BioEssays, Volume 44, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022 Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) refers to disruption of viable pollen production in plants as the result of mitonuclear interactions. CMS is rare outside plants. We hypothesize that the system of doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI) of mitochondria in bivalves originated as a CMS system and propose different ways to test our hypothesis.

Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022 Abstract Exotic species invasions have profound effects on native ecosystems, with the ecological effects of non‐native plants being especially pervasive. We investigated the impacts of a plant invasion on benthic invertebrate assemblages in intertidal wetlands of the Yellow River Delta, comparing benthic communities associated with exotic Spartina ...

Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 6, June 2021., 2021 Abstract River biodiversity is threatened globally by hydropower dams, and there is a need to understand how dam management favors certain species while filtering out others. We examined aquatic invertebrate communities within the tailwaters 0–24 km downstream of seven large hydropower dams in the Colorado River Basin of the western United States.

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 3, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021 Abstract The intentional introduction of native cold‐water trout into high‐elevation fishless lakes has been considered a tool to build resilience to climate change (i.e., assisted colonization); however, ecological impacts on recipient communities are understudied.

Survey of Ostreid Herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) Susceptible Hosts Based on in situ LAMP Technique
Progress in Fishery Sciences, 2023 Ostreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) has caused a serious economic loss to the global bivalve aquaculture industry. Given its wide host range and the frequent emergence of mutated strains, OsHV-1 infection threatens mollusk production.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 29, Issue 23, Page 4588-4604, December 2020., 2020 Abstract The deep seafloor serves as a reservoir of biodiversity in the global ocean, with >80% of invertebrates at abyssal depths still undescribed. These diverse and remote deep‐sea communities are critically under‐sampled and increasingly threatened by anthropogenic impacts, including future polymetallic nodule mining.

Drivers of long‐term invertebrate community stability in changing Swedish lakes
Global Change Biology, Volume 26, Issue 3, Page 1259-1270, March 2020., 2020 We assess the long‐term stability of invertebrate communities in 105 lakes in the Swedish “lakescape” by quantifying stability at the individual lake level as well as the environmental and physical variables affecting this stability at the ecoregion level.

Stream macro-invertebrate diversity of the Phobjikha Valley, Bhutan
Journal of Threatened Taxa, 2018 Macro-invertebrates form an integral part of aquatic systems, and assessment of macro-invertebrate communities is one of the best ways to monitor the health of a stream.
