Hyperdiverse Gene Cluster in Snail Host Conveys Resistance to Human Schistosome Parasites

Creator:: Tennessen, Jacob A., Théron, André, Marine, Melanie, Yeh, Jan-Ying, Rognon, Anne, and Blouin, Michael S.
Abstract:: Schistosomiasis, a neglected global pandemic, may be curtailed by blocking transmission of the parasite via its intermediate hosts, aquatic snails. Elucidating the genetic basis of snail-schistosome interaction is a key to this strategy. Here we map a natural parasite-resistance polymorphism from a Caribbean population of the snail Biomphalaria glabrata. In...

Multiple steroid and thyroid hormones detected in baleen from eight whale species

Creator:: Lysiak, Nadine S., Moore, Michael J., Hunt, Kathleen E., Robbins, Jooke, Seton, Rosemary E., Buck, C. Loren, and Torres, Leigh G.
Abstract:: Recent studies have demonstrated that some hormones are present in baleen powder from bowhead (Balaena mysticetus) and North Atlantic right (Eubalaena glacialis) whales. To test the potential generalizability of this technique for studies of stress and reproduction in large whales, we sought to determine whether all major classes of steroid...

Genome-Wide Scan and Test of Candidate Genes in the Snail Biomphalaria glabrata Reveal New Locus Influencing Resistance to Schistosoma mansoni

Creator:: Tennessen, Jacob A., Bonner, Kaitlin M., Bollmann, Stephanie R., Johnstun, Joel A., Yeh, Jan-Ying, Marine, Melanie, Tavalire, Hannah F., Bayne, Christopher J., and Blouin, Michael S.
Abstract:: Background: New strategies to combat the global scourge of schistosomiasis may be revealed by increased understanding of the mechanisms by which the obligate snail host can resist the schistosome parasite. However, few molecular markers linked to resistance have been identified and characterized in snails. Methodology/Principal Findings: Here we test six...

Volcanic Eruptions in the Deep Sea

Creator:: Rubin, Kenneth H., Soule, S. Adam, Chadwick, William W., Jr., Fornari, Daniel J., Clague, David A., Embley, Robert W., Baker, Edward T., Perfit, Michael R., Caress, David W., and Dziak, Robert P.
Abstract:: Volcanic eruptions are important events in Earth’s cycle of magma generation and crustal construction. Over durations of hours to years, eruptions produce new deposits of lava and/or fragmentary ejecta, transfer heat and magmatic volatiles from Earth’s interior to the overlying air or seawater, and significantly modify the landscape and perturb...

Abstract:: Despite a large and multifaceted effort to understand the vast landscape of phenotypic data, their current form inhibits productive data analysis. The lack of a community-wide, consensus-based, human- and machine-interpretable language for describing phenotypes and their genomic and environmental contexts is perhaps the most pressing scientific bottleneck to integration across...
