First record of the genus Pseudopilolabus Legalov, 2003 (Coleoptera: Attelabidae) in Dominican amber

Creator:: Poinar, George O., Jr., Brown, A. E., and Legalov, A. A.
Abstract:: A new weevil species (urn:lsid:zoobank.org: act:2D5E9E4A-A250-4D0A-AF69-CF4753436686), Pseudopilolabus othnius Poinar, Brown and Legalov, sp. nov. (Coleoptera: Attelabidae), is described from Dominican amber. The new species is close to the extant P. viridanus (Gyllenhal, 1839) and P. splendens (Gyllenhal, 1839) but differs by having a bronzed body, narrower and more convex elytral...

Eocene and not Cretaceous origin of spider wasps: Fossil evidence from amber

Creator:: Rodriguez, Juanita, Waichert, Cecilia, von Dohlen, Carol D., Poinar, George, Jr., and Pitts, James P.
Abstract:: Spider wasps had long been proposed to originate in the mid-Cretaceous based on the Burmese amber fossil Bryopompilus interfector Engel and Grimaldi, 2006. We performed a morphological examination of this fossil and determined it does not belong to Pompilidae or any other described hymenopteran family. Instead, we place it in...

Tapeworm Eggs in a 270 Million-Year-Old Shark Coprolite

Creator:: Dentzien-Dias, Paula C., Poinar, George, Jr., de Figueiredo, Ana Emilia Q., Pacheco, Ana Carolina L., Horn, Bruno L. D., and Schultz, Cesar L.
Abstract:: Remains of parasites in vertebrates are rare from the Mesozoic and Paleozoic. Once most parasites that live in - or pass through - the gastrointestinal tract of vertebrates, fossil feces (coprolites) or even intestinal contents (enterolites) can eventually preserve their remains. Here we announce the discovery of a spiral shark...

The VAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx): goals, platforms, and field operations

Creator:: Wood, R., Mechoso, C. R., Bretherton, C. S., Weller, R. A., Huebert, B., Straneo, F., Albrecht, B. A., Coe, H., Allen, G., Vaughan, G., Daum, P., Fairall, C., Chand, D., Klenner, L.

R., Chaigneau, A., Toniazzo, T., Minnis, P., Palikonda, R., Abel, S. J., Brown, W. O. J., Williams, S., Fochesatto, J., Brioude, J., and Bower, K. N.
Abstract:: The VAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx) was an international field program designed to make observations of poorly understood but critical components of the coupled climate system of the southeast Pacific. This region is characterized by strong coastal upwelling, the coolest SSTs in the tropical belt, and is home to...

The Genome of Tolypocladium inflatum: Evolution, Organization, and Expression of the Cyclosporin Biosynthetic Gene Cluster

Creator:: Bushley, Kathryn E., Raja, Rajani, Jaiswal, Pankaj, Cumbie, Jason S., Nonogaki, Mariko, Boyd, Alexander E., Owensby, C. Alisha, Knaus, Brian J., Elser, Justin, Miller, Daniel, Di, Yanming, McPhail, Kerry L., and Spatafora, Joseph W.
Abstract:: The ascomycete fungus Tolypocladium inflatum, a pathogen of beetle larvae, is best known as the producer of the immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin. The draft genome of T. inflatum strain NRRL 8044 (ATCC 34921), the isolate from which cyclosporin was first isolated, is presented along with comparative analyses of the biosynthesis of...

Nested scales of spatial heterogeneity in juvenile walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma in the southeastern Bering Sea

Creator:: Benoit-Bird, Kelly J., McIntosh, Neal E., and Heppell, Scott A.
Abstract:: We sought to characterize the distribution of juvenile walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma in an area of intense predator-prey interactions and to describe habitat features that lead to their observed distributions. The distribution of juvenile walleye pollock around the Pribilof Islands in the southeastern Bering Sea in 2008 and 2009 was...

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...

Density Can Be Misleading for Low-Density Species: Benefits of Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Creator:: Rogers, Tracey L., Ciaglia, Michaela B., Klinck, Holger, and Southwell, Colin
Abstract:: Climate-induced changes may be more substantial within the marine environment, where following ecological change is logistically difficult, and typically expensive. As marine animals tend to produce stereotyped, long-range signals, they are ideal for repeatable surveying. In this study we illustrate the potential for calling rates to be used as a...

Roles of brca2 (fancd1) in Oocyte Nuclear Architecture, Gametogenesis, Gonad Tumors, and Genome Stability in Zebrafish

Creator:: Rodriguez-Mari, Adriana, Wilson, Catherine, Titus, Tom A., Canestro, Cristian, BreMiller, Ruth A., Yan, Yi-Lin, Nanda, Indrajit, Johnston, Adam, Kanki, John P., Gray, Erin M., He, Xinjun, Spitsbergen, Jan, Schindler, Detlev, and Postlethwait, John H.
Abstract:: Mild mutations in BRCA2 (FANCD1) cause Fanconi anemia (FA) when homozygous, while severe mutations cause common cancers including breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers when heterozygous. Here we report a zebrafish brca2 insertional mutant that shares phenotypes with human patients and identifies a novel brca2 function in oogenesis. Experiments showed that...
