Management of the few regulated ornamental fisheries relies on inadequate information about the life history of the target species. Herein, we investigated the reproductive biology of the most heavily traded marine invertebrate in the western Atlantic; the blue-legged hermit crab Clibanarius tricolor. ...
Background In France, two main diseases threaten Pacific oyster production. Since 2008, Crassostrea gigas spat have suffered massive losses due to the ostreid herpesvirus OsHV-1, and since 2012, significant mortalities in commercial-size adults have been related to infection by the bacterium Vibrio ...
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to investigate whether alternative dietary protein sources modulate the microbial communities in the distal intestine (DI) of Atlantic salmon, and whether alterations in microbiota profiles are reflected in modifications in host intestinal function and health status. ...
An earlier electrochemical mechanism of DNA detection was adapted and specified for the detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in real samples. The reader, based on a screen printed carbon electrode, was modified with polylactide-stabilized gold nanoparticles and methylene blue was employed as the redox ...
Atlantic salmon exhibit seasonal reproduction. However, the mechanisms governing this are still unclear. Generally speaking, kisspeptin has been recognized as a regulator of reproduction. Here, we report a relationship between kisspeptin, GnRH and photoperiod in Atlantic salmon. The results demonstrated ...
Background The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) is a key component of the adaptive immune system of all vertebrates and consists of the most polymorphic genes known to date. Due to this complexity, however, MHC remains to be characterized in many species including any Neotropical cichlid fish. ...
Background As the fastest growing plant, duckweed can thrive on anthropogenic wastewater. The purple-backed duckweed, Landoltia punctata, is rich in starch and flavonoids. However, the molecular biological basis of high flavonoid and low lignin content remains largely unknown, as does the best method ...
The nuclear disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) in March 2011 caused partial meltdowns of three reactors. During the meltdowns, a type of condensed particle, a caesium-rich micro-particle (CsMP), formed inside the reactors via unknown processes. Here we report the chemical ...
The human ubiquitous protein cystinosin is responsible for transporting the disulphide amino acid cystine from the lysosomal compartment into the cytosol. In humans, Pathogenic mutations of CTNS lead to defective cystinosin function, intralysosomal cystine accumulation and the development of cystinosis. ...
A plethora of viruses can be transmitted by the food- and waterborne route. However, their recognition is challenging because of the variety of viruses, heterogeneity of symptoms, the lack of awareness of clinicians, and limited surveillance efforts. Classical food- and waterborne viral disease outbreaks ...
Summary Globally, there is an increasing focus on hydrocarbon recovery in regions that are new to environmental legislation and regulation; very often, these are offshore environments where well integrity has broad effects. Providing environmentally compliant fluids is becoming a standard, and thus ...
The present invention relates to a conveying and distributing apparatus for delivering fish slaughtered by means of a plurality of slaughtering machines to at least one distributing device, comprising longitudinal conveyors downstream of each of the slaughtering machines, which are configured to receive ...
The sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus (Lamarck, 1816) is a keystone herbivore in the Mediterranean Sea due to its ability to transform macroalgal-dominated communities into barren areas characterized by increased cover of bare substrates and encrusting coralline algae, reduced biodiversity and altered ...
A dual-bearing reel attachable to a fishing rod, comprising, a reel unit, a handle shaft rotatably supported by the reel unit, and a handle assembly being mounted onto the handle shaft. The handle assembly includes a handle arm and a handle knob rotatably attached to a tip of the first arm portion. ...
A device for attachment to a fishing line (102) and capable of shearing water to create a bubble trail (112) along a length of the fishing line (102), preferably mounted at the beginning of a leader line (104) and, when pulled through the water at trolling speeds, causing water shear. The device is ...
The present invention relates to a modular chambered fishing lure having an internal spool for providing compact storage for an extendable leader; weighted elements removably attached along various portions of the lure body for providing a desired motion, orientation, and depth in the water; and a plurality ...
Provided is a soft lure (10) in which interference in movements between adjacent wobbling portions in a front-rear direction is reduced. The soft lure (10) has a body (11) and a plurality of legs (20) each projecting out from a side of the body (11) and arranged along a moving direction of the soft ...
The invention relates to a module (14) for storing and transporting live products, in particular sea products, characterised in that it includes a box-shaped unit which is made from a light material, which has a length L and a width l defining a front surface FF and a rear surface RF, as well as a thickness ...
The present invention, relating to a water-pollutant separation device, on which a water-pollutant separation and filtration device, an ornamental fish tank water-pollutant separation and filtration system, and a high density cultivation water-pollutant separation, filtration and oxygen aeration system ...
Many products can be made of melt spun or extruded polyamides, such as for example, fibers, filaments for fishnets or fishing lines, carpet fibers, etc. These end products have certain desirable transparency, softness, and tenacity characteristics based on their applications. Previous methods of producing ...
