  • Maximizing Offspring Production While Maintaining Genetic Diversity in Supplemental Breeding Programs of Highly Fecund Managed Species
    Conservation in Practice Maximizing Offspring Production While Maintaining Genetic Diversity in Supplemental Breeding Programs of Highly Fecund Managed Species ANTHONY C. FIUMERA,∗‡ BRADY A. PORTER,∗§ GREG LOONEY,† MARJORIE A. ASMUSSEN,∗ AND JOHN C. AVISE∗ ∗Department of Genetics, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602, U.S.A. †Warm Spring Fish Technology Center, 5308 Spring Street, Warm Springs, GA 31830, U.S.A. Abstract: Supplemental breeding is an intensive population management strategy wherein adults are cap- tured from nature and spawned in controlled settings, and the resulting offspring are later released into the wild. To be effective, supplemental breeding programs require crossing strategies that maximize offspring production while maintaining genetic diversity within each supplemental year class. We used computer simula- tions to assess the efficacy of different mating designs to jointly maximize offspring production and maintain high levels of genetic diversity (as measured by the effective population size) under a variety of biological conditions particularly relevant to species with high fecundity and external fertilization, such as many fishes. We investigated four basic supplemental breeding designs involving either monogamous pairings or complete factorial designs (in which every female is mated to every male and vice versa), each with or without the added stipulation that all breeders contribute equally to the total reproductive output. In general, complete factorial designs that did not equalize parental contributions came closest to the goal of maximizing offspring production while still maintaining relatively large effective population sizes. Next, we estimated the effective population size of 10 different supplemental year classes within the breeding program of the robust redhorse (Moxostoma robustum).

Amyloodinium ocellatum (AO) is the most Amyloodinium ocellatum common and important dinoflagellate parasitizing fish, and is one of the few fish parasites that can infest several European sea bass fish species living within its ecological range. In the present study, A. ocellatum was recorded and collected from Immune response infected European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) during a summer 2017 outbreak in north east Italy. Immune related genes Histological observation of infected ESB gill samples emphasized the presence of round or pear-shaped trophonts anchored to the oro-pharingeal cavity. Molecular analysis for small subunit (SSU) rDNA of A. ocellatum from gill genomic DNA amplified consistently and yielded 248 bp specific amplicon of A. ocellatum, that was also con- firmed using sequencing and NCBI Blast analysis. Histological sections of ESB gill samples were addressed to immunohistochemical procedure for the labelling of ESB igm, inos, tlr2, tlr4, pcna and cytokeratin.

  • Molecular Genetics of Cirrhitoid Fishes (Perciformes: Cirrhitoidea
    Molecular genetics of c·irrhitoid fishes (Perciformes: Cirrhitoidea): phylogeny, taxonomy, biogeography, and stock structure Christopher Paul Burridge BSc(Hons) University of Tasmania Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University of Tasmania October 2000 S1a~tements I declare that this thesis contains no material whicb has been accepted for the award of any otiler degree or diploma in any tertiary institution and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, this thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made in the text. This thesis is to be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. October 2000 Summary The molecular phylogenetic relationships within three of the five cirrhitoid fish families were reconstructed from mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b, cytochrome oxidase I, and D-loop sequences. Analysis of the Cheilodactylidae provided evidence that much taxonomic revision is required. The molecular data suggest that this family should be restricted to the two South African Cheilodactylus, as they are highly divergent from the other cheilodactylids and one member is the type species. The remaining 25 cheilodactylids should be transferred to the Latridae. Nine of the non South African Cheilodactylus can be allocated to three new genera; Goniistius (elevated to generic rank), Zeodrius (resurrected), and Morwong (resurrected), while the placement of three species is uncertain. The three South African Chirodactylus should revert to Palunolepis, as they are distinct from the South American type species Chirodact_vlus variegatus. Acantholatris clusters within Nemadactylus, ar;d the former should be synonymised.

  • Shoot, Catalogue, Eat: Interacting with Nature at a Tasmanian Penal Station Abstract Introduction
    Shoot, Catalogue, Eat: Interacting with Nature at a Tasmanian Penal Station Richard Tuffin and Caitlin Vertigan The authors, 2020 Abstract This paper examines the fascinating – if slightly incongruous – links that the Port Arthur penal station (1830-1877) had to an active and influential globe-spanning network of naturalists, explorers and collectors. Particularly during the first two decades of the station‟s life, Port Arthur‟s denizens – both free and bond alike – partook in acts of collection and rudimentary analysis, driven by a desire to understand the natural world around them. Focusing on the figure of Thomas James Lempriere, an officer at the station between 1833 and 1848, this paper discusses how interactions with the natural world at the edge of Empire influenced – and continues to influence – the scientific world. Introduction This is a paper about science and history. It is particularly about how science – specifically those branches dealing with understanding the natural world – could be carried on in the unlikeliest of places. The pursuit of scientific understanding has taken place over the centuries in a myriad of strange or downright hostile locations: from the pitching deck of a survey ship, to the inhospitable climes of the Arctic or equatorial jungle. In the case of this paper, the pursuit of scientific knowledge took place in an environment purposefully designed by humans to be hostile. One where confinement and coercion was implemented with scientific exactitude, using the tools of wall, palisade, watch clock, iron and lash. It was the strangest of locations in which to find stories of scientific advancement. Yet, the place, for a period of time in the 1830s and 1840s, became inextricably tied to the great globe-spanning quest to unravel the mysteries of the natural world.
