plants, representing 23.08% of the native Polish scale insects fauna. These species belong to 6 families, namely: Asterolecaniidae, Coccidae, Diaspididae, Eriococcidae, Kermesidae and ...

Ciliates in the plankton of the shallow zone of the Rybinsk Reservoir in spring: long-term changes in the community structure and the contribution of ciliates to the formation of the total biomass of the plankton community

Трансформация экосистем
In spring (April 28‒May16, 2022) plankton of the shallow-water zone of the Rybinsk Reservoir, the biomass of large, predatory ciliates with symbiotic algae was 5‒8 times lower than that in the periods of late April‒May of 1971 and 1977, and their share ...

Trophic links of the chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) in transformed forest ecosystems of North-Eastern Ukraine

Biosystems Diversity, 2020
The сhaffinch (Fringilla coelebs Linnaeus, 1758; Passeriformes, Fringillidae) is one of the most colourful forest species of birds living in Europe, West Asia and North Africa. The diet of this species was studied as a contribution to the conservation of

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...
