Impacts of ocean acidification on physiology and ecology of marine invertebrates: a comprehensive review
Ocean acidification (OA) arises as a consequence of excessive carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) inputs into the ocean, a situation further exacerbated by...

Gut physiology of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is influenced more by short-term fasting followed by refeeding than by feeding fishmeal-free diets
Supplementing a fishmeal-free diet with yeast extract improves rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss ) growth performance and modulates the hepatic and...
