GAPE SIZE INFLUENCES SEASONAL PATTERNS OF PISCIVORE DIETS IN THREE NEOTROPICAL RIVERS

We examined diets of four piscivores, two in the order Perciformes (Cichla temensis and C.orinocensis) and two in the order Characiformes (Boulengerella cuvieri and B.lucius), from the Cinaruco, La Guardia, and Ventuari Face Serum rivers in Venezuela throughout the wet-dry seasonal cycle.The four piscivores consumed a phylogenetically and morpholog

ABSTRACT In the field of synthetic biology, the engineering of synthetic promoters that outperform their natural counterparts is of paramount importance, which can optimize the expression of exogenous genes, enhance the efficiency of metabolic pathways, and possess substantial commercial value.Research indicates that some synthetic promoters have h
