Allometric biomass models for european beech and silver fir: Testing approaches to minimize the demand for site‐specific biomass observations
(2020)In this paper, site‐specific allometric biomass models were developed for European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) to estimate the aboveground biomass in Șinca virgin forest, Romania. Several ... -
The effects of farming practices on earthworm dynamics in olive groves of central Greece
(2012)We compared species richness, species composition, density and biomass of earthworm communities in organically and conventionally managed olive groves in central Greece. Earthworm biomass and density was significantly ... -
Factors affecting biodiversity in agrosylvopastoral ecosystems with in the Mediterranean Basin: A systematic review
(2018)The biodiversity of Mediterranean agrosylvopastoral ecosystems has been extensively studied, because the Mediterranean Basin is a crossroad of biogeographical influences between cold temperate biota and subtropical species. ... -
First Eastern Mediterranean Record of Xenoligophoroides cobitis, the Only Dactylogyrid Monogenean Infecting Mediterranean Gobies: Just Arrived or Missed the Boat?
(2022)Gobies and their ectoparasitic monogenean flatworms are promising models for species diversification because of their species richness. Recent decades have seen the discovery of several new species of Gyrodactylus (Monogenea: ... -
Imprinting statistically sound conclusions for gut microbiota in comparative animal studies: A case study with diet and teleost fishes
(2020)Despite the technical progress in high-throughput sequencing technologies, defining the sample size which is capable of yielding representative inferences in metabarcoding analysis still remains debatable. The present study ... -
Marine microbial community structure assessed from combined metagenomic analysis and ribosomal amplicon deep-sequencing
(2016)The microbial taxonomic composition of the three domains of life in two coastal plankton samples was assessed by random total community metagenomic sequencing and PCR-based rDNA amplicon deep-sequencing in order to compare ... -
Predicting woody plant diversity as key component of ecosystems: A case study in central Greece
(2019)The Mediterranean basin is a global hotspot of biodiversity. Woody plants are key components of ecosystems. This article explores the environmental impacts on woody plant species richness and diversity in maquis and abandoned ... -
Quantifying beetle and bird diversity in a Mediterranean mountain agro-ecosystem
(2012)In cultivated landscapes, the peculiar mosaic structure creates several types of habitat. Defining which habitats favor rich biodiversity is of increasing importance. Beetle and bird diversity was monitored in seven different ... -
Short- And long-term effects of amoxicillin/ clavulanic acid or doxycycline on the gastrointestinal microbiome of growing cats
(2021)Antibiotic treatment in early life influences gastrointestinal (GI) microbial composition and function. In humans, the resultant intestinal dysbiosis is associated with an increased risk for certain diseases later in life. ... -
Terrestrial isopods as bioindicators for environmental monitoring in olive groves and natural ecosystems
(2019)Terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea) are an important component of biodiversity as they constitute useful bioindicators for monitoring environmental quality in a variety of natural and agricultural ecosystems. ...
