Fine Structure of the Gas Bladder of Alligator Gar, Atractosteus spatula
Anthropogenic factors seriously affect water quality and adversely affect fish populations. Agricultural run-off accumulates in the Mississippi River and the coastal estuaries. Alligator gar (Atractosteus spatula) inhabits these waters and is impacted by agricultural pollution, petrochemical contaminants and oil spills. These fish are bimodal air breathers, and use a primitive lung as an access...
متن کاملStructure and fracture resistance of alligator gar (Atractosteus spatula) armored fish scales.
The alligator gar is a large fish with flexible armor consisting of ganoid scales. These scales contain a thin layer of ganoine (microhardness ~2.5 GPa) and a bony body (microhardness ~400 MPa), with jagged edges that provide effective protection against predators. We describe here the structure of both ganoine and bony foundation and characterize the mechanical properties and fracture mechanis...
متن کاملCloning of the growth hormone cDNA of alligator gar Atractosteus spatula and its expression through larval development.
The alligator gar (Atractosteus spatula) is the largest freshwater fish inhabiting rivers draining into the Gulf of Mexico. This primitive fish shows a fast growth rate since its early larval stages. This is attributed to the action of growth hormone (GH), an anterior pituitary gland hormone responsible for linear growth in vertebrates that can also be expressed in extrapituitary adult tissues ...

امروزه استفاده از منابع انرژی پراکنده کاربرد وسیعی یافته است . اگر چه این منابع بسیاری از مشکلات شبکه را حل می کنند اما زیاد شدن آنها مسائل فراوانی برای سیستم قدرت به همراه دارد . استفاده از میکروشبکه راه حلی است که علاوه بر استفاده از مزایای منابع انرژی پراکنده برخی از مشکلات ایجاد شده توسط آنها را نیز منتفی می کند . همچنین میکروشبکه ها کیفیت برق و قابلیت اطمینان تامین انرژی مشترکان را افزایش ...
15 صفحه اولModeling the Sensitivity of Field Surveys for Detection of Environmental DNA (eDNA)
The environmental DNA (eDNA) method is the practice of collecting environmental samples and analyzing them for the presence of a genetic marker specific to a target species. Little is known about the sensitivity of the eDNA method. Sensitivity is the probability that the target marker will be detected if it is present in the water body. Methods and tools are needed to assess the sensitivity of ...
