COCCIDIOSIS IN THE GREEN TURTLE IN MARICULTURE (Chelonia mydas)
Proceedings of the annual meeting - World Mariculture Society, 1974ABSTRACTAn epidemic of disease in recently hatched green turtles (Chelonia mydas) was found to be associated with a new coccidial intestinal parasite. The disease and associated mortality appeared in young turtles approximately 30 days after hatching, and ran a 60 day course through the stock hatchlings at the farm.

Journal of Steroid Biochemistry, 1981
Abstract The metabolism of testosterone and progesterone was studied in the liver of the sea turtle. Chelonia mydas mydas . Liver homogenate preparations (50 mg/50 ml) from the male turtle were incubated at 25°C for 4 h with either [4- 14 C]-testosterone (I) of [4- 14C ]-progesterone (II) in a medium supplemented with a NADPH-generating system ...

Hapalotrema (Digenea: Spirorchidae) in the Green Turtle (Chelonia Mydas) in Australia
The Journal of Parasitology, 1998Hapalotrema mehrai Rao, 1976 and Hapalotrema postorchis Rao, 1976 (Digenea: Spirorchidae) are redescribed from the heart and pulmonary arteries of the green turtle, Chelonia mydas, from Moreton Bay in south-eastern Queensland. Hapalotrema pambanensis Gupta and Mehrotra, 1981 from C. mydas in India is made a synonym of H. mehrai.

Chelonid Alphaherpesvirus 5 DNA in Fibropapillomatosis-Affected Chelonia mydas
EcoHealth, 2019Fibropapillomatosis is a panzootic and chronic disease among Chelonia mydas-usually associated with anthropogenic impacts. This study contributes towards understanding fibropapillomatosis implications for C. mydas populations as a reflector of environmental quality, via prevalence and histological, molecular and blood analyses at a World Heritage site ...

Green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) live in tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide and come onto land only to lay their eggs. This species is endangered with extinction due to a variety of causes that include consumption of their eggs by humans and other animals, loss of beach habitat, and drowning in fishing nets.

Regional endothermy in the sea turtle, Chelonia mydas
Journal of Thermal Biology, 1982Abstract 1. 1.|The green turtle, Chelonia mydas , exhibits a unique combination of thermoregulatory adaptations. Temperature data obtained by mutlichannel telemetry indicate that it is a regional endotherm. 2. 2.|A turtle swimming vigorously had a body temperature (pectoral region) of 37.1°C in water at 29.1°C.

Presence of a neurophysin-like precursor in the green turtle (Chelonia mydas)
Journal of Endocrinology, 1984ABSTRACT A glycoprotein of neurohypophysial origin was found to have cofractionated with FSH prepared from pituitary glands of the green turtle, Chelonia mydas. Antiserum raised against this preparation contained high antibody titres and affinity for the neurohypophysial component and allowed development of a specific radioimmunoassay to ...

Identification of CD3+ T lymphocytes in the green turtle Chelonia mydas
Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2009To understand the role of the immune system with respect to disease in reptiles, there is the need to develop tools to assess the host's immune response. An important tool is the development of molecular markers to identify immune cells, and these are limited for reptiles.

Pathologies of the digestive system caused by marine debris in Chelonia mydas
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2017The growth of human population and deficient pollution control measures pose significant challenge to the environment. Despite conservation efforts, all sea turtle species are at some risk of extinction. The present study investigated the effect of marine debris on the gastrointestinal tract of green turtles in southeastern Brazil.

Pathology of Oropharyngeal Fibropapillomatosis in Green TurtlesChelonia mydas
Journal of Aquatic Animal Health, 2002Complete gross and histopathologic examinations of the oral cavity, tongue, pharynx, larynx, and glottis were performed in five Hawaiian green turtles Chelonia mydas with fibropapillomatosis. These examinations demonstrated that the oropharyngeal fibropapillomas were similar to characteristic external fibropapillomas previously described for green ...
