Article Synopsis
- Submerged plants and biochar have shown promise for improving aquaculture pond sediment health, but more research is needed on how they work together to reduce harmful organic contaminants and manage nutrient levels.* -
- The study tested how effective a combination of a submerged plant (Vallisneria natans) and wheat straw biochar was at removing hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) in simulated freshwater aquaculture ponds, focusing on the benthic organism Corbicula fluminea.* -
- Results demonstrated that a 1.5% biochar mix with Vallisneria natans optimized HOC control, promoting plant growth, while also revealing that most contaminants in the system were degraded through microbial action, highlighting the importance of bacterial ph
In the current study, we investigated the functional response of Harmonia axyridis adults and larvae foraging on Acyrthosiphon pisum nymphs at temperatures between 15 and 35 °C. Logistic regression and Roger's random predator models were employed to determine the type and parameters of the functional response. Harmonia axyridis larvae and adults exhibited Type II functional responses to A.
