Gelatinous and soft-bodied zooplankton (GZ) have long been considered to have low energetic value and are insufficient to sustain higher trophic levels. However, the nutritional...

Here we investigate differences on the energetic strategy of thread drifters (3-4mm) and sedentary settlers (9-10mm) of Cerastoderma edule over a wide range of salinities (3, 5,...

Viminella flagellum and Dentomuricea meteor specimens were collected from scientific longline fishing in the Condor Seamount (38˚08′N, 29˚05′W). Food incorporation of two...

Study of the diversity of bacteria present in sponges and marine sediment, by 16s rRNA gene sequencing

Snail (Bellamya chinensis), crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus; Procambarus clarkii), and sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus; L. macrochirus) sampling occurred primarily over four dates...

Between 2 and 6 littoral sediment samples were collected in 2018 and 2019 from nearshore (1-2 m depth) in each lake using a dredge (Wildco Petite Ponar Stainless Steel Grab) and...

Climate change and anthropogenic disturbances, among other factors, can change the seawater stoichiometry (C/N/P) and consequently elemental ratios of phytoplankton. This change...

Total phosphatases in hypoxia-tolerant marine bivalves, namely, the blue mussel Mytilus edulis, the Arctic quahog Arctica islandica and the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas,...

Mitochondrial Complex IV in hypoxia-tolerant marine bivalves, namely, the blue mussel Mytilus edulis, the Arctic quahog Arctica islandica and the Pacific oyster Crassostrea...

Serine/threonine protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) in hypoxia-tolerant marine bivalves, namely, the blue mussel Mytilus edulis, the Arctic quahog Arctica...

Mitochondrial Complex I in hypoxia-tolerant marine bivalves, namely, the blue mussel Mytilus edulis, the Arctic quahog Arctica islandica and the Pacific oyster Crassostrea...

We aimed to investigate the cellular and chemical response of the chemically defended sponge Aplysina aerophoba (Phylum Porifera: Class Demospongiae) to grazing by its...

Histopathological damage and localisation of Vibrio aestuarianus in diverse oyster tissues were studied on experimentally infected animals by histology and immunohistochemistry...

RNA/DNA ratio was measured using fluorometry at 525 nm excitation and 600 nm emission (SprectraMax M2 microplate reader).

Increasing concentration of biologically active pharmaceutical compounds can affect marine organisms. The bioavailability and environmental stability of these compounds make...
