Abstract:
Patterns in spatial and trophic resource partitioning in the fish community of the Georges Bank region are identified, accounting for size-based changes in diets. During autumn and spring, this community is divided into geographic assemblages of species that have high spatial overlap. Similarity in spatial distribution is primarily related to similarity in depth preferences, and seasonal differences in species composition within assemblages are related to migrations. There is also important trophic structure within the Georges Bank community separating predators based upon prey size and locati

Abstract:
Niche partitioning studies are essential to understand the mechanisms that allow ecologically similar species to coexist. The Rhone streber (Zingel asper) and the European bullhead (Cottus gobio) are both benthic riverine fishes that consume macroinvertebrates. Both species are protected under European legislature. We focused on trophic niche partitioning between these species, as sufficient access to trophic resources is an important requirement for long-term coexistence. We used a combination of faeces metabarcoding dietary data and prey community data to evaluate dietary overlap, trophic ni

Abstract:
Coastal salt marshes serve as the margin between terrestrial and marine biomes, provide a variety of important services, and are dynamic ecosystems characterized by keystone species that shape trophic networks. In coastal salt marshes of the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the United States, marsh periwinkle snails (Littoraria irrorata) exhibit high abundance and form critical trophic pathways as important herbivores and detritivores. Specifically, snails forage on Spartina alterniflora and associated fungal growth, for which L. irrorata may act as a top-down control on plant growth. Yet, L. irror

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Neotropical frugivorous bats display a trophic structure composed of bat species with dietary preferences of core plant taxa (Artibeus-Ficus + Cecropia, Carollia-Piper, Sturnira- Solanum + Piper). This structure is hypothesized to be an ancestral trait, suggesting that similar diets would be observed throughout a species' range. However, most evidence comes from lowlands where data from montane habitats are scarce.

Abstract Freshwater (FW) aquaculture has greater potential than mariculture for intensifying production in ecologically sustainable systems that utilize available know-how and technologies.

Carp, tilapia, and catfish are the most important FW fishes used for aquaculture. They are farmed mostly in semi-intensive, open pond systems that rely heavily on ecosystem services.

Abstract Plants in the boreal forest are an important component of the ecosystem for two main reasons. First, the plants as vegetation form the physical surroundings for both herbivores and carnivores and are the basis of the physical structure of the community. Second, as primary producers, they provide the energy and nutrients to the herbivores on which higher trophic levels depend. Therefore, understanding the factors that limit the quantity and the quality of plants is fundamental.
