Abstract:
La biologie de reproduction de Gammarus lupex est caractérisée par une phase de gardiennage précopulatoire couramment analysée comme une stratégie compétitive développée par les mâles afin d'assurer leur reproduction. Une homogamie en fonction de la taille est fréquemment observée lors de cette phase de gardiennage, tel que les grands mâles sont appariés aux grandes femelles, et les mâles d'une taille moindre aux femelles plus petites. Un suivi sur le terrain de plusieurs populations naturelles, complété par des expériences au laboratoire ont permis de préciser le ou les processus responsables

Abstract:
The sucess of invasive species is said to depend upon the availability of resources, interactions with natural enemies and the abiotic environment. However, the behavioural interactions also play an important role. This thesis uses the freshwater amphipod Gammarus pulex (L.) to investigate the ecology and behaviour of an invasive species, with particular emphasis on female reproduction.

Abstract:
The aim of this work was to understand the bioconcentration potential of pharmaceuticals in a freshwater invertebrate. The novelty of this work lies in several parts of which the most important was that a computational model was developed to successfully predict bioconcentration in invertebrates, which has not been achieved previously. For the first time, a developed analytical method using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used to determine the occurrence of pharmaceuticals in Gammarus pulex across several tributaries of the River Thames (London, UK).

<p>I rinnande vatten, så som bäckar och åar, har Gammarus pulex en viktig ställning i näringsväven. Arten bidrar till att bryta ner organiskt material och göra energin i detta tillgänglig för andra organismer. G. pulex är dessutom en viktig föda för ett stort antal predatorer. Flera studier visar att G. pulex reagerar på olika temperaturer. Tillväxthastighet, livslängd, reproduktion, aktivitet och syreförbrukning är exempel på karaktärer som påverkas av temperaturen. Ingen studie har tidigare behandlat om anläggningen av exokutikula påverkas av temperaturen. En höjd temperatur ökar tillväxthas

Abstract:
The structure of populations has been studied for many years and there have been three main factors that have been suggested as the cause for present-day distributions of species, those being environment, biology and history. With the use of molecular data and advanced phylogeographic approaches it is now possible to distinguish between the main causes of population structuring. The present study considers the extent of population structure in G. pulex on regional (UK) and large geographic (Europe) scales using studies of molecular genetic (allozymes, mtDNA sequencing and microsatellites) and

Abstract:
Increased releases of cadmium to the aquatic environment have raised concern over the potential for adverse impacts on freshwater organisms in affected aquatic bodies.

Endpoints studied encompassed molecular, cellular, physiological and behavioural changes, to enable a comprehensive analysis of the effects of the organism.

The prevalence of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in lotic habitats is increasing, with the main source of these contaminants being effluent from waste water treatment works (WwTW). There is still much uncertainty about the impacts of these PPCPs at environmentally relevant concentrations and their potential effects on populations. This thesis provides an evaluation into the effects of WwTW, their effluent, and the PPCP they contain on a typical and important freshwater invertebrate, Gammarus pulex, using field and laboratory observations.

This study aimed to explore the response of the freshwater amphipod Gammarus pulex to PGEs.

Parasites can structure communities and may impact on resource competitive interactions in novel communities. The amphipod Gammarus pulex is invasive in Ireland and in low land river stretches has displaced the native congener Gammarus duebeni celticus. Parasitism may facilitate invasion success by the more efficient use of resources. The functional response (the relationship between prey density and prey consumption) is a means of predicting the likely impact of an invader.

Contamination of freshwaters is of concern because of its effect on ecosystem health. The effect of contamination can be assessed at all levels of biological organisation, from the ecosystem level to the molecular level. At the biochemical level, enzymes that are involved in the detoxification of organic chemical contaminants are useful as markers of contaminant exposure as they are often one of the first systems to respond to chemical exposure. Furthermore, changes in the activity of these enzymes may be indicative of effects at higher levels of biological organisation. In this study, the use
