Neonatives and translocated species: different terms are needed for different species categories in conservation policies

Conservation patterns in different functional sequence categories of divergent Drosophila species.

We have explored the distributions of fully conserved ungapped blocks in genome-wide pair-wise alignments of recently completed species of Drosophila: D. melanogaster, D. yakuba, D. ananassae, D. pseudoobscura, D. virilis, and D. mojavensis. Based on these distributions we have found that nearly every functional sequence category possesses its own distinctive conservation pattern, sometimes ind...

H5n1 Hpai in Different Species

This chapter reviews the role of various species in the genesis, persistence and spread of Asianlineage H5N1 HPAI viruses. Special attention is paid to the domestic duck (Anas platyrhynchos var. domesticus), which is considered to have played a key role in these processes. An understanding of the role of domestic ducks in the maintenance and spread of these viruses helps to explain why the curr...

Comparative Study of L-asparaginase Activity in Different Bacterial Species

Requirements of different species for vitamins.

Comparative nutrition I43 The first is the mammalian male reproductive organs, especially the prostate gland and the sperm (Mawson & Fischer, 1952; Hoare, Delory & Penner, 1956) and a deficiency of zinc in the diet of the male rat leads to degeneration of the reproductive organs (Millar, Fischer, Elcoate & Mawson, 1958). The second is the pancreas, and this has been traced to the a-cells. The a...

Phylogenetic analysis of HSP70 gene of Aspergillus fumigatus reveals conservation intra-species and divergence inter-species

Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprophyte fungus, widely spread in a variety of ecologicalniches and the most prevalent aspergilli responsible for human and animal invasiveaspergillosis. The first step to develop novel and efficient therapies is the identificationand understanding of the key tolerance and virulence factors of pathogens. The mainfocus of the present study is to perform the similarit...
