  • The First Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequences For
    * Manuscript The First Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequences For Stomatopod Crustaceans: Implications for Phylogeny Kirsten Swinstrom1,2, Roy Caldwell1, H. Matthew Fourcade2 and Jeffrey L. Boore1,2 1 Department of Integrative Biology, University of California Berkeley, Berkeley, CA 2 Evolutionary Genomics Department, DOE Joint Genome Institute and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, Walnut Creek, CA For correspondence: Jeffrey Boore, DoE Joint Genome Institute, 2800 Mitchell Drive, Walnut Creek, CA 94598, phone: 925-296-5691, fax: 925-296-5620, [email protected] 1 Abstract We report the first complete mitochondrial genome sequences of stomatopods and compare their features to each other and to those of other crustaceans. Phylogenetic analyses of the concatenated mitochondrial protein-coding sequences were used to explore relationships within the Stomatopoda, within the malacostracan crustaceans, and among crustaceans and insects. Although these analyses support the monophyly of both Malacostraca and, within it, Stomatopoda, it also confirms the view of a paraphyletic Crustacea, with Malacostraca being more closely related to insects than to the branchiopod crustaceans. Key words: Stomatopod; mitochondrial genome; Crustacea; Arthropod phylogeny; mitochondrial DNA; Gonodactylus chiragra; Lysiosquillina maculata; Squilla empusa 2 Introduction Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences have been used extensively in phylogenetic analyses to examine relationships among populations or higher taxa. Most of these studies are limited because they use only one or a few genes. More recently however, many complete mitochondrial genomes have been sequenced (Boore, 1999). In particular, a number of phylogenetic analyses using gene order or protein-coding sequences from complete mitochondrial genomes have been conducted to examine relationships within the phylum Arthropoda (e.g. Boore et al., 1998; Garcia-Machado et al., 1999; Wilson et al., 2000; Yamauchi et al., 2002; Nardi et al., 2003).

  • The Evolution of Social Monogamy and Biparental Care in Stomatopod Crustaceans
    The Evolution of Social Monogamy and Biparental Care in Stomatopod Crustaceans By Mary Louisa Wright A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Roy L. Caldwell Professor Eileen Lacey Professor George Roderick Spring 2013 ABSTRACT The Evolution of Social Monogamy and Biparental Care in Stomatopod Crustaceans By Mary Louisa Wright Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology University of California, Berkeley Professor Roy L. Caldwell, Chair Although social monogamy and biparental care have been extensively studied in birds, mammals, and fish, the evolutionary origins and maintenance of these phenomena are not well- understood, particularly in invertebrate taxa. The evolution of social monogamy is of interest because current theory predicts that both males and females will usually gain more fitness from mating with multiple partners. Furthermore, biparental care should only occur when males and females both gain more fitness benefits from providing parental care than from investing time and energy into mate searching. Given these expectations, under what environmental and social conditions will social monogamy and biparental care arise and do the same conditions maintain monogamy and biparental care on an evolutionary time scale? Long-term social monogamy, which occurs when a male and female pair for longer than a single breeding cycle, has been reported in eight genera of Lysiosquilloid stomatopods. Furthermore, the Lysiosquilloidea also contains the only marine crustacean genus (Pullosquilla) in which biparental care has been systematically studied. This dissertation examines the evolutionary maintenance and origins of both biparental care and long-term social monogamy in the Lysiosquilloidea, using experimental manipulations, ecological surveys, and comparative, phylogenetically-based methods.

  • Submarine Rescue Capability and Its Challenges
    X Submarine Rescue Capability and its Challenges 41496_DSTA 4-15#150Q.indd 1 5/6/10 1:08 AM ABSTRACT Providing rescue to the crew of a disabled submarine is of paramount concern to many submarine-operating nations. Various rescue systems are in operation around the world. In 2007, the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) acquired a rescue service through a Public–Private Partnership. With a locally based solution to achieve this time-critical mission, the rescue capability of the RSN has been greatly enhanced.

    Les écrits de scripteurs peu instruits et le français populaire de Haute-Normandie aux 17e et 18e siècles 1. Introduction1 L’absence de sources pour l’étude de l’immédiat phonique (Koch / Oesterreicher 2001, 615) des époques anciennes est à l’origine, depuis les débuts de la philologie romane, de la méconnaissance de ce vaste secteur de la langue. Nous voudrions apporter un complément au sujet de l’étape préalable à une investigation historique de la langue parlée, qui est celle de la sélection des sources. La présente étude repose sur de la documentation écrite, dont l’interprétation souvent délicate a été soulignée maintes fois. Les textes qui serviront d’exemples pour notre propos proviennent des fonds d’archives familiales des Archives départementales de Seine-Maritime et ont été rédigés par des scripteurs peu instruits2. Nous y avons relevé plusieurs particula- rismes, dont cerque m. “cercle” et dessur prép. “sur”, pour lesquels nous proposons ici une analyse détaillée. Ces deux analyses, ainsi que celles du « relief conceptionnel » (Koch / Oesterreicher 2001, 586) des documents, serviront à déterminer lesquels des textes de scripteurs peu instruits, ceux de l’immédiat graphique ou de la distance graphique, sont à même de nous instruire sur la variation diachronique, diatopique et diastratique du français. 2. Le manuscrit d’Anne Cocqueret 2.1. « Anne Cocqueret, famme de Vinsant Cavellier » Anne Cocqueret exerce le métier de couturière à Rouen au 17e siècle. On ne connaît ni la date ni le lieu de sa naissance. Elle savait manifestement écrire, ce qui est loin d’aller de soi pour une artisane de cette époque (Timmermans 1993 : 56-58).

  • Szturomski B., Bohn M.: the STRESS STATE ANALYSIS of RESCUE SEAT AREA of SUBMARINE KOBBEN CLASS
    THE STRESS STATE ANALYSIS OF RESCUE SEAT AREA OF SUBMARINE KOBBEN CLASS DURING RESCUE VEHICLE LANDING Bogdan Szturomski, Marek Bohn NAVAL ACADEMY in Gdynia, Poland Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Department, Institute of Bases Machines Construction ul. Śmidowicza 69, 81-103 Gdynia [email protected], [email protected], Abstract This article includes calculating stamina of seat area construction (stress states) during rescue vehicle type SRC or DSRV docking taking into account the depth of immersion and sea current in CAE program, which are the basis for determining the maximum safe depth for use the emergency system. Lists the documents that contain guidelines for the preparation of the design model using Finite Elements Methods (FEM) [5], reflect the geometry of the object and its discretization, a description of the material, boundary conditions and loads. Posted examples of the results of the stress state in the design of the seat area of submarine Kobben class rescue obtained from simulation FEM for deep 250 m. Keywords: rescue seat area of submarine, DSRV (Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle), SRC (Submarine Rescue Chamber), NSRS (NATO Submarine Rescue System), FEM (Finite Elements Method), CAE (Computer Aided Engineering), Kobben class, NAVSEA (Naval Sea Systems Command). 1. Introduction: The object of the research is a rescue seat area of submarine Kobben class, which is a part of submarine rescue system (Pic. 1.). Rescue seat area enables landing of rescue vehicles and crew evacuation from damaged submarine by dry method. Rescue seat area was inspected and certificated and results from recent years shows that its dimensions and required thickness reached values below limit.
