Molecular Detection of Betanodavirus in Wild Marine Fish Populations in Korea

Molecular detection of betanodavirus in wild marine fish populations in Korea.

Viral nervous necrosis (VNN) is a worldwide disease affecting several species of cultured marine fish. In Korea, VNN has been identified in several species of cultured marine fish. In this study, the authors present data of the amplified nested polymerase chain reaction product (420 bp) of 21 nodavirus strains from different species of apparently healthy wild marine fish on the southern coast o...

Evidence of Melanoma in Wild Marine Fish Populations

The increase in reports of novel diseases in a wide range of ecosystems, both terrestrial and marine, has been linked to many factors including exposure to novel pathogens and changes in the global climate. Prevalence of skin cancer in particular has been found to be increasing in humans, but has not been reported in wild fish before. Here we report extensive melanosis and melanoma (skin cancer...

Molecular detection of betanodavirus from the farmed fish, Platax orbicularis (Forsskal) (Ephippidae), in French Polynesia.

Social recognition in wild fish populations.

The ability of animals to gather information about their social and physical environment is essential for their ecological function. Odour cues are an important component of this information gathering across taxa. Recent laboratory studies have revealed the importance of flexible chemical cues in facilitating social recognition of fishes. These cues are known to be mediated by recent habitat ex...

molecular and physiological characterizations of floral scent production in rosa damascena mill.

گل محمدی (r. damascena mill.)مهمترین گونه ای است که در تولید گلاب، عطر و اسانس، در صنعت عطرسازی و دارویی کاربرد دارد. با وجود اهمیت عطر گل محمدی، پژوهش های مولکولی و بیوشیمیایی عطر گل این گونه هنوز در مراحل ابتدایی است. در این پژوهش، ویژگی های مولکولی و فیزیولوژیکی تولید عطر در گل محمدی در آزمایش های مختلف مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند. در آزمایش اول، پژوهشی به منظور بررسی تنوع شیمیایی اسانس میان 44 ت...
