SURVIVAL OF TOXOPLASMA GONDII OOCYSTS IN EASTERN OYSTERS (CRASSOSTREA VIRGINICA) [PDF]

Journal of Parasitology, 2004
Toxoplasma gondii has recently been recognized to be widely prevalent in the marine environment. It has previously been determined that Eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica) can remove sporulated T. gondii oocysts from seawater and that oocysts retain their infectivity for mice. This study examined the long-term survival of T.

The Crassostrea coquina bed in the Qeshm Geopark (Southern Iran): Paleontology, Paleoecology and Geotourism Potential

Geoconservation Research
The Crassostrea coquina bed on Qeshm Island is named for its high abundance of Crassostrea virginica fossils. Field surveys and photographic documentation from two key locations show that there are three lithostratigraphic units deposited in deltaic or ...

Bacterial community profiles and Vibrio parahaemolyticus abundance in individual oysters and their association with estuarine ecology [PDF]

, 2017
Oysters naturally harbor the human gastric pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus, but the nature of this association is unknown. Because microbial interactions could influence the accumulation of V. parahaemolyticus in oysters, we investigated the composition

Impacts of the combined exposure to seawater acidification and arsenic on the proteome of Crassostrea angulata and Crassostrea gigas [PDF]

, 2018
Proteomic analysis was performed to compare the effects of Arsenic (As), seawater acidification (Low pH) and the combination of both stressors (Low pH + As) on Crassostrea angulata and Crassostrea gigas juveniles in the context of global environmental ...

Synergistic effects of temperature and salinity on the gene expression and physiology of Crassostrea virginica.

Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2019
The eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, forms reefs that provide critical services to the surrounding ecosystem. These reefs are at risk from climate change, in part because altered rainfall patterns may amplify local fluctuations in salinity ...

Genetic signature analysis of Perkinsus marinus in Mexico suggests possible translocation from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific coast of Mexico

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Background The protozoan Perkinsus marinus (Mackin, Owen & Collier) Levine, 1978 causes perkinsosis in the American oyster Crassostrea virginica Gmelin, 1791. This pathogen is present in cultured C. virginica from the Gulf of Mexico and has been reported

Texas coastal zone biotopes : an ecography : interim report for the Bay and Estuary Management Program (CRMP) [PDF]

, 1972
November 1972Because esthetics, biological environment and physiography are so interrelated and have changeable meanings in various environments, we are obligated to think of the environment in terms of biological change, as environmental protection is ...
