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...

Patterns of loggerhead turtle ontogenetic shifts revealed through isotopic analysis of annual skeletal growth increments

Creator:: Ramirez, Matthew D., Avens, Larisa, Seminoff, Jeffrey A., Goshe, Lisa R., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: Ontogenetic changes in resource use often delimit transitions between life stages. Ecological and individual factors can cause variation in the timing and consistency of these transitions, ultimately affecting community and population dynamics through changes in growth and survival. Therefore, it is important to document and understand behavioral and life history...

Elemental Markers in Elasmobranchs: Effects of Environmental History and Growth on Vertebral Chemistry

Creator:: Smith, Wade D., Miller, Jessica A., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: Differences in the chemical composition of calcified skeletal structures (e.g. shells, otoliths) have proven useful for reconstructing the environmental history of many marine species. However, the extent to which ambient environmental conditions can be inferred from the elemental signatures within the vertebrae of elasmobranchs (sharks, skates, rays) has not been...

How much sea turtle bycatch is too much? A stationary age distribution model for simulating population abundance and potential biological removal in the Mediterranean

Creator:: Casale, Paolo and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: Mediterranean populations of loggerhead Caretta caretta and green sea turtles Chelonia mydas are subject to several anthropogenic threats, with documented mortality from incidental capture in fishing gear. However, how such mortalities actually affect the populations is uncertain without an estimate of population size. We derived a theoretical demographic structure for...

Genome-Wide Profiling and Analysis of Arabidopsis siRNAs

Creator:: Kasschau, Kristin D., Fahlgren, Noah, Chapman, Elisabeth J., Sullivan, Christopher M., Cumbie, Jason S., Givan, Scott A., and Carrington, James C.
Abstract:: Eukaryotes contain a diversified set of small RNA-guided pathways that control genes, repeated sequences, and viruses at the transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels. Genome-wide profiles and analyses of small RNAs, particularly the large class of 24-nucleotide (nt) short interfering RNAs (siRNAs), were done for wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana and silencing pathway mutants...

Amplification and dampening of soil respiration by changes in temperature variability

Creator:: Sierra, C. A., Harmon, M. E., Thomann, E., Perakis, S. S., and Loescher, H. W.
Abstract:: Accelerated release of carbon from soils is one of the most important feedbacks related to anthropogenically induced climate change. Studies addressing the mechanisms for soil carbon release through organic matter decomposition have focused on the effect of changes in the average temperature, with little attention to changes in temperature variability....

Assessing De Novo transcriptome assembly metrics for consistency and utility

Creator:: O’Neil, Shawn T. and Emrich, Scott J.
Abstract:: Background: Transcriptome sequencing and assembly represent a great resource for the study of non-model species, and many metrics have been used to evaluate and compare these assemblies. Unfortunately, it is still unclear which of these metrics accurately reflect assembly quality. Results: We simulated sequencing transcripts of Drosophila melanogaster. By assembling...

High-Throughput Sequencing of Arabidopsis microRNAs : Evidence for Frequent Birth and Death of MIRNA Genes

Creator:: Fahlgren, Noah, Howell, Miya D., Kasschau, Kristin D., Sullivan, Christopher M., Cumbie, Jason S., Givan, Scott A., Law, Theresa F., Grant, Sarah R., Dangl, Jeffrey L., and Carrington, James C.
Abstract:: In plants, microRNAs (miRNAs) comprise one of two classes of small RNAs that function primarily as negative regulators at the posttranscriptional level. Several MIRNA genes in the plant kingdom are ancient, with conservation extending between angiosperms and the mosses, whereas many others are more recently evolved. Here, we use deep...

Circumpolar Diversity and Geographic Differentiation of mtDNA in the Critically Endangered Antarctic Blue Whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia)

Creator:: Sremba, Angela L., Hancock-Hanser, Brittany, Branch, Trevor A., LeDuc, Rick L., and Baker, C. Scott
Abstract:: The Antarctic blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia) was hunted to near extinction between 1904 and 1972, declining from an estimated initial abundance of more than 250,000 to fewer than 400. Here, we describe mtDNA control region diversity and geographic differentiation in the surviving population of the Antarctic blue whale, using...

Quantification of Habitat and Community Relationships among Nearshore Temperate Fishes Through Analysis of Drop Camera Video

Creator:: Easton, Ryan R., Heppell, Selina S., and Hannah, Robert W.
Abstract:: Temperate nearshore reefs along the Pacific coast of North America are highly valuable to commercial and recreational fisheries yet comprise a small fraction of the seabed. Monitoring fisheries resources in this region is difficult; high-relief structural complexity and adverse sea conditions have led to a paucity of information on temperate...
