Functional Dimension Reveal Impacts of Non‐Native Fishes on Native Fishes and Ecosystem FunctionalityNARA Subscribed
Anthropogenic‐mediated invasions of non‐native species are leading to biodiversity loss in many trophic groups, with specific impacts on a wide range of ecosystem functions and services. However, the impacts of non‐native species on native species and ecosystem multifunctionality are not well understood, particularly due to the lack of long‐term studies that focus on the analysis of functional and phylogenetic diversities. Usi...
Globalization has dramatically accelerated the spread of non‐native species, intensifying threats to freshwater ecosystems. While China ranks among the most heavily invaded countries, the role of non‐native species as key drivers of biodiversity changes is often overlooked in research on anthropogenic impacts. This oversight hampers the development of effective conservation and management strategies by limiting a full understa...
Investigating how multiple invasive fish species with similar ecological traits respond to different environmental conditions is crucial to understanding their successful invasion and coexistence. Here, we used stomach content analysis and stable isotope analysis to analyse the effects of water level fluctuation on the trophic niche plasticity of three dominant co‐occurring invasive tilapia species ( Coptodon zillii , Sarother...
Tilapia introduction in China: Economic boom in aquaculture versus ecological threats to ecosystemsNARA Subscribed
The introduction and use of non‐native species in aquaculture have played a central role in the development of this economic sector worldwide. Tilapia is one of the most widely introduced species in the world, and China has become the largest producer and consumer of tilapia. While non‐native tilapia in China support provisioning ecosystem services of substantial economic value, the invasion also poses potential threats to nat...
The Three Gorges Dam in the upper Yangtze River in China is the largest hydropower project in the world. Length- weight relationships (LWRs) are reported for fish species collected from three locations of the reservoir from November 2010 to October 2011. Fish were collected from the local fishing boats using 1.5 cm nylon mesh trap nets or 4, 5 and 6 cm nylon mesh gillnets (100- 120 m long × 1.4-1.5 m high). A total of 7,311 fi...
