Movement of fishes in the aquatic realm is fundamental to their ecology and survival.
Movement can be driven by a variety of biological, physiological and environmental factors …

Multifactorial studies assessing the cumulative effects of natural and anthropogenic
stressors on individual stress response are crucial to understand how organisms and …

Morphometric indices of body condition are assumed to reflect an animal's health and
ultimately its fitness, but their physiological significance remains a matter of debate. These …

Individual performance defines population dynamics. Condition index–a ratio of weight and
some function of length–has been louded as an indicator of individual performance and …

Declines in individuals' growth in exploited fish species are generally attributed to
evolutionary consequences of size‐selective fishing or to plastic responses due to …

Transient exposures to high or low concentrations of a single or mixture of pesticides are
common in aquatic organisms. Routine toxicity tests disregard transient exposures and the …

For more than a century, bacterial infections caused by Vibrio spp. have affected various
species of mussels around the world, with limited insights into the responses implemented …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) constitute a new category of biomarkers. Studies on miRNAs in non-
mammalian species have drastically increased in the last few years. Here, we explored the …

Environmental changes can alter the nursery function of coastal areas through their impact
on juveniles' growth and survival rates, an effect mediated by individuals' chronic stress …

In estuarine and coastal systems, anthropogenic activities and directional changes in global
air temperatures have led to increased water temperatures, as well as increased frequency …
