Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring and quantifying fungal diversity in freshwater lake ecosystems using rDNA cloning/sequencing and SSU tag pyrosequencing
Sébastien Monchy,Giovanna Sanciu,Marlène Jobard,Serena Rasconi,Mélanie Gerphagnon,Magali Chabé,Amandine Cian,Dionigia Meloni,Nathalie Niquil,Urania Christaki,Eric Viscogliosi,Télesphore Sime-Ngando +11 more
TL;DR: This study represents the first unveiling of microbial eukaryote and fungus diversity assessed with two complementary molecular methods, and is considered a major milestone towards understanding the dynamics and ecology of fungi in freshwater lake ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trophic networks: How do theories link ecosystem structure and functioning to stability properties? A review
Blanche Saint-Béat,Dan Baird,Harald Asmus,Ragnhild Asmus,Cédric Bacher,Stephen R. Pacella,Galen A. Johnson,Galen A. Johnson,Valérie David,Valérie David,Alain F. Vézina,Nathalie Niquil,Nathalie Niquil +12 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ENA provides powerful tools for describing local stability, combining quantitative and qualitative concepts, however, it remains incomplete for describing real conservation cases that combine local and global stability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phytoplankton chytridiomycosis: community structure and infectivity of fungal parasites in aquatic ecosystems
TL;DR: It is concluded that the parasitism by zoosporic fungi represents an important ecological driving force in the food web dynamics of aquatic ecosystems, and general empirical models on chytrid seasonality and trophodynamics in lakes are inferred.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using ecological models to assess ecosystem status in support of the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive
Chiara Piroddi,Heliana Teixeira,Christopher P. Lynam,Caleb Smith,María del Carmen Alvarez,Krysia Mazik,Eider Andonegi,Tanya Churilova,Letizia Tedesco,Marina Chifflet,Guillem Chust,Ibon Galparsoro,Ana Carla Garcia,Maria Kämäri,O. Kryvenko,Géraldine Lassalle,Suzanna Neville,Nathalie Niquil,Nadia Papadopoulou,Axel G. Rossberg,Vjacheslav Suslin,María C. Uyarra +21 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the most commonly used capabilities of the modelling community to provide information about indicators outlined in the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), particularly on biodiversity, food webs, non-indigenous species and seafloor integrity descriptors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lower trophic levels and detrital biomass control the Bay of Biscay continental shelf food web: Implications for ecosystem management
Géraldine Lassalle,Jérémy Lobry,F. Le Loc'h,Paco Bustamante,Grégoire Certain,Daniel Delmas,Christine Dupuy,Christian Hily,Claire Labry,O. Le Pape,Elise Marquis,Elise Marquis,Pierre Petitgas,Claire Pusineri,Vincent Ridoux,Jérôme Spitz,Nathalie Niquil +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a well-described model comprising 30 living and two non-living compartments was successfully constructed with data of local origin, for the Bay of Biscay continental shelf.
