High-density, intensive aquaculture has led to the deterioration of the aquatic environment, which compromises the survival, immune function and disease resistance of aquatic animals. This study investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with different levels of Macleaya cordata extract (MCE) on growth performance, muscle composition, antioxidant capacity, immune function, and stress resistance in red claw crayfish (C...

Plants face a fundamental trade‐off between acquiring resources for growth or interspecific competition and simultaneously investing in anti‐consumer defenses. These selective pressures shape species' life history strategies and promote stable coexistence. However, the specific roles of distinct consumer groups, particularly the often‐overlooked oomycetes, in driving growth–defense trade‐offs and sustaining plant diversity rem...
