Cold, but not for long enough: first insights into the tolerance to subzero temperatures of the invasive amphipod Dikerogammarus villosus

S. Mucciolo, K. Podwysocki, A. Desiderato

This study assesses the tolerance of the invasive amphipod Dikerogammarus villosus to subzero temperatures, finding that only prolonged exposure to -8°C is fatal.

From microbial communities to regional biogeography: Unraveling patterns, determinants and the influence of bottom trawling in benthic microbiota

G. Bonthond, J. Beermann, L. Gutow, A. Neumann, F. R. Barboza, A. Desiderato, V. Fofonova, S. Helber, S. Khodami, C. Kraan, H. Neumann, S. Rohde, P. J. Schupp

This study examines how benthic microbial communities in the North Sea vary with environmental and anthropogenic factors, finding that bottom trawling reduces diversity and shifts metabolic functions.

Molecular evidence for sweeping discontinuity between peracarid (Crustacea) fauna of Macaronesian islands and nearby continental coasts: over fifty candidate endemic species

P. E. Vieira, A. Desiderato, C. L. Azevedo, P. Esquete, F. O. Costa, H. Queiroga

The paper uses mitochondrial DNA sequences to show high genetic differentiation and endemicity in peracarid species from Webbnesia compared to adjacent coasts, suggesting a biogeographic discontinuity.

Horizontal transfer and gene loss shaped the evolution of alpha-amylases in bilaterians

A. Desiderato, M. Barbeitos, C. Gilbert, J.-L. Da Lage

The paper surveys GH13_1 alpha-amylase sequences across bilaterian and non-bilaterian species, finding their presence in some bilaterians and suggesting horizontal transfer or retention of an ancestral gene.
