Effect of organic fertilization on the occurrence of Nodularia spumigena blooms in Penaeus vannamei shrimp ponds under a biofloc systemNARA Subscribed
Blooms of potentially toxic cyanobacteria cause high losses in aquaculture worldwide. The species Nodularia spumigena produces toxin capable of significantly affecting feeding, growth rates, and mortality of shrimp in marine farms. As a result, methods for controlling cyanobacterial blooms can increase the production success. The present study was conducted on a commercial scale using six 600 m 3 ponds stocked with 70 shrimp m...
Predictive validation of the repeated low-dose reserpine rodent model of parkinsonismNARA Subscribed
L-DOPA (LD) is the gold-standard treatment of motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD), conventionally used to prove the predictive value of PD animal models. This study aimed to investigate the predictive validity of an adaptation of the conventional reserpine model of PD: the repeated low-dose reserpine administration in rodents, which promotes progressive motor impairment in catalepsy, vacuous chewing behavior tests, and...
Ten questions on indoor greening and environmental qualityNARA Subscribed
Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and noninvasive monitoring techniques that can gather large amounts of data cost‐effectively at various ecological scales, from local to large spatial scales. These data can then be analyzed to inform stakeholders and decision‐makers. One such technique is passive acoustic monitoring, which is commonly coupled with automatic identification of animal sp...
Population structure and divergence time among East Greenland and West Greenland/Eastern Canadian Arctic narwhals, Monodon monocerosNARA Subscribed
The narwhal ( Monodon monoceros ) is an Arctic endemic odontocete that is particularly sensitive to climate change. Narwhals are also a key species in subsistence hunts in both Canada and Greenland. Understanding the genetic population structure is crucial to help management authorities set sustainable harvest quotas to avoid overexploitation of vulnerable narwhal groups. Additionally, estimates of population divergence times...
