The Pearl River estuary, southern China, suffers from multiple sources of metal contamination as a result of the rapid industrial development in the region; but the biological impacts of contamination remain unknown. In the present study, a euryhaline oyster, Crassostrea hongkongensis, was collected from different sites of the Pearl River estuary; and various physiological (heart rate, ...
The study evaluates the reduction of As(V) uptake in rice seedlings through individual and combined supplementation of PO43‐, Se(IV) under hydroponic condition. The toxic response in seedlings receiving As(V), manifested as inhibition in physiological parameters such as WUE, Gs, A, E, qp and ETR along with the growth. Arsenic accumulation significantly decreased with Se(IV) treatment (0.5, 1 ...
Global climate change is impacting and will continue to impact on marine and estuarine fish and fisheries. Data trends show climate change effects ranging from fish growth, digestion physiology and performance in marine and freshwater ecosystems. The present study was designed to develop a concept for a cause and effect understanding with respect to climate-induced temperature and salinity ...
