impact of environmental bacterial communities on fish health in marine recirculating aquaculture systems. | marine cultured fish diseases caused by bacteria in recirculating aquaculture systems (rass) greatly threaten fish aquaculture. to date, the dynamics of bacterial populations in ras and their impacts to fish health remain largely unknown. in the present study, the bacterial communities in the water from two different marine rass were analyzed using pyrosequencing technique. fish disease syndromes and mortality had been reported from one ras (ras-d) while the fish in the other ras remained health ... | 2017 | 28619164 |
interspecific transmission and recovery of tcbs-induced disease between acanthaster planci and linckia guildingi. | the susceptibility of the coral-feeding crown-of-thorns starfish acanthaster planci to disease may provide an avenue with which to effectively control population outbreaks that have caused severe and widespread coral loss in the indo-pacific. injecting thiosulfate-citrate-bile-sucrose (tcbs) agar into a. planci tissues induced a disease characterized by dermal lesions, loss of skin turgor, collapsed spines, and accumulation of mucus on spine tips. moreover, the symptoms (and presumably the agent ... | 2012 | 22968793 |
deletion of integron-associated gene cassettes impact on the surface properties of vibrio rotiferianus dat722. | the integron is a genetic recombination system that catalyses the acquisition of genes on mobilisable elements called gene cassettes. in vibrio species, multiple acquired gene cassettes form a cassette array that can comprise 1-3% of the bacterial genome. since 75% of these gene cassettes contain genes encoding proteins of uncharacterised function, how the integron has driven adaptation and evolution in vibrio species remains largely unknown. a feature of cassette arrays is the presence of large ... | 2013 | 23484028 |
the function of integron-associated gene cassettes in vibrio species: the tip of the iceberg. | the integron is a genetic element that incorporates mobile genes termed gene cassettes into a reserved genetic site via site-specific recombination. it is best known for its role in antibiotic resistance with one type of integron, the class 1 integron, a major player in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes across gram negative pathogens and commensals. however, integrons are ancient structures with over 100 classes (including class 1) present in bacteria from the broader environment. ... | 2013 | 24367362 |
