DNA barcoding of eight North American coregonine species.
Coregonine fishes have a circumpolar distribution in the Arctic and sub-Arctic Northern Hemisphere. This subfamily of Salmonidae consists of three genera: Prosopium, Stenodus and Coregonus, including over 30 species. Many species overlap spatially and are difficult to distinguish based on morphological characteristics, especially as larvae or juveniles. Here we present a method for rapid and co...
متن کاملThe Use of Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) Markers in Sex Discrimination in Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Pisces: Cichlidae)
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were successfully used in discrimination of sexes in Nile tilapia fish (Oreochromis niloticus) using linear discriminant function analysis. The results provide support for the view that major genetical sex determining factors exist in tilapia.
متن کاملMucus entrapment of particles by a suspension-feeding tilapia (Pisces: Cichlidae)
A miniature fiberoptic endoscope was used to observe the processes of particle encounter and retention inside the buccopharyngeal cavity of suspension-feeding tilapia. Small particles (38 µm to 1.0 mm in diameter) were trapped in strands and aggregates of mucus, which usually slid posteriorly on the ceratobranchials of arches I­IV towards the esophagus while the fish pumped water thro...
متن کاملCharacterization of Extended-Spectrum Beta-lactamase from Escherichia coli and Klebsiella Species from North Eastern Nigeria.
INTRODUCTION Resistance to antimicrobials has become a serious global health concern complicating treatment strategies and increasing health-care costs. The extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing bacteria stand out as bacteria of great epidemic concern among Gram negative bacilli. Control and appropriate interventions for antimicrobial resistance depend on effective surveillance and knowled...
متن کاملEvaluation of arid region browse species from north eastern Nigeria using pen fed goats.
Four 18-26 months old castrated Borno whitexSokoto Red goats were used in a 4x4 Latin square design to measure the dry matter intake (DMI), daily body weight change and dry matter digestibility (DMD) of four native Nigerian browse species, (Ziziphus spinochrist, Wild., Acacia albida, Del., Sterculia satigera, Guill. and Anogeissus licocarpus, Guill.) native to the semi-arid regions. The mean DM...
