A treatment study of canine symmetrical onychomadesis (symmetrical lupoid onychodystrophy) comparing fish oil and cyclosporine supplementation in addition to a diet rich ...

Background Treatment of symmetrical onychomadesis (symmetrical lupoid onychodystrophy) is a challenging task for dermatologists. The acute phase is characterized by sloughing of claw plates and loose claws have to be removed and secondary infections treated. The goal of long-term treatment is to allow ...

Listening In on the Past: What Can Otolith δ18O Values Really Tell Us about the Environmental History of Fishes?

Oxygen isotope ratios from fish otoliths are used to discriminate marine stocks and reconstruct past climate, assuming that variations in otolith δ18O values closely reflect differences in temperature history of fish when accounting for salinity induced variability in water δ18O. To investigate this, ...

Transcriptional Responses of Olive Flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) to Low Temperature

The olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) is an economically important flatfish in marine aquaculture with a broad thermal tolerance ranging from 14 to 23°C. Cold-tolerant flounder that can survive during the winter season at a temperature of less than 14°C might facilitate the understanding of the ...

Evolutionary Strategies of Viruses, Bacteria and Archaea in Hydrothermal Vent Ecosystems Revealed through Metagenomics

The deep-sea hydrothermal vent habitat hosts a diverse community of archaea and bacteria that withstand extreme fluctuations in environmental conditions. Abundant viruses in these systems, a high proportion of which are lysogenic, must also withstand these environmental extremes. Here, we explore the ...

Additive genetic variation for tolerance to estrogen pollution in natural populations of Alpine whitefish (Coregonus sp., Salmonidae)

The evolutionary potential of natural populations to adapt to anthropogenic threats critically depends on whether there exists additive genetic variation for tolerance to the threat. A major problem for water-dwelling organisms is chemical pollution, and among the most common pollutants is 17α-ethinylestradiol ...

Impacts of crowding, trawl duration and air exposure on the physiology of stingarees (family: Urolophidae)

Research on physiological stress and post-capture mortality of threatened species caught as bycatch is critical for the management of fisheries. The present study used laboratory simulations to examine the physiological stress response of sparsely spotted stingarees (Urolophus paucimaculatus) subjected ...

Stable Isotopes in Fish Eye Lenses as Potential Recorders of Trophic and Geographic History

We evaluated eye lenses as potential recorders of stable isotope histories in fish because they consist of metabolically inert optical proteins that are deposited in successive, concentric circles (laminae) much like otolith circuli and tree rings. We conducted four different tests on lenses from red ...

Effect of temperature and glia in brain size enlargement and origin of allometric body-brain size scaling in vertebrates

Background Brain signaling requires energy. The cost of maintaining and supporting energetically demanding neurons is the key constraint on brain size. The dramatic increase in brain size among mammals and birds cannot be understood without solving this conundrum: larger brains, with more neurons, ...

Enhanced prey capture skills in Astyanax cavefish larvae are independent from eye loss

Background Enhanced food-finding efficiency is an obvious adaptive response to cave environments. Here, we have compared the food-finding abilities of Astyanax surface fish and blind cavefish young larvae in their first month of life, in the dark. Results Our results show that enhanced prey capture ...

Role and prevalence of antibiosis and the related resistance genes in the environment

Rapid Fishery Assessment by Market Survey (RFAMS) – An Improved Rapid-Assessment Approach to Characterising Fish Landings in Developing Countries

The complex multi-gear, multi-species tropical fisheries in developing countries are poorly understood and characterising the landings from these fisheries is often impossible using conventional approaches. A rapid assessment method for characterising landings at fish markets, using an index of abundance ...

In Situ Mortality Experiments with Juvenile Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) in Relation to Impulsive Sound Levels Caused by Pile Driving of Windmill Foundations

Impact assessments of offshore wind farm installations and operations on the marine fauna are performed in many countries. Yet, only limited quantitative data on the physiological impact of impulsive sounds on (juvenile) fishes during pile driving of offshore wind farm foundations are available. Our ...

Complete Genome Sequence of Vibrio vulnificus 93U204, a Bacterium Isolated from Diseased Tilapia in Taiwan

Vibrio vulnificus 93U204 is a bacterium isolated from a moribund tilapia collected in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of this bacterium to facilitate the investigation of its pathogenicity and for comparative analyses with human-pathogenic strains within the same spec...

Draft Genome Sequence of the Oyster Larval Probiotic Bacterium Vibrio sp. Strain OY15

We report the draft genome sequence of Vibrio sp. strain OY15, a Gram-negative marine bacterium isolated from an oyster (Crassostrea virginica) digestive tract and shown to possess probiotic activity. The availability of this genome sequence will facilitate the study of the mechanisms of probiotic activity ...

The river and the sea: fieldwork in human ecology and ethnobiology

This article is a commentary on the experiences that motivated my decision to become a human ecologist and ethnobiologist. These experiences include the pleasure of studying and of having the sense of being within nature, as well as the curiosity towards understanding the world and minds of local people. ...

Neuropeptides encoded by the genomes of the Akoya pearl oyster Pinctata fucata and Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas: a bioinformatic and peptidomic survey

Background Oysters impart significant socio-ecological benefits from primary production of food supply, to estuarine ecosystems via reduction of water column nutrients, plankton and seston biomass. Little though is known at the molecular level of what genes are responsible for how oysters reproduce, ...

Chip, in particular for coming into contact with and/Or having an effect on animal food or aquarium water

The invention relates to a chip (1), in particular for coming into contact with and/or having an effect on animal food or aquarium water. The chip (1) comprises a fixing device (10) for fixing the chip (1) on a target object, and a receiving space (20), in which an application agent (30) is housed. ...

Method for separating algae, in particular microalgae, from an aqueous phase, and a device for carrying out this method

The present invention relates to a method for separating algae, in particular microalgae, from an aqueous phase, having the method steps: a) addition of at least one clay mineral, in particular an alternating-layer clay mineral, to the aqueous, algae-containing phase, and mixing the same, b) sedimentation ...

Method and system for protection of subsea assets

The present invention relates to a method and a system for protection of subsea assets, which system comprises an electronic map indicating subsea assets, the system defines a geographical zone, which zone covers an area around the subsea asset, which system performs tracking of vessels entering a geographical ...

Developing a new generation of passive acoustics sensors for ocean observing systems

The objective of the NeXOS project is to develop cost-effective, innovative, and compact multifunctional sensor systems in ocean optics, ocean passive acoustics and for an Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries (EAF), which can be deployed from mobile and fixed platforms, with data services contributing to ...
