Thylacinidae
FAUNA of AUSTRALIA 20. THYLACINIDAE JOAN M. DIXON 1 Thylacine–Thylacinus cynocephalus [F. Knight/ANPWS] 20. THYLACINIDAE DEFINITION AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION The single member of the family Thylacinidae, Thylacinus cynocephalus, known as the Thylacine, Tasmanian Tiger or Wolf, is a large carnivorous marsupial (Fig. 20.1). Generally sandy yellow in colour, it has 15 to 20 distinct transverse dark stripes across the back from shoulders to tail. While the large head is reminiscent of the dog and wolf, the tail is long and characteristically stiff and the legs are relatively short. Body hair is dense, short and soft, up to 15 mm in length. Body proportions are similar to those of the Tasmanian Devil, Sarcophilus harrisii, the Eastern Quoll, Dasyurus viverrinus and the Tiger Quoll, Dasyurus maculatus. The Thylacine is digitigrade. There are five digital pads on the forefoot and four on the hind foot. Figure 20.1 Thylacine, side view of the whole animal. (© ABRS)[D. Kirshner] The face is fox-like in young animals, wolf- or dog-like in adults. Hairs on the cheeks, above the eyes and base of the ears are whitish-brown. Facial vibrissae are relatively shorter, finer and fewer than in Tasmanian Devils and Quolls. The short ears are about 80 mm long, erect, rounded and covered with short fur. Sexual dimorphism occurs, adult males being larger on average. Jaws are long and powerful and the teeth number 46. In the vertebral column there are only two sacrals instead of the usual three and from 23 to 25 caudal vertebrae rather than 20 to 21. -

A model for virtual simulation analysis of the rigid-fexible coupling of a shearer has been developed with the objective of addressing problems associated with lifetime mismatch and low reliability of pin rows of a scraper conveyor and the corresponding support mechanism of a shearer. Simulations were performed using the experimental roller load as stimulus. Results of the analysis demonstrate that the vertical cutting force on the roller serves to reduce the load on the plane support plates during shearer cutting, and the force on the right plane support plate is considerably smaller compared to that on the lef plane support plate along the direction of motion of the shearer. -

Encouraged by the support of William Sorell, the former Lieutenant- Governor, and Edward Curr, who had recently returned from the colony, they formed the Van Diemen’s Land Company and applied to Lord Bathurst for a grant of 500,000 acres. Bathurst agreed to a grant of 250,000 acres. The Van Diemen’s Land Company received a royal charter in 1825 giving it the right to cultivate land, build roads and bridges, lend money to colonists, execute public works, and build and buy houses, wharves and other buildings. Curr was appointed the chief agent of the Company in Van Diemen’s Land. -

The elucidation of their genome 16 would therefore be highly impactful with regard to the control of environmental 17 pollution. Therefore, in this study, two indigenous strains of aquatic Fusarium, QHM 18 and BWC1, were isolated from a coal mine pit and a subterranean river respectively, 19 cultured under acidic conditions, and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis of these two 20 isolates was conducted based on the sequences of internal transcript (ITS1 and ITS4) 21 and encoding β-microtubulin (TUB2), translation elongation factors (TEFs) and the 1 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/659755; this version posted June 4, 2019.

Biopesticides – Expectations for Control
Biopesticides – Expectations for Control Jeanette Gaultier, Crops Knowledge Centre, Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives, Carman, MB R0G 0J0 Email: [email protected] A biopesticide is a naturally occurring organism or substance that can be used to control pests. The term ‘biopesticide’ can be applied to microorganisms, biochemicals and plant extracts that are used as pest control products. Although not the case in Canada, some countries also consider plants with ‘incorporated protectants’ (i.e. transgenic crops) as biopesticides. Interest in biopesticides is increasing because such products are often recognized as ‘reduced’ or ‘low’ risk alternatives to conventional pesticides. In Canada, a pesticide is considered to be of reduced risk if human health and/or environmental risks are decreased relative to other pesticides registered for the same use. General characteristics of reduced risk pesticides include (PMRA, 2002): • Low toxicity; • Limited effects on non-target organisms; • Good environmental profile; • Low pest resistance potential; • Decreased application rates or applications; and • Compatible with integrated pest management principles. A product doesn’t have to be a biopesticide to be considered reduced risk. Conversely, biopesticides are often, but not always, classified as reduced risk. Biopesticides currently account for only a small percentage (~1%) of the global pesticide market (Copping and Menn, 2000; Warrior, 2000; Rodgers, 1993). These products have generally found commercial success in niche markets such as horticulture, greenhouse, nursery and ornamental, and organic production. Uptake and use of biopesticides in conventional field crop agriculture remains low. Why is this the case? What should agricultural producers expect from biopesticides? Regulatory Expectations All pesticides, including biopesticides, available for use in Canada are regulated by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA). -

In January 1998, UNITAR formally joined the IOMC as a Participating Organization. The purpose of the IOMC is to promote coordination of the policies and activities pursued by the Participating Organizations, jointly or separately, to achieve the sound management of chemicals in relation to human health and the environment.

Glyphosate: Unsafe on Any Plate
GLYPHOSATE: UNSAFE ON ANY PLATE ALARMING LEVELS OF MONSANTO’S GLYPHOSATE FOUND IN POPULAR AMERICAN FOODS “For the first time in the history of the world, every human being is now subjected to contact with dangerous chemicals from the moment of conception until death…These chemicals are now stored in the bodies of the vast majority of human beings, regardless of age. They occur in the mother’s milk, and probably in the tissues of the unborn child.”1 —RACHEL CARSON, SILENT SPRING “Glyphosate was significantly higher in humans [fed] conventional [food] compared with predominantly organic [fed] humans. Also the glyphosate residues in urine were grouped according to the human health status. Chronically ill humans had significantly higher glyphosate residues in urine than healthy humans”2 —MONIKA KRUGER, ENVIRONMENTAL & ANALYTICAL TOXICOLOGY “Analysis of individual tissues demonstrated that bone contained the highest concentration of [14C] glyphosate equivalents (0.3–31ppm). The remaining tissues contained glyphosate equivalents at a concentration of between 0.0003 and 11 ppm. In the bone and some highly perfused tissues, levels were statistically higher in males than in females.”3 —PESTICIDE RESIDUES IN FOOD, JOINT FAO/WHO MEETING 2004 1 Rachel Carson, Silent Spring, (Houghton Mifflin, 1961), Elixirs of Death, 15-16. 2 Krüger M, Schledorn P, Schrödl W, Hoppe HW, Lutz W, et al.
