| identification of pectenotoxin-11 as 34s-hydroxypectenotoxin-2, a new pectenotoxin analogue in the toxic dinoflagellate dinophysis acuta from new zealand. | a new pectenotoxin, which has been named pectenotoxin-11 (ptx11), was isolated from the dinoflagellate dinophysis acuta collected from the west coast of new zealand. the structure of ptx11 was determined as 34s-hydroxypectenotoxin-2 by tandem mass spectrometry and uv and nmr spectroscopy. ptx11 appears to be only the third pectenotoxin identified as a natural biosynthetic product from algae after pectenotoxin-2 and pectenotoxin-12. the ld50 of ptx11 determined by mouse intraperitoneal injection ... | 2006 | 16485908 |
| population genetic subdivision in the new zealand greenshell mussel (perna canaliculus) inferred from single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis of mitochondrial dna. | single-strand conformation polymorphism (sscp) analysis of the nadh iv region of the mitochondrial dna (mtdna) molecule in greenshell mussels (perna canaliculus) indicated strong population genetic structuring in this endemic new zealand species. a northern and a southern group were differentiated by frequency shifts in common haplotypes and by the occurrence of a unique southern haplotype at approximately 20% frequency. this split occurred south of cook strait (the body of water between the nor ... | 2002 | 12207713 |
