The genome sequence of nervous necrosis virus strain KS1 isolated from orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) was cloned and analyzed. The viral genome is composed of two single-stranded positive-sense RNA molecules, RNA1 and RNA2. Phylogenetic analysis shows that the virus strain KS1 belongs to the red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus genotype.

Tidal dynamics of shallow estuaries and lagoons is a complex matter that has attracted the attention of a large number of researchers over the last few decades. The main purpose of the present work is to study the intricate tidal dynamics of the Tagus estuary, which states as the largest estuary of the Iberian Peninsula and one of the most important wetlands in Portugal and Europe. Tagus has la...

The mangrove formations of Godavari estuary are due to silting over many centuries. The estuary covers an area of 62,000 ha of which dense Coringa mangrove forest spread in 6,600 ha. Satellite sensor data was used to detect change in the mangrove cover for a period of 12 years (1992-2004). It was found that an area of about 1,250 ha of mangroves was destroyed by anthropogenic interference like ...

Establishment of reliable pedigree information different lineages is crucial for selective breeding and stock enhancement programs. However, owing to the absence a assay parentage assignment, such lacking in orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides), which an economically important coral-reef fish. In this study, we developed two multiplex microsatellite polymerase chain reaction systems th...

Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is a gram-negative pathogenic bacterium that causes visceral white spot disease in several marine and aquaculture fish species, resulting high mortality severe financial loss. Based on previous RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), fliK gene expression significantly up-regulated P. during infection, indicating may contribute to its bacterial pathogenicity. To investigate the rol...

Different levels of eutrophication and pollution in the Baltic coastal waters in general, and in estuaries particularly define variations in the buffering capacity of ecosystems of these important filter zones between rivers and the adjacent Baltic Proper. Phyto- and zooplankton in the estuaries form important components of the pelagic food webs that participate in producing and structuring the...

This research aims to explain the kinship or phylogeny of grouper fish Serranidae family based on Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI). Analysis previous obtained type inhabiting Indonesian waters.
