Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) can be experimentally infected with both marine and freshwater fish trypanosomes. (2022)
Journal Article
Chen, K., Zhang, P., Yang, T., Wen, Y., Hide, G., Lun, Z., & Lai, D. (2022). Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) can be experimentally infected with both marine and freshwater fish trypanosomes. Experimental Parasitology, 239, 108288. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.exppara.2022.108288

Trypanosomes are haemoflagellates found in vertebrate species and many of them can cause death in infected hosts including fish and humans. With the development of high-density farming in marine and freshwater fish aquaculture systems, severe disease...

How factors of collaboration affect delivery of construction projects with a high degree of reliance on building services; an action research and cross-case study analysis of Edinburgh primary schools (2022)
Thesis
Carrick, D. How factors of collaboration affect delivery of construction projects with a high degree of reliance on building services; an action research and cross-case study analysis of Edinburgh primary schools. (Thesis). University of Salford

The construction industry has often been criticised for lack of collaboration and the effect this has on delivering value to Clients. This research was undertaken from the viewpoint of a practicing Quantity Surveyor (Professional Doctorate) to inves...

Journal Article
Kumar, U., S. Singh, R., Mandal, J., K. Nayak, A., & K. Jha, A. (2022). Removal of As(III) and Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions by Bixa orellana leaf biosorbent and As(III) removal using bacterial isolates from heavy metal contaminated site. #Journal not on list, 99(5), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jics.2021.100334

Arsenic and chromium have affected wider area in the world including Gangetic plains of India due to its toxicity and carcinogenic characteristics. Entry of As(III) into food chain has also escalated problem. A novel approach has been adopted to deve...

Two hundred and five newly assembled mitogenomes provide mixed evidence for rivers as drivers of speciation for Amazonian primates (2022)
Journal Article
Janiak, M. C., Silva, F. E., Beck, R. M. D., de Vries, D., Kuderna, L. F. K., Torosin, N. S., …Boubli, J. P. (2022). Two hundred and five newly assembled mitogenomes provide mixed evidence for rivers as drivers of speciation for Amazonian primates. Molecular Ecology, 31(14), 3888-3902. https://doi.org/10.1111/mec.16554

Mitochondrial DNA remains a cornerstone for molecular ecology, especially for study species from which high-quality tissue samples cannot be easily obtained. Methods using mitochondrial markers are usually reliant on reference databases, but these ar...

Switches, stability and reversals in the evolutionary history of sexual systems in fish (2022)
Journal Article
Pla, S., Benvenuto, C., Capellini, I., & Piferrer, F. (2022). Switches, stability and reversals in the evolutionary history of sexual systems in fish. Nature communications, 13, 3029. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-30419-z

Sexual systems are highly diverse and have profound consequences for population dynamics and resilience. Yet, little is known about how they evolved. Using phylogenetic Bayesian modelling and a sample of 4614 species, we show that gonochorism is the...

How environmental conditions affect sleep? An investigation in domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) (2022)
Journal Article
Schork, I., Manzo, I., Beiral De Oliveira, M., Costa, F., Palme, R., Young, R., & de Azevedo, C. (2022). How environmental conditions affect sleep? An investigation in domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris). Behavioural Processes, 199, 104662. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.beproc.2022.104662

Studies with humans and some other animal species have shown that sleep is compromised when the presence of external factors such as light, sound, and temperature surpass normal levels. This study investigated the effects of these environmental condi... Read More about How environmental conditions affect sleep? An investigation in domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris).

A BIM Maturity-KPI assessment framework for a UK public sector local authority client (2022)
Thesis
AbouMoemen, A. (2022). A BIM Maturity-KPI assessment framework for a UK public sector local authority client. (Thesis). University of Salford

The UK construction industry outlined construction problems related to delivering values to clients and construction performance. UK industry reports aimed to address various problems and provide milestones on how to tackle such problems, through set...
