This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics and removal efficiency of 41 detected PhACs (out of 134 screened) in the Kis-Balaton Water Protection System (KBWPS), a large reconstructed wetland in Central Europe, Hungary. More than half of the detected compounds were completely eliminated, and 11 others showed mitigation efficiencies exceeding 80 %. However, antiepileptics and hormone derivatives frequently persisted or exhibited increased concentrations at the outflow, particularly during colder conditions. Uncertainty analysis revealed that extreme negative removal values correspond to delayed release or sediment desorption rather than analytical artefacts. Risk assessment revealed that high detection frequency did not necessarily correspond to elevated ecological risk; instead, E1, β-E2 and diclofenac were the primary contributors to cumulative hazard. Overall, the KBWPS demonstrates that large-scale wetlands can provide substantial pharmaceutical attenuation, an emerging yet underrecognized ecosystem service that complements nutrient retention and habitat provision. The dual role of wetlands as both sinks and potential secondary sources of micropollutants, emphasizes the importance of seasonally adaptive, compound-specific management strategies within integrated water protection frameworks.}, keywords = {pharmaceuticals; constructed wetlands; Ecological risk assessment; Removal efficiency; Endocrine-disrupting compounds}, year = {2026}, eissn = {2214-7144}, pages = {109414-109427}, orcid-numbers = {Zrínyi, Zita/0000-0001-9446-4874; Knisz, Judit/0000-0001-7989-1931; Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} } @article{MTMT:35656581, title = {Wetland fish in peril: A synergy between habitat loss and biological invasions drives the extinction of neglected native fauna}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35656581}, author = {Šmejkal, Marek and Kalous, Lukáš and Auwerx, Johan and Gorule, Pankaj A. and Jarić, Ivan and Dočkal, Ondřej and Fedorčák, Jakub and Muška, Milan and Thomas, Kiran and Takács, Péter and Ferincz, Árpád and Choleva, Lukáš and Lamatsch, Dunja K. and Wanzenböck, Josef and Van Wichelen, Jeroen}, doi = {10.1016/j.biocon.2024.110948}, journal-iso = {BIOL CONSERV}, journal = {BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION}, volume = {302}, unique-id = {35656581}, issn = {0006-3207}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1873-2917}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} } @article{MTMT:36014881, title = {Non-native species affect the long-term dynamics of native stream fish assemblages.}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36014881}, author = {Czeglédi, István and Takács, Péter and Feng, Kai and Erős, Tibor}, doi = {10.1002/oik.11222}, journal-iso = {OIKOS}, journal = {OIKOS}, volume = {2025}, unique-id = {36014881}, issn = {0030-1299}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1600-0706}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} } @article{MTMT:36174466, title = {Effect of the tapeworm Ligula pavlovskii on the life-history of the alien monkey goby (Neogobius fluviatilis)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36174466}, author = {Vitál, Zoltán and Czeglédi, István and Eszter, Megyeri and Preiszner, Bálint and Takács, Péter and Erős, Tibor and Sallai, Márton and Boross, Nóra}, doi = {10.3897/neobiota.99.154887}, journal-iso = {NEOBIOTA}, journal = {NEOBIOTA}, volume = {99}, unique-id = {36174466}, issn = {1619-0033}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1314-2488}, pages = {131-147}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} } @article{MTMT:36179089, title = {Integrating habitat based eDNA metabarcoding and conventional surveys to characterize the lake-wide structure of fish assemblages}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36179089}, author = {Erős, Tibor and Czeglédi, István and Szolnoki, Anna and Mozsár, Attila and Pont, Didier and Preiszner, Bálint and Takács, Péter and Valentini, Alice and Specziár, András}, doi = {10.1016/j.ecolind.2025.113651}, journal-iso = {ECOL INDIC}, journal = {ECOLOGICAL INDICATORS}, volume = {176}, unique-id = {36179089}, issn = {1470-160X}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1872-7034}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} } @article{MTMT:36229273, title = {Alien fishes in Hungary: the rise of aquarium species}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36229273}, author = {Takács, Péter and Bánó, Bálint and Czeglédi, István and Pallos, Réka and Erős, Tibor and Weiperth, András}, doi = {10.1007/s10530-025-03624-2}, journal-iso = {BIOL INVASIONS}, journal = {BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS}, volume = {27}, unique-id = {36229273}, issn = {1387-3547}, abstract = {In this study, we present an updated checklist of alien fish species occurring in Hungarian natural waters. In addition, by analyzing the taxonomic, original range, and spatio-temporal occurrence data of the species in question, we also present current invasion trends and distribution patterns. For the database compilation, we used literature reports, validated occurrence data published by non-research contributors (e.g., anglers), and our own unpublished faunistic data. The occurrence of species shows an exponentially increasing trend, with 89 out of the 130 registered species and hybrids appeared in the last 24 years. Most of the new species are thermophilic aquarium species, belonging to the orders Cichliformes (39%) and Siluriformes (29%). Recently, five species from the Anabantiformes order have emerged, posing a significant threat to the native fish fauna of Hungary. Spatial data analysis indicates that the most important introduction hotspots are currently found in some thermal habitats (mostly spa outflows), especially in the capital of Hungary (Budapest), and Lake Hévíz. Due to ongoing global warming, heat-impacted stream and river stretches may serve as starting points for new invasions in the near future. This assumption is supported by the recent distribution of toothcarps (Cyprinodontiformes), as their acclimatized stocks released from warmwater habitats are likely to overwinter in temperate water bodies as well.}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1573-1464}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597; Weiperth, András/0000-0001-7824-6885} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:36378399, title = {Annoted checklist of non-native fish in Hungary: the rise of aquarium species}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36378399}, author = {Takács, Péter and Bánó, Bálint and Czeglédi, István and Pallos, Réka and Erős, Tibor and Weiperth, András}, booktitle = {14th Symposium for European Freshwater Sciences}, unique-id = {36378399}, year = {2025}, pages = {32}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597; Weiperth, András/0000-0001-7824-6885} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:36378556, title = {Behavioural responses of the European mudminnow to competition and predation in a habitat invaded by Amur sleeper}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36378556}, author = {Preiszner, Bálint and Bánó, Bálint and Czeglédi, István and Erős, Tibor and Tomasz, Kakareko and Jaroslaw, Kobak and Takács, Péter and Mateusz, Augustyniak}, booktitle = {14th Symposium for European Freshwater Sciences}, unique-id = {36378556}, year = {2025}, pages = {52}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:36378561, title = {Eye size variation of European perch (Perca fluviatilis) and sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus) along the turbidity gradient of Lake Balaton (Hungary)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36378561}, author = {Pallos, Réka and Bánó, Bálint and Takács, Péter}, booktitle = {14th Symposium for European Freshwater Sciences}, unique-id = {36378561}, year = {2025}, pages = {147}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:36378640, title = {Habitat specific whole lake survey of fish assemblages using eDNA metabarcoding and traditional methods}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36378640}, author = {Szolnoki, Anna and Czeglédi, István and Mozsár, Attila and Didier, Pont and Preiszner, Bálint and Takács, Péter and Alice, Valentini and Specziár, András and Erős, Tibor}, booktitle = {14th Symposium for European Freshwater Sciences}, unique-id = {36378640}, year = {2025}, pages = {167}, orcid-numbers = {Takács, Péter/0000-0001-5247-7597} }
