DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04303-0
Abstract: Little consensus exists on the role of food partitioning in the organization of tadpole assemblages. We studied trophic ecology of syntopic tadpoles through the analysis of gut contents, selectivity, and stable isotopes to assess the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/aem.01851-17
Abstract: ABSTRACT The earthworm gut is an anoxic, saccharide-rich microzone in aerated soils. The apparent degradation of diverse saccharides in the alimentary canal of the model earthworm Lumbricus terrestris is concomitant with the production of diverse… read more here.

DOI: 10.15517/rbt.v41i1.29290
Abstract: Traditionally, it has been assumed that reef fish recruitment is a density dependent process determined by adult population size and resource limitations (Sale 1978). More recent ideas on factors regulating population size include the concept… read more here.

Profiling Analysis of Filter Feeder Polypedilum (Chironomidae) Gut Contents Using eDNA Metabarcoding Following Contrasting Habitat Types—Weir and Stream
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health"
DOI: 10.3390/ijerph191710945
Abstract: We analyzed the dietary composition of Polypedilum larvae among two contrasting habitats (river and weir). Our approach was (i) to apply eDNA-based sampling to reveal the gut content of the chironomid larvae, (ii) the diversity… read more here.
