Ophiocordyceps , the largest genus within the family Ophiocordycipitaceae, is known for its parasitism on many insect hosts. Recent advances in global biodiversity research have enhanced the classification and ecological understanding of this genus, underscoring its pivotal role in global ecosystems. As the type genus of Ophiocordycipitaceae, Ophiocordyceps has undergone extensive taxonomic revision based on comprehensive stud...

This study aimed to induce a shift in a bacterial community by adding substrate into a biofloc system to characterize this shift and estimate its benefits in improving water quality and aquatic animal growth. We compared the bacterial communities between two biofloc systems, either with (sB treatment) or without (nB treatment) the addition of substrate (elastic solid packing filler), and we also analyzed the effects of the shi...
