Evaluating Temporal Consistency in Marine Biodiversity Hotspots

Creator:: Piacenza, Susan E., Thurman, Lindsey L., Barner, Allison K., Benkwitt, Cassandra E., Boersma, Kate S., Cerny-Chipman, Elizabeth B., Ingeman, Kurt E., Kindinger, Tye L., Lindsley, Amy J., Nelson, Jake, Reimer, Jessica N., Rowe, Jennifer C., Shen, Chenchen, Thompson, Kevin A., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: With the ongoing crisis of biodiversity loss and limited resources for conservation, the concept of biodiversity hotspots has been useful in determining conservation priority areas. However, there has been limited research into how temporal variability in biodiversity may influence conservation area prioritization. To address this information gap, we present an...

Regional Contingencies in the Relationship between Aboveground Biomass and Litter in the World’s Grasslands

Creator:: O’Halloran, Lydia R., Chu, Chengjin, Bakker, Jonathan D., Davies, Kendi F., Du, Guozhen, Firn, Jennifer, Hagenah, Nicole, Hofmockel, Kirsten S., Knops, Johannes M. H., Li, Wei, Melbourne, Brett A., Borer, Elizabeth T., Morgan, John W., Orrock, John L., Prober, Suzanne M., Stevens, Carly J., Seabloom, Eric W., MacDougall, Andrew S., Cleland, Elsa E., McCulley, Rebecca L., Hobbie, Sarah, Harpole, W. Stan, and DeCrappeo, Nicole M.
Abstract:: Based on regional-scale studies, aboveground production and litter decomposition are thought to positively covary, because they are driven by shared biotic and climatic factors. Until now we have been unable to test whether production and decomposition are generally coupled across climatically dissimilar regions, because we lacked replicated data collected within...

Positive Impact of Nutritional Interventions on Serum Symmetric Dimethylarginine and Creatinine Concentrations in Client-Owned Geriatric Cats

Creator:: Hall, Jean A., MacLeay, Jennifer, Yerramilli, Maha, Obare, Edward, Yerramilli, Murthy, Schiefelbein, Heidi, Paetau-Robinson, Inke, and Jewell, Dennis E.
Abstract:: A prospective study was conducted in client-owned geriatric cats to evaluate the short- term effects of a test food on serum symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) and creatinine (Cr) concentrations. Test food contained functional lipids (fish oil), antioxidants (vitamins C and E), L-carnitine, botanicals (vegetables), highly bioavailable protein, and amino acid supplements....

Infection of Brachypodium distachyon by Formae Speciales of Puccinia graminis: Early Infection Events and Host-Pathogen Incompatibility

Creator:: Figueroa, Melania, Alderman, Stephen, Garvin, David F., and Pfender, William F.
Abstract:: Puccinia graminis causes stem rust, a serious disease of cereals and forage grasses. Important formae speciales of P. graminis and their typical hosts are P. graminis f. sp. tritici (Pg-tr) in wheat and barley, P. graminis f. sp. lolii (Pg-lo) in perennial ryegrass and tall fescue, and P. graminis f....

Delivery of Aerosolized Liposomal Amikacin as a Novel Approach for the Treatment of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria in an Experimental Model of Pulmonary Infection

Creator:: Rose, Sasha J., Neville, Mary E., Gupta, Renu, and Bermudez, Luiz E.
Abstract:: Pulmonary infections caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are an increasing problem in individuals with chronic lung conditions and current therapies are lacking. We investigated the activity of liposomal amikacin for inhalation (LAI) against NTM in vitro as well as in a murine model of respiratory infection. Macrophage monolayers were infected...

Mycobacterium avium Possesses Extracellular DNA that Contributes to Biofilm Formation, Structural Integrity, and Tolerance to Antibiotics

Creator:: Rose, Sasha J., Babrak, Lmar M., and Bermudez, Luiz E.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis is an opportunistic pathogen that is associated with biofilm-related infections of the respiratory tract and is difficult to treat. In recent years, extracellular DNA (eDNA) has been found to be a major component of bacterial biofilms, including many pathogens involved in biofilm-associated infections. To date, eDNA...

A Critical Time Window for Organismal Interactions in a Pelagic Ecosystem

Creator:: Benoit-Bird, Kelly J. and McManus, Margaret A.
Abstract:: To measure organismal coherence in a pelagic ecosystem, we used moored sensors to describe the vertical dynamics of each step in the food chain in shelf waters off the west shore of Oahu, Hawaii. Horizontally extensive, intense aggregations of phytoplankton, zooplankton, and micronekton exhibited strong diel patterns in abundance and...

Prey Patch Patterns Predict Habitat Use by Top Marine Predators with Diverse Foraging Strategies

Creator:: Benoit-Bird, Kelly J., Battaile, Brian C., Heppell, Scott A., Hoover, Brian, Irons, David, Jones, Nathan, Kuletz, Kathy J., Nordstrom, Chad A., Paredes, Rosana, Suryan, Robert M., Waluk, Chad M., and Trites, Andrew W.
Abstract:: Spatial coherence between predators and prey has rarely been observed in pelagic marine ecosystems. We used measures of the environment, prey abundance, prey quality, and prey distribution to explain the observed distributions of three co-occurring predator species breeding on islands in the southeastern Bering Sea: black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla), thick-billed...

Selenium Supplementation Restores Innate and Humoral Immune Responses in Footrot-Affected Sheep

Creator:: Hall, Jean A., Vorachek, William R., Stewart, Whitney C., Gorman, M. Elena, Mosher, Wayne D., Pirelli, Gene J., and Bobe, Gerd
Abstract:: Dietary selenium (Se) alters whole-blood Se concentrations in sheep, dependent upon Se source and dosage administered, but little is known about effects on immune function. We used footrot (FR) as a disease model to test the effects of supranutritional Se supplementation on immune function. To determine the effect of Se-source...
