Avian cholera in a southern giant petrel (Macronectes giganteus) from Antarctica.
A southern giant petrel (Macronectes giganteus) was found dead at Potter Peninsula, King George Island, South Shetland, Antarctica. The adult male was discovered approximately 48 hr after death. Macroscopic and microscopic lesions were compatible with avian cholera and the bacterium Pasteurella multocida subsp. gallicida, serotype A1 was isolated from lung, heart, liver, pericardial sac, and ai...
متن کاملA role for GIGANTEA
The initiation of flowering in Arabidopsis is retarded or abolished by environmental stresses. Focusing on salt stress, we provide a molecular explanation for this well-known fact. A protein complex consisting of GI, a clock component important for flowering and SOS2, a kinase activating the [Na(+)] antiporter SOS1, exists under no stress conditions. GI prevents SOS2 from activating SOS1. In th...
متن کاملStable isotopes reveal trophic segregation by sex and age in the southern giant petrel in two different food webs
We investigated trophic ecology variation among colonies as well as sexand age-related differences in the diet of the southern giant petrel Macronectes giganteus, a long-lived seabird that is sexually dimorphic in size. We measured stable isotopes (δ13C, δ15N) in blood samples collected during breeding at Bird Island (South Georgia, Antarctica) in 1998 and at 2 colonies in the Argentinean area ...
متن کاملGIGANTEA – an emerging story
GIGANTEA (GI) is a plant specific nuclear protein and functions in diverse physiological processes such as flowering time regulation, light signaling, hypocotyl elongation, control of circadian rhythm, sucrose signaling, starch accumulation, chlorophyll accumulation, transpiration, herbicide tolerance, cold tolerance, drought tolerance, and miRNA processing. It has been five decades since its d...
متن کامل'hovering' Flight of Wilson's Storm Petrel
Wilson's storm petrel (Oceanites oceanicus) characteristically feeds by ' hovering' over the water surface, but its technique for this is unlike that of other flying vertebrates. The kinematics and aerodynamics of this ' hovering' flight were investigated to determine the possible sources of lift; various nonaerodynamic sources of lift were discounted. It is suggested that the storm petrel soar...
