متن کاملIndication of family-specific DNA methylation patterns in developing oysters
The roles of DNA methylation during invertebrate development remain enigmatic, especially regarding the inheritance and ontogenetic dynamics of methylation. Here, we characterized the genome-wide methylome of Crassostrea gigas sperm and larvae from two full-sib families nested within a maternal half-sib family across several developmental stages. Our data suggest that DNA methylation patterns a...
متن کاملPolicyMiner: From Oysters to Pearls
Today, a historically unprecedented volume of data is available in the public domain with the potential of becoming useful for researchers. More than at any other time before, political parties and governments are making data available such as speeches, legislative bills and acts. However, as the size of available data increases, the need for sophisticated tools for web-harvesting and data anal...
متن کاملVirus-contaminated oysters: a three-month monitoring of oysters imported to Switzerland.
Molluscan shellfish are known to be carriers of viral and bacterial pathogens. The consumption of raw oysters has been repeatedly linked to outbreaks of viral gastroenteritis and hepatitis A. Switzerland imports over 300 tons of oysters per year, 95% of which originate in France. To assess the level of viral contamination, a 3-month monitoring study was conducted. Therefore, the sensitivities o...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent stress response in oysters, Crassostrea virginica: pollution reduces temperature tolerance in oysters.
Combined effects of temperature and a toxic metal, cadmium (Cd), on energy metabolism were studied in a model marine bivalve, the eastern oyster Crassostrea virginica, acclimated at 20, 24 and 28 degrees C and exposed to 50microgl(-1) of Cd. Both increasing temperature and Cd exposure led to a rise in standard metabolic rates, and combined stressors appeared to override the capability for aerob...
