Abstract: Sponges are commonly divided into high (HMA) and low (LMA) microbial-abundance species according to the bacterial biomass in their tissue. These two groups reflect distinct aquiferous structures and feeding strategies. In the NW Mediterranean coralligenous… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00265-019-2664-1
Abstract: Time is considered a resource in limited supply, and temporal niche separation is one of the most common strategies that allow ecologically similar species to live in sympatry. Mechanisms of temporal niche separation are understudied… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pocean.2016.08.002
Abstract: Abstract The distribution and reproductive traits of copepods of the genus Clausocalanus were investigated during the Atlantic Meridional Transect cruise AMT-15, in September–October 2004 to estimate their ecological niches and secondary production in the epipelagic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/femsec/fiad049
Abstract: The hydrogen-dependent and methylotrophic order Methanomassiliicoccales consists of the families Methanomethylophilaceae and Methanomassiliicoccaceae. While Methanomethylophilaceae are comparatively well studied, there is a lack of knowledge on Methanomassiliicoccaceae. In this 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing based… read more here.
