We present a genome assembly from an individual female Heart and Dart moth, (Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 725.10 megabases.

Although the technique can be successful, it is costly and can have unintended effects on the fish being transported. This study investigates whether trap and transport can be used to increase the migration success of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, smolts in naturally flowing rivers.

Radionuclide generators employ longer lived "parent" radionuclides to routinely supply shorter-lived "daughter" radionuclides. The traditional Ac/Bi radiochemical generator relies on an organic cation exchange resin where Ac binds to the resin and Bi is routinely eluted.

In addition, it sought to evaluate if disclosures informed patient risk assessments and if patients were signposted to additional support services. 57% of 90 IATs had evidence of routine sensitive enquiry.

Nonetheless, there is currently a lack of information on Atlantic salmon post-smolt movement behaviour in estuaries in the UK. This study used acoustic tagging to estimate loss rates and compare the behaviour of Atlantic salmon post-smolts migrating from two distinctly different rivers draining into the Clyde Estuary, the River Endrick (n = 145) and the Gryffe (n = 102).
