Ecosystem, spatial and trophic dimensions of niche partitioning among freshwater fish predators

open access: yesMovement Ecology
Background Niche partitioning allows species to diversify resource utilisation and space allocation and reduce interspecific competition. Variations in abiotic and biotic conditions in different ecosystems may further influence resource availability and ...

Soil‐derived, gut‐dominant generalist bacteria shape the fitness of folivorous larvae

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Whether Lepidoptera harbor a conserved core gut microbiome has long remained contentious. Through large‐scale microbiome profiling of folivorous larvae, their host plants, and associated soils across three climatically distinct regions of China, we identify two soil‐derived generalist bacteria, Ralstonia insidiosa and Delftia sp., that colonize 97.92 ...

Ionic liquids: structure–toxicity relationships, predictive toxicology, and sustainable design

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ionic liquids (ILs) have often been described as green alternatives to conventional solvents because of their negligible vapor pressure and highly tunable properties. However, low volatility does not necessarily translate into environmental safety, as their biological and ecological effects are strongly influenced by molecular structure.

The Single, the Whole, and the Pooled: Implications of Tissue Choice for Stable Isotope Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the exciting era of non‐invasive tissue sampling and data reuse via open access databases, it is increasingly challenging to ensure comparability of sample types for stable isotope analysis in ecology. According to the theoretical predictions about the changes in the stable isotope values between prey and consumers and tissue turnover rates,

Unveiling vertical migration patterns of the mesopelagic fish Ceratoscopelus warmingii in cold seep ecosystems: A trophic niche perspective

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Ceratoscopelus warmingii, a common mesopelagic fish in cold seep ecosystems, plays a crucial role in transferring energy and materials between different water layers, thereby influencing deep-sea carbon cycling and storage.
