Can parasites halt the invader? Mermithid nematodes parasitizing the yellow-legged Asian hornet in France

Creator:: Villemant, Claire, Zuccon, Dario, Rome, Quentin, Muller, Franck, Poinar, George O., Jr., and Justine, Jean-Lou
Abstract:: Since its introduction in France 10 years ago, the yellow-legged Asian bee-hawking hornet Vespa velutina has rapidly spread to neighboring countries (Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Italy, and Germany), becoming a new threat to beekeeping activities. While introduced species often leave behind natural enemies from their original home, which benefits them in...

Sixty years of change in avian communities of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Curtis, Jenna R. and Robinson, W. Douglas
Abstract:: Bird communities are influenced by local and regional processes. The degree to which communities are dynamic has implications for projecting responses in community composition as birds track geographic shifts of their habitats. Historic datasets offer a legacy of information that can be used to quantify changes over time in avian...

Emerging semantics to link phenotype and environment

Creator:: Thessen, Anne E., Bunkers, Daniel E., Buttigieg, Pier Luigi, Cooper, Laurel D., Dahdul, Wasila M., Domisch, Sami, Franz, Nico M., Jaiswal, Pankaj, Lawrence-Dill, Carolyn J., Midford, Peter E., Mungall, Christopher J., Ramírez, Martín J., Specht, Chelsea D., Vogt, Lars, Aldo Vos, Rutger, Walls, Ramona L., White, Jeffrey W., Zhang, Guanyang, Deans, Andrew R., Huala, Eva, Lewis, Suzanna E., and Mabee, Paula M.
Abstract:: Understanding the interplay between environmental conditions and phenotypes is a fundamental goal of biology. Unfortunately, data that include observations on phenotype and environment are highly heterogeneous and thus difficult to find and integrate. One approach that is likely to improve the status quo involves the use of ontologies to standardize...

Poppr: an R package for genetic analysis of populations with clonal, partially clonal, and/or sexual reproduction

Creator:: Kamvar, Zhian N., Tabima, Javier F., and Grünwald, Niklaus J.
Abstract:: Many microbial, fungal, or oomcyete populations violate assumptions for population genetic analysis because these populations are clonal, admixed, partially clonal, and/or sexual. Furthermore, few tools exist that are specifically designed for analyzing data from clonal populations, making analysis difficult and haphazard. We developed the R package poppr providing unique tools...

The effects of venting and decompression on Yellow Tang (Zebrasoma flavescens) in the marine ornamental aquarium fish trade

Creator:: Munday, Emily S., Tissot, Brian N., Heidel, Jerry R., and Miller-Morgan, Tim
Abstract:: Each year, over 45 countries export 30 million fish from coral reefs as part of the global marine ornamental aquarium trade. This catch volume is partly influenced by collection methods that cause mortality. Barotrauma in fish resulting from forced ascent from depth can contribute to post-collection mortality. However, implementing decompression...

Effects of low and high dose intraarticular tiludronate on synovial fluid and clinical variables in healthy horses—a preliminary investigation

Creator:: Duesterdieck-Zellmer, Katja F., Moneta, Lindsey, Ott, Jesse F., Larson, Maureen K., Gorman, Elena M., Hunter, Barbara, Löhr, Christiane V., Payton, Mark E., Morré, Jeffrey T., and Maier, Claudia S.
Abstract:: To determine effects of intraarticularly administered tiludronate on articular cartilage in vivo, eight healthy horses were injected once with tiludronate (low dose tiludronate [LDT] 0.017 mg, n = 4; high dose tiludronate [HDT] 50 mg, n = 4) into one middle carpal joint and with saline into the contralateral joint....

Culture of equine fibroblast-like synoviocytes on synthetic tissue scaffolds towards meniscal tissue engineering: a preliminary cell-seeding study

Creator:: Warnock, Jennifer J., Fox, Derek B., Stoker, Aaron M., Beatty, Mark, Cockrell, Mary, Janicek, John C., and Cook, James L.
Abstract:: INTRODUCTION: Tissue engineering is a new methodology for addressing meniscal injury or loss. Synovium may be an ideal source of cells for in vitro meniscal fibrocartilage formation, however, favorable in vitro culture conditions for synovium must be established in order to achieve this goal. The objective of this study was...

Influence of sediment characteristics on the composition of soft-sediment intertidal communities in the northern Gulf of Mexico

Creator:: Coblentz, Kyle E., Henkel, Jessica R., Sigel, Bryan J., and Taylor, Caz M.
Abstract:: Benthic infaunal communities are important components of coastal ecosystems. Understanding the relationships between the structure of these communities and characteristics of the habitat in which they live is becoming progressively more important as coastal systems face increasing stress from anthropogenic impacts and changes in climate. To examine how sediment characteristics...

Genes affecting novel seed constituents in Limnanthes alba Benth: transcriptome analysis of developing embryos and a new genetic map of meadowfoam

Creator:: Slabaugh, Mary B., Cooper, Laurel D., Kishore, Venkata K., Knapp, Steven J., and Kling, Jennifer G.
Abstract:: The seed oil of meadowfoam, a new crop in the Limnanthaceae family, is highly enriched in very long chain fatty acids that are desaturated at the Δ5 position. The unusual oil is desirable for cosmetics and innovative industrial applications and the seed meal remaining after oil extraction contains glucolimnanthin, a...

Re-examining the relationship between invasive lionfish and native grouper in the Caribbean

Creator:: Valdivia, Abel, Bruno, John F., Cox, Courtney E., Hackerott, Serena, and Green, Stephanie J.
Abstract:: Biotic resistance is the idea that native species negatively affect the invasion success of introduced species, but whether this can occur at large spatial scales is poorly understood. Here we re-evaluated the hypothesis that native large-bodied grouper and other predators are controlling the abundance of exotic lionfish (Pterois volitans/miles) on...
