These differences could significantly impact freshwater ecosystems, influencing food web dynamics and invasive species management. Understanding these feeding behaviors helps us assess D. villosus ecological role and develop better strategies to mitigate its effects. 3/4

🔬 Key Findings: 🦐 The invasive amphipod Dikerogammarus villosus isn’t a one-size-fits-all predator—our study reveals two distinct feeding strategies within this species. 🌱 Some individuals primarily act as omnivores, while others display strong predatory tendencies. 2/4

We're excited to share our latest research published in Freshwater Biology! 🌊🐟 Predation or Omnivory—Two Different Feeding Patterns Displayed by Two Intraspecific Groups of the Invasive Ponto-Caspian Amphipod Dikerogammarus villosus: https://t.co/hu0Q7VERLu 1/4

#Bioinformatics is a powerful tool for #biologists working with #GenomicsData🧬 Our free online courses on bioinformatics workflows are available on demand until February 2026. From 10-30 March 2025, join our educators for a limited facilitation period in the comments 🔽

We attended a hands-on workshop about the BOLDconnectR package. The BOLD team showed us how to make things easier to retrieve-->annotate-->analyze data directly from BOLDv5 Visit the GitHub link for installation, key functions and tutorials: https://t.co/zKCNnUegW3
