Pacific white shrimp ( Litopenaeus vannamei ) are among the most important aquaculture species but are highly susceptible to Vibrio infections. Novel disease management strategies are necessary. Previous studies have reported that peracetic acid (PAA) is an effective disinfectant, but its application in shrimp aquaculture remains underexplored. This study aimed to determine the median lethal concentration (LC 50 ) of PAA at tw...

Over the years, the intensification of shrimp Penaeus vannamei production has brought challenges such as disease outbreaks and increases in the nutrient loading of effluents. To be more environmentally friendly as production systems intensified, it became necessary to create systems with a high degree of biosecurity and toward efficiency in water and land use. Thus, microbial‐based systems, such as the biofloc, were pioneered...

At large scales, the mechanisms underpinning stability in natural communities may vary in importance due to changes in species composition, mean abundance, and species richness. Here we link species characteristics (niche positions) and community characteristics (richness and abundance) to evaluate the importance of stability mechanisms in 156 butterfly communities monitored across three European countries and spanning five bi...
