The genus Pseudogymnoascus includes several species frequently isolated from extreme environments worldwide, including cold such as Antarctica. This study describes three new of — P. russus sp. nov. , irelandiae and ramosus —isolated Antarctic soils. These represent the first taxa to be formally described soil samples, expanding our understanding fungal biodiversity in this environment. Microscopic descriptions asexual structures living cultures, along with measurements cultural...
Reef-building corals contain a complex consortium of organisms, holobiont, which responds dynamically to disease, making pathogen identification difficult. While coral transcriptomics and microbiome communities have previously been characterized, similarities differences in their responses different pathogenic sources has not yet assessed. In this study, we inoculated four genets the Caribbean branching Acropora palmata with known ( Serratia marcescens ) white band disease. We then...
<title>Abstract</title> Coral reefs are experiencing decreases in coral cover due to anthropogenic influences. restoration is addressing this decline by outplanting large volumes of corals onto reef systems. Understanding how outplanted react at a transcriptomic level different outplant locations over time important, as it will highlight habitat affects the host and influences physiological measures. In study, dynamics four genets <italic>Acropora palmata</italic>were assessed year three...
This is the protocol used to extract DNA and RNA from same piece of coral tissue skeleton using Zymo DNA/RNA MagBead ZymoBIOMICS kits with automation on KingFisher Flex. Protocol goes sampling storage sample prep for protocols KINGFISHER
The family Batrachoididae are a group of ecologically important teleost fishes with unique life histories, behavior, and physiology that has made them popular model organisms. remain understudied in the realm genomics, only four reference genome assemblies available for family, three being highly fragmented not up to current assembly standards. Among these is Gulf toadfish, Opsanus beta, organism serotonin which recently been bred captivity.
Introduction Coral reef ecosystems are experiencing increased rates of carbonate dissolution due to losses in live coral cover coupled with the impacts ocean acidification (OA) on calcifiers and bioeroders. While stimulating effect OA bioerosion has been demonstrated experimentally, predominantly Pacific, underlying physiological molecular mechanisms behind response still poorly understood. Methods To address this, we subjected common zooxanthellate ( Cliona varians ) azooxanthellate Pione...
