Introduction Driven by global climate change and coastal eutrophication, severe hypoxic events have become a primary environmental stressor in marine ecosystems, posing a critical threat to commercially vital teleosts like the golden pompano ( Trachinotus blochii ). Understanding the dimorphic physiological and microbial responses between sexes under such stress is crucial for developing targeted mitigation strategies. Methods...

In Antarctica, low temperatures favor the trapping and deposition of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), whereas the biogeochemical cycling of PAHs on the Southern Ocean adjacent to Antarctica is highly sensitive to climate change. However, very little environmental and ecological information is available on interannual PAHs variations in the surface of the Southern Ocean. From 2022 to 2024, we employed the 38 th , 39 th...

Aquatic macrophyte responses and adaptation to water depth and nutrient gradients are of critical importance for understanding the functional ecology of lakes and their restoration when degraded. However, the role of plant trait networks (PTNs), a powerful tool for decoding trait–environment–function relationships, in mediating these adaptations remains unclear, particularly across species and community scales. We conducted cr...

The genus Colaconema represents a significant group of filamentous red algae that commonly grow as epiphytes, endophytes, or epi-endophytes on a variety of economically important macroalgae, potentially affecting host health and aquaculture productivity. Although numerous Colaconema species have been described worldwide, few have been reported from China based on integrated morphological and molecular analyses. In this study,...
