Of these species, T. hakonensis is widely distributed in Japan and is important in commercial and recreational fisheries. Two species, T. hakonensis and T. brandtii, exhibit anadromy. In this paper, information on the protistan and metazoan parasites of the four species of Tribolodon in Japan is compiled based on the literature published for 106 years between 1908 and 2013, and the parasites, including 44 named species and those not identified to species level, are listed by higher taxon as follows: Ciliophora (2 named species), Myxozoa (1), Trematoda (18), Monogenea (0), Cestoda (3), Nematoda (9), Acanthocephala (2), Hirudinida (1), Mollusca (1), Branchiura (0), Copepoda (6 ), and Isopoda (1). For each taxon of parasite, the following information is given: its currently recognized scientific name, previous identification used for the parasite occurring in or on Tribolodon spp.; habitat (freshwater, brackish, or marine); site(s) of infection within or on the host; known geographical distribution in Japan; and the published source of each locality record.

No severe natural phenomena bring about disaster by themselves. When defense against one type of disaster has been established, another unexpected form often occurs thereafter. Disaster evolves because the human society evolves. Although we can not avoid new types of disasters, it is possible to decrease the destruction done by disasters by acting on information obtained from detailed, continuous studies of natural phenomena. Following rules may be applied to the evolution in the form of the natural disasters. A new type of disaster occurs during the process of the recovery when man breaks the balance of nature. Similar scale of natural phenomena does not necessarily cause disasters. The deciding factor is the existing state of the human society involved. Evolution of disaster occurs even without unusual natural phenomena but in usual natural state. A lot of wastes induce air pollution, water pollution and geopollution. For instance, some garbage and wastes evolve harmful materials when smoke meet with fog, some chemical compound as VOC etc.

Hassan, Takanori Ishikawa, Singo SEKI and A. Mahmuda Laboratory of Aquatic Ecology, Faculty of Agriculture, Kochi University, B-200 Nankoku, Kochi 783-8502, Japan Abstract: Analyses of partial mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences support the classification of Aburahaya (Rhynchocypris lagowskii) from the Sea of Japan and Pacific Ocean. To investigate genetic population structure, we examine nucleotide sequence of the cytochrome b region. In this study we found three major geographical groups. Molecular phylogenetic analysis revealed that the population of the group 3 differentiation is 0.8759 ± 0.0333. The group 2 differentiation is 0.5333 ± 0.1801 which is collected from the Kamishyou River (Toyama Prefecture) and Hakui River (Ishikawa Prefecture) populations. The neighbor-joining tree of the mitochondrial DNA haplotypes for all specimens constructed from the Kimura’s two parameter. Among these 24 localities being clustered into 3 major geographic groups in NJ tree mtDNA segment and NJ tree mtDNA haplotype. No significant difference for the population pair wise FST was detected among these localities (P>0.05). The most parsimonious network of mtDNA haplotype of aburahaya 24 localities, estimated using the TCS algorithm. In this network showed three geographical groups. Halpotype 1-29 is one group, haplotype 30-33 is group 2 and haplotype 34-54 is group 3.

Because about 80% of pollutants entering the marine environment originate from land-based activities, the GPA implementation is supported by more than 100 Governments, the European Commission and many international and non-governmental organizations. The comprehensive, multi-sectoral approach of the GPA reflects the desire of Governments to strengthen the collaboration and coordination of all agencies with mandates relevant to the impact of land-based activities on the marine environment, through their participation in a global programme. The Second Intergovernmental Review Meeting (16-20 October 2006, Beijing, People’s Republic of China) will consider the status of GPA implementation and future actions. Several pollutant categories are covered by the GPA including sewage, persistent organic pollutants, heavy metals, oils (hydrocarbons) and nutrients. This Overview on River and Direct Inputs of Contaminants to the Marine and Coastal Environment of the Northwest Pacific has been prepared by the Pollution Monitoring Regional Activity Center (POMRAC) of NOWPAP. The Overview can be considered as a NOWPAP contribution to the GPA implementation in the Northwest Pacific region.
  • Toward Conservation of Genetic and Phenotypic Diversity in Japanese Sticklebacks

    Toward Conservation of Genetic and Phenotypic Diversity in Japanese Sticklebacks

    Genes Genet. Syst. (2016) 91, p. 77–84 Toward conservation of genetic and phenotypic diversity in Japanese sticklebacks Jun Kitano1* and Seiichi Mori2 1Division of Ecological Genetics, National Institute of Genetics, Yata 1111, Mishima, Shizuoka 411-8540, Japan 2Biological Laboratories, Gifu-keizai University, Kitakata cho 5-50, Ogaki, Gifu 503-8550, Japan (Received 16 December 2015, accepted 20 February 2016; J-STAGE Advance published date: 10 June 2016) Stickleback fishes have been established as a leading model system for studying the genetic mechanisms that underlie naturally occurring phenotypic diversification. Because of the tremendous diversification achieved by stickleback species in various environments, different geographical populations have unique phenotypes and genotypes, which provide us with unique opportunities for evolu- tionary genetic research. Among sticklebacks, Japanese species have several unique characteristics that have not been found in other populations. The sym- patric marine threespine stickleback species Gasterosteus aculeatus and G. nipponicus (Japan Sea stickleback) are a good system for speciation research. Gasterosteus nipponicus also has several unique characteristics, such as neo-sex chromosomes and courtship behaviors, that differ from those of G. aculeatus. Several freshwater populations derived from G. aculeatus (Hariyo threespine stickleback) inhabit spring-fed ponds and streams in central Honshu and exhibit year-round reproduction, which has never been observed in other stickleback populations. Four species of ninespine stickleback, including Pungitius tymensis and the freshwater, brackish water and Omono types of the P. pungitius-P. sinensis complex, are also excellent model systems for speciation research. Anthropogenic alteration of environments, however, has exposed several Japanese stickleback populations to the risk of extinction and has actually led to extinction of several populations and species.
