The fish gustatory system provides the final sensory evaluation in the feeding process.
Unlike other vertebrates, the gustatory system in fish may be divided into two distinct …

Triggered by the adoption of the Water Framework Directive, a variety of fish-based systems
were developed throughout Europe to assess the ecological status of lakes. This paper …

Concentrations of cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, manganese, nickel, strontium and
zinc were determined in water, sediment and fish tissues (gills, liver, muscle and bones) of …

In 36 south Finnish lakes, the number of species, as well as the cyprinids: percids ratio, was
dependent, not only on total phosphorus (TP), but also on lake size. Total fish biomass and …

The field data from four humic lakes suggested that water colour may have both direct and
indirect effects on inter‐and intra‐specific interactions of perch Perca fluviatilis and roach …

Microplastic particles (MPs) contamination of aquatic environments has raised a growing
concern in recent decades because of their numerous potential toxicological effects …

No significant differences in the diet composition were detected for any of the populations of
four non‐indigenous fish species (brown bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus, pumpkinseed …

The dynamics of crustacean zooplankton in the littoral and pelagic zones of four forest lakes
having variable water qualities (colour range 130–340 mg Pt l− 1, Secchi depth 70–160 cm) …

To understand food web dynamics, knowledge about factors influencing trophic interactions
is fundamental. Using stomach content analysis, we investigated size-dependent predator …

This study evaluated the spatial variability of risks and benefits of consuming fish from humic
and clear lakes. Mercury in fish is a potential risk for human health, but risk assessment may …
