Using Benthic Diatoms as a Bioindicator to Assess Rural-urban River Conditions in Tropical Area: A Case Study in the Sai Gon River, Vietnam
The changes in diatom assemblages along an urban-to-rural gradient were characterized to assess the ecological status of the Sai Gon River, Vietnam. Diatoms and physico-chemical variables were measured at 10 stations during dry and rainy season. One-way ANOVA showed that diatom metrics and physicochemical variables were significantly different (p < 0.05) between the upper course sites and both ...

متن کاملAnthropogenic pollutants: a threat to ecosystem sustainability?
Pollutants, including synthetic organic materials and heavy metals, are known to adversely affect physiological systems in all animal species studied to date. While many individual chemicals can perturb normal functions, the combined actions of multiple pollutants are of particular concern because they can exert effects even when each individual chemical is present at concentrations too low to ...
متن کاملArabidopsis thaliana as Bioindicator of Fungal VOCs in Indoor Air
In this paper, we demonstrate the ability of Arabidopsis thaliana to detect different mixtures of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by the common indoor fungus, Aspergillus versicolor, and demonstrate the potential usage of the plant as a bioindicator to monitor fungal VOCs in indoor air. We evaluated the volatile production of Aspergillus versicolor strains SRRC 108 (NRRL 3449) and SRR...
متن کاملEvaluating the Use of Ergosterol as a Bioindicator for Assessing Fungal Response to Water Quality
This study investigated the in situ production of fungal biomass on presterilized woody substrates submerged in natural estuarine and freshwater bodies enriched with nitrogen and phosphoruscontaining chemical compounds. Results suggest that the membrane-bound sterol ergosterol may hold significant promise as an quantitative indicator of fungal response to water quality. We suggest that realisti...
