| molecular identification of anisakis species from pleuronectiformes off the portuguese coast. | anisakid nematodes belonging to the anisakis simplex complex are highly prevalent in several fish species off the coast of portugal and are an important zoonotic problem in the iberian peninsula. two reproductively isolated sibling species of the anisakis simplex complex were identified from pleuronectiformes inhabiting the portuguese coast using restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp). recombinant genotypes corresponding to presumptive anisakis simplex sensu stricto and anisakis pegreff ... | 2006 | 16469172 |
| phylogenetic relationships among ten sole species (soleidae, pleuronectiformes) from the gulf of cadiz (spain) based on mitochondrial dna sequences. | the entire sequence of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene and 2 partial sequences of the ribosomal rna12s and 16s genes have been used to study the molecular phylogeny in 10 species of soles belonging to the genera solea, monochirus, microchirus, dicologlossa, and synaptura from the atlantic waters of the gulf of cadiz (spain). the results obtained by means of different phylogenetic analyses (maximum likelihood, maximum parsimony, and neighbor-joining) were quite similar, supporting the monophy ... | 2006 | 15747091 |
| pseudomonas baetica sp. nov., a novel fish pathogen isolated from wedge sole, dicologoglossa cuneata (moreau). | five gram negative bacterial isolates recovered from an outbreak occurred in march 2006 in huelva, spain, affecting adult diseased cultured wedge sole (dicologoglossa cuneata), were phenotypically and genotypically characterized in order to clarify its taxonomic position. on the basis of 16s rrna gene sequence analysis isolates were included in the genus pseudomonas, within the p. fluorescens-related species group, being their closest relatives the p. jessenii and p. koreensis subgroups. the hig ... | 2011 | 21642488 |
| in vivo genotoxicity and stress defences in three flatfish species exposed to cuso4. | we have used the comet assay to analyse, after 3h, 24h and 6 days, the genotoxic effect in vivo of applying a single intraperitoneal injection of cuso4, at a concentration of 2mg/kg, to adult specimens of solea senegalensis, dicologlossa cuneata and scophthalmus rhombus. metals content (cu, zn and cd) in liver was also measured. the activity of key stress defences was evaluated by analysing antioxidant enzyme activity (catalase (cat), superoxide dismutase (sod), total glutathione peroxidase (t-g ... | 2010 | 20678796 |
