In particular the completion of related complete genome sequence from mollusc species gives the opportunity to examine the evolution of gene families, sequence divergence from different components of the innate immune system and the origins of some novel immune-related genes and their families in evolution. Here, we detailed some of the examples among these mollusc models to emphasize the diversities of the immune genes, their families and the diversified responses of innate immunity. We sought to discuss the drives or evolutionary dynamics of differences currently within the innate immune system from the present study existing in fact. In addition, we put forward the necessity of studying on comparative immune diversity with different invertebrate models.

Environmental conditions causes supply side processes to vary in space and time at several scales challenging recruitment forecasting. In this study, we assessed the relationship between supply side processes in Perna perna, a commercial rocky shore bivalve, and meteorological-oceanographic conditions at different spatial-temporal scales. This study was conducted at South Brazilian Bight, a subtropical region influenced by upwelling and meteorological fronts. Larval supply, settlement and recruitment rates were measured monthly, weekly and daily from 2012 to 2013, with local (km) and regional (10-100 km) resolutions. Meteorological-oceanographic conditions were described by physical forcing (wind speed and direction, wave and sea level height), chlorophyll-a concentration and sea surface temperature. Results show that the strength of the relationship between supply side processes and environmental conditions depends on the temporal scale. The degrees of correlation between ecological and environmental variables were low and specific larval supply mechanisms could not be identified. Local contrasts were responsible for most of the variability in supply side processes; however, regional coincidences blocked recruitment along the region. These results suggest that processes at both scales have similar power when regulating recruitment, affecting community to species levels. This study highlights the importance of scales of variability when predicting marine stocks. Biography Ana Carolina de Azevedo Mazzuco has completed her PhD from University of São Paulo. She is currently a young Researcher and Environmental Consultant at Deep Blue. She is also an extended member of IMAR/Federal University of São Paulo. Her studies focus on “Benthic-pelagic coupling in rocky shore invertebrates”. She has more than 10 years of experience in scientific field. She has published two papers in reputed journals and has presented her work at important scientific meetings.

One of main activity on rivers in Turkey has been constructions of dams. As of the beginning of 2015, there are 857 dams in operation and 600 dams under construction across Turkey. Dams on rivers would change overall temperature regimes, sediment transport and biotic homogenization. Besides, dams restrict migratory fish species and might cause loss of aquatic fauna and flora particularly endemic fish species. For this reason, dams are one of the greatest global threats for freshwater biodiversity. 51% of freshwater fish species of Turkey has been reported as critically endangered (CR) and 32% of that endangered (EN). Therefore, an environmental flow in any stream is vital for fish species. This paper will focus on effects of dam constructions on freshwater fish species in Turkey and underline importance of environmental flow in a stream for fish species. Biography Ozlem Ablak Gurbuz has completed her PhD at Gazi University, Turkey and Post-doctoral studies at University of Massachusetts, USA. She is a Research Scholar at Texas State University in San Marcos. She has published more than seven papers in reputed journals.

Aquaculture production will certainly continue Ato be one of the most viable methods to supply population’s increasing demands of high quality animal proteins. Sivas is a city in central Anatolia of Turkey. The city, which lies at an elevation of 1278 m in the valley of the Kızılırmak river, is a moderately sized trade center and industrial city, although the economy has traditionally been based on agriculture. This study was carried out to determine the latest status of aquaculture in Sivas. Intensive aquaculture in Sivas is mainly related to fresh water aquaculture, which shows the best expansion prospects. In Sivas, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) is the most common fish species cultured in both land based raceways and cages. According to current official figures, 46 rainbow trout farms are present in the Sivas and their total production capacity is about 5541 tons in 2015. Aquaculture has a effect on the environment as other agricultural activities. The target of aquaculture rises in a style that does not damage the environment. Therefore, environmentally friendly production and monitoring of environmental effects of aquaculture is required for sustainable aquaculture in Sivas. Biography Seher Dirican is an Assistant Professor in Fisheries Department at University of Cumhuriyet, Turkey. He has published more than 15 papers in international journals. His research interests include “Fisheries, aquaculture and environment, water quality, aquatic organisms, pollution and limnology”. He is an Editor and Reviewer in various international journals.
