Physicochemical characteristics of the Dombrovska pit lake (Ukraine) formed in an opencast potassium salt mine and the genome response of Chironomus salinarius Kieffer (Chironomidae, Diptera) to these conditions

Abstract: This study focuses on the Dombrovska pit lake, near the city of Kalush in Ukraine, which is a former potassium salt mine filled with brine and freshwater. The water level is still increasing and as a result the salinity is decreasing. We analyzed the benthic fauna communities and the genome instability by assessing the rearrangements in the polytene chromosomes of Chironomus salinarius and the physicochemical parameters of the near-bottom water (pH, conductivity, mineralization, major ions, NO3−, NH4+, metals … Show more

“…In terms of physicochemical variables, the identified species were tolerant. C. salinarius determined in this study in summer and autumn, prefers aquatic ecosystems which have a wide salinity spectrum and tolerate variations in salinity (Drake & Arias, 1995;Zinchenko et al, 2019;Michailova et al, 2021). L. hoffmeisteri has a tolerance to nitrogen compound and acts as a sink for inorganic nitrogen via bioturbation (Shang et al, 2014).…”
