Collection, handling and care of cephalopod eggsNARA Subscribed
Research on cephalopod early ontogeny has significantly advanced in recent decades, including embryo organogenesis and neurogenesis and early behavioural adaptations, particularly in commercially important and coastal species. Within this context, here we compiled current knowledge on the collection, handling and care under experimental conditions and monitoring in the field of cephalopod eggs and egg masses. It covers field o...
The early intestinal response of Mugil cephalus to fishmeal replacement with alternative protein sources under biofloc technology (BFT) was assessed. Juvenile mullet (82.68 ± 0.05 g) were distributed among three dietary treatments with decreasing fishmeal inclusion levels of 15%, 5%, and 0%, corresponding to FM15, FM5, and FM0, respectively. After 27 days of feeding, intestinal samples were analyzed for microbiota composition,...
Soil Microbial Diversity and Network Organization Respond to Land Use and Agricultural Inputs WorldwideNARA Subscribed
Soil microbiomes are critical for ecosystem functioning, yet the global influences of climate and agricultural practices on their diversity and structure remain incompletely characterized. Here we analyzed 1921 soil samples from 33 countries worldwide across diverse biomes to assess how climate gradients and agricultural inputs, including pesticides and fertilizers, shape prokaryotic and fungal communities. We found that micro...
Top‐Down and Bottom‐Up Effects on Insect Herbivores Under Global Change—A Meta‐AnalysisNARA Subscribed
Global environmental change is driving widespread insect declines, yet underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood, particularly when mediated by trophic interactions. Many studies purportedly test global change stressors on insect herbivores mediated via their host plants (bottom‐up) and natural enemies (top‐down), but we lack a comprehensive understanding of overall effects. Here, we performed a meta‐analysis of 246 paper...
Anything you can eat, I can eat better: Evidence of generalism from species to individual level in an insect herbivoreNARA Subscribed
Most insect herbivores specialize on a few host plants; however, there are a minority of highly generalized species capable of feeding on hundreds of hosts. Generalism could emerge as a property of the species as a whole, while individuals would still exhibit greater specialization at more specific organizational levels. Yet, we lack studies with generalist insect herbivores directly testing this prediction. Here, we test if t...
The use of eco-organic ingredients as a source of protein in aquaculture diets needs important attention due to the growing demand for organic seafood products. The present study evaluated the effects of fish meal substitution by different organic ingredients on the growth, body composition, retention efficiency, enzyme activity, and nutrient digestibility of white shrimp Penaeus vannamei. The four dietary formulations tested...
Cryptotephra from a ~120 ka Tondano eruption in a sediment core from Lake Towuti (Indonesia)NARA Subscribed
Southeast Asia is one of the most volcanically active regions in the world, yet their long‐term eruptive history has been comparatively little studied. In particular, little work has explored the potential of sedimentary archives to record distal cryptotephra, which may help in identifying some of the region's larger Quaternary eruptions. Here, we report the finding of cryptotephra in a sediment core from Lake Towuti (Sulawesi...
