The escalating problem of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) pollution in aquatic environments poses a significant threat to the ovarian tissue and reproductive capacity of fish, hindering the development of the aquaculture industry. However, the combined effects of Cu and Cd on fish gonadal development remain unclear. In this study, the fish species Nile tilapia was stressed with rearing water containing 300 μg/L Cu2+ and 100 μg/L...

Wucai ( Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis var. rosularis Tsen) is a subspecies of Brassica campe stris , is a kind of cold-tolerant vegetable widely cultivated in the Yangtze-Huai River Basin of China. To breed new varieties of resistance to stress, it is necessary to study the tolerance of Resistance to different stresses. Transcriptomic data showed that exogenous application of 2, 4-epbrassinolide (EBR) significantly inc...

Barnacles and bivalves are two well-known sessile invertebrates that play important roles in marine ecosystems. Microplastic (MP) pollution has attracted widespread attention. Barnacles and wild bivalves are smaller than farmed individuals; thus, they may be more sensitive to MPs. However, less is known about the abundance and spatial distribution of MPs in wild bivalves along with the coastal areas of China. This study evalua...
