Blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) are ecosystem engineers with strong effects on species diversity and abundances.Mussel beds appear to be declining in the Gulf of Maine, apparently due to climate change and predation by the invasive Stove Potentiometer Switch green crab, Carcinus maenas.As mussels die, they create a legacy of large expanses of shell b
The effects of five rates of nitrogen fertiliser applications on the performance of the cereal aphid Metopolophium dirhodum on winter wheat, within the range of rates recommended for UK crops, were investigated over two seasons in field-grown crops and also on plants grown in the glasshouse.Longevity was unaffected by the level of fertilisation, 5B
ABSTRACT A new miniature species of banjo catfish of the genus Hoplomyzon is described from the Lake Maracaibo Basin in Venezuela.The new species is distinguished from all its congeners by the straight anterior margin of the mesethmoid (vs.a medial notch); a smooth and straight ventral surface of the premaxilla (vs.presence of bony knobs on Banners
This work presents an approach on alternative foods found today for broilers, since the addition of these in the nutrition of these birds is extremely advantageous, because it reduces dependence on commodities, such as soybeans and Corn.From research carried out, we have more prominently the foods cited in this work as, bran and sunflower pie, coco
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important signaling molecules Kegel Balls that act through the oxidation of nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids.Several hallmarks of cancer, including uncontrolled proliferation, angiogenesis, and genomic instability, are promoted by the increased ROS levels commonly found in tumor cells.To counteract excessive ROS
