Estudos ecotoxicológicos com as espécies Argyrodiaptomus furcatus e Notodiaptomus iheringi (Copepoda, Calanoida) . 2011. 312 f. Tese (Doutorado) – Escola de Engenharia de São Carlos, Universidade de São Paulo, São Carlos, 2011. Os Copepoda constituem a maior classe de pequenos crustáceos, com mais de 8.500 espécies descritas. Dentre as cinco ordens de Copepoda de vida livre, as espécies pertencentes à ordem Calanoida apresentam um forte endemismo, com uma restrita distribuição geográfica. Além disso, os Copepoda Calanoida são particularmente sensíveis a contaminantes contidos na coluna de água devido ao seu hábito planctônico. No presente trabalho foram realizados estudos ecotoxicológicos com duas espécies de Copepoda Calanoida, particularmente com as espécies Argyrodiaptomus furcatus Sars, 1901 e Notodiaptomus iheringi Wright, 1935. Estas espécies foram comparadas com relação à sensibilidade e desempenho como organismos-teste na avaliação da qualidade da água em ecossistemas de água doce. Foram testadas e adaptadas metodologias de cultivo em laboratório, e foram estudados os principais aspectos da biologia destes em condições ambientais controladas. Além disso, foram analisados aspectos referentes à dinâmica populacional. A sensibilidade das duas espécies de Calanoida às substâncias de referência sódio, potássio e zinco na forma de cloreto (NaCl, KCl e ZnCl 2, respectivamente), ao dicromato de potássio (K 2Cr 2O7) e ao sulfato de alumínio (Al 2(SO 4)3), aos surfactantes dodecilsulfato de sódio (C 12 H25 NaO 4S) e ácido dodecil benzenosulfonato de sódio (CH 3(CH 2)11 C6H4SO 3Na), foram avaliadas. Além disso, avaliou-se a toxicidade aguda de diferentes amostras ambientais e das toxinas da cianobactéria Microcystis aeruginosa após tratamento por irradiação. Os resultados dos testes ecotoxicológicos foram expressos em concentração efetiva (CE(I)50). Para o cálculo estatístico da CE50 foi utilizado o programa Trimmed Spearman-Karber. Os resultados relativos ao ciclo de vida mostraram que N. iheringi tem um menor tempo de desenvolvimento do que A. furcatus , com tempos de duração do desenvolvimento do ovo determinados pelos métodos indireto e direto. Verificou-se que a espécie de N. iheringi , de menor tamanho, apresentou tempo de desenvolvimento pós-embrionário menor do que a espécie de maior tamanho, A. furcatus .

  • Molecular Species Delimitation and Biogeography of Canadian Marine Planktonic Crustaceans
    Molecular Species Delimitation and Biogeography of Canadian Marine Planktonic Crustaceans by Robert George Young A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Robert George Young, March, 2016 ABSTRACT MOLECULAR SPECIES DELIMITATION AND BIOGEOGRAPHY OF CANADIAN MARINE PLANKTONIC CRUSTACEANS Robert George Young Advisors: University of Guelph, 2016 Dr. Sarah Adamowicz Dr. Cathryn Abbott Zooplankton are a major component of the marine environment in both diversity and biomass and are a crucial source of nutrients for organisms at higher trophic levels. Unfortunately, marine zooplankton biodiversity is not well known because of difficult morphological identifications and lack of taxonomic experts for many groups. In addition, the large taxonomic diversity present in plankton and low sampling coverage pose challenges in obtaining a better understanding of true zooplankton diversity. Molecular identification tools, like DNA barcoding, have been successfully used to identify marine planktonic specimens to a species. However, the behaviour of methods for specimen identification and species delimitation remain untested for taxonomically diverse and widely-distributed marine zooplanktonic groups. Using Canadian marine planktonic crustacean collections, I generated a multi-gene data set including COI-5P and 18S-V4 molecular markers of morphologically-identified Copepoda and Thecostraca (Multicrustacea: Hexanauplia) species. I used this data set to assess generalities in the genetic divergence patterns and to determine if a barcode gap exists separating interspecific and intraspecific molecular divergences, which can reliably delimit specimens into species. I then used this information to evaluate the North Pacific, Arctic, and North Atlantic biogeography of marine Calanoida (Hexanauplia: Copepoda) plankton.

  • Chemical Use in Salmon Aquaculture: a Review of Current Practices and Possible Environmental Effects
    CHEMICAL USE IN SALMON AQUACULTURE: A REVIEW OF CURRENT PRACTICES AND POSSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS Les Burridge1, Judith Weis2, Felipe Cabello3 and Jaime Pizarro4 1Fisheries and Oceans Canada St. Andrews Biological Station St. Andrews, New Brunswick Canada E5B 2H7 2 Department of of Biological Sciences Rutgers University, Newark, New Jersey 07102 3 Department of Microbiology and Immunology, New York Medical College, Valhalla, New York 10595 4Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Santiago de Chile Alameda 3363 Santiago, Chile March 20, 2008 Executive Summary Chemical inputs to the marine environment from aquaculture activities generally fall into two categories: intentional and unintentional inputs. Intentional inputs include pesticides, drugs, antifoulants, anaesthetics and disinfectants. Unintentional inputs include contaminants from fish feeds additives and so-called inert ingredients in pesticide and drug formulations. This report addresses the current status of intentional chemical inputs, regulation and research in the salmon aquaculture industry in Norway, Scotland, Canada and Chile. Research gaps are identified and recommendations presented. Antibiotics Antibiotics in salmon aquaculture, as in other industrial husbandry of food animals including cattle and poultry, are used in the control of infections. A veterinary prescription is required to use these compounds and veterinarians are ethically bound to respond to disease outbreaks in fish under their care. Antibiotics are characterized by low toxicity to vertebrates. Some compounds are persistent in sediments and can therefore affect the microbial community near aquaculture sites. One of the major concerns with use of antibiotics (from any source) is the potential for bacteria to develop resistance to the compounds and for the resistance traits to be manifested in other bacteria including human pathogens.

Euphausiids were caught in locations outside the Ría de Vigo in Galicia, NW Spain, and prevalence of infection was up to 0.1%. The parasite was identi- fied by morphological characters. Cystacanths were 8.09 ± 2.25 mm total length (mean ± SD) and had proboscises that consisted of 22 to 24 longitudinal rows of hooks, each of which had 8 or 9 hooks per row including 2 or 3 rootless ones in the proboscis base and 1 field of small hooks in the prebulbar part. Phylogenetic analyses of 18S rDNA and cytocrome c oxidase subunit I revealed a close relationship with other taxa of the family Polymorphidae (Meyer, 1931). The results extend northwards ot the known distribution of B. balaenae. Taxonomic affiliation of parasites and trophic ecology in the sampling area suggest that N. couchii is the intermediate host for B.

It can also be used to construct taxonomic trees, although it is not yet clear to what extent this barcode-based taxonomy reflects more traditional morphological or molecular taxonomy. Collections of zooplankton were made using conventional plankton nets in Newport Bay and the Pacific Ocean near Newport Beach, California (Lat. 33.628342, Long. -117.927933) between May 2013 and January 2020, and individual crustacean specimens were documented by videomicroscopy. Adult crustaceans were collected from solid substrates in the same areas. Specimens were preserved in ethanol and sent to the Canadian Centre for DNA Barcoding at the University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada for sequencing of the COI DNA barcode. From 1042 specimens, 544 COI sequences were obtained falling into 199 Barcode Identification Numbers (BINs), of which 76 correspond to recognized species. The results show the utility of DNA barcoding for matching life-cycle stages as well as for documenting the diversity of this group of organisms.
