Epidermal changes caused by a chytridiomycete fungus (Chytridiomycota; Chytridiales) were found in sick and dead adult anurans collected from montane rain forests Queensland (Australia) Panama during mass mortality events associated with significant population declines. We also have this new disease morbidity wild captive additional locations Australia Central America. This is the first report of parasitism vertebrate member phylum Chytridiomycota. Experimental data support conclusion that...
Sequences of nuclear-encoded small-subunit rRNA genes have been determined for representatives the enigmatic genera Dermocystidium, Ichthyophonus, and Psorospermium, protistan parasites fish crustaceans. The from these "rosette agent" (also a parasite fish) together form novel, statistically supported clade. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrate this clade to diverge near animal-fungal dichotomy, although more precise resolution is problematic. In most parsimonious maximally likely phylogenetic...
Bivalves from the Great Barrier Reef were examined for Perkinsus infection using thioglycollate method (Ray 1966).They taken Heron, Lizard, Orpheus, North Direction and Thetford Reefs.Thirty of 84 species Infected (160 out 644 individuals).They belonged to 23 families.The 4 most frequently infected families, in descending order, Chamidae, Arcidae, Tridacnidae Spondylidae.All moribund Tr~dacna gigas infected.
Infections of Perkinsus spp.were initiated In 9 mollusc species using zoospores from cultured prezoosporangia held in petri dishes containing seawater We transferred parasites isolated bivalves to gastropods and vice versa.Isolates tropical, subtropical temperate hosts were different climate origins.Some hosts, e.g.Saccostrea commercialis, largely refractory, with only light infections developing a few molluscs.Other e.g.Anaddra trapezia P~nctada sugillata, became heav~ly infected.An...

Connecting people with nature improves well-being, but how connect natural places is not well documented. We asked 43 (19 Aboriginal Australians, 24 non-Aboriginal people) about the messages they received from Country during an interactive experience in remote Mungo National Park, Australia, and analysed physical senses, emotions cognitive processes mentioned. The senses mentioned by most respondents were sight, hearing motion (particularly walking). These helped receive place. used...

We used nucleotide sequence data from the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene cluster to determine affinities of rhizocephalans reported be Sacculina carcini which parasitize different portunid hosts: green crab Carcinus maenas Sweden; C. England; Liocarcinus marmoreus Ireland; and holsatus Wales. There were no differences in 3′ region small subunit (SSU) (160 bp) internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) (274 rRNA these parasites.

Nucleotide sequence data from the Internal Transcribed Spacer 1 (ITS1) in ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene cluster were used to determine utility of molecular discriminate species and genera pseudocerotid turbellarians. We sequenced 388, 379 415 bp ITS1 Pseudoceros jebborum, paralaticlavus Pseudobiceros gratus respectively, give an aligned for this region 421 positions. The nucleotide jebborum differed that by 6% (24/421 positions) 36% (152/421 positions). These results indicate will be a useful...

Protecting the environment requires scientists to work with a range of people including land managers, planners, policy makers and regulators.The literature abounds challenges different 'cultures' working together effectively so scientific results are translated into practice.To address these challenges, we wanted document factors that produce successful partnerships between practitioners from cultures, determine which were most important in producing an enduring legacy.We asked 12...
The social dimensions of knowledge management are often overlooked when attempting to develop innovative approaches preserve and balance the multiple values protected natural landscapes. This oversight can hinder incorporation from research experience, particularly tacit held by experts experienced individuals. Building connection between leaders, researchers staff within an organisation address this challenge because it fosters dissemination. However, be a slower, more costly challenging...
