The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Consequences for lotic ecosystems of invasion by signal crayfish

, 2012
PhDNon-native invasive species are major drivers of biodiversity loss and ecosystemlevel modification. The signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) is a highly successful invasive species and demonstrates traits often seen in keystone species ...

Dimensions of dace dynamics: temporal variation in abundance and survival of an imperiled desert fish guide habitat restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Desert fishes are vulnerable to anthropogenic environmental alterations that degrade habitat and reduce water availability, but these same fishes benefit from restoration actions that reverse the causes of decline. Ash Meadows speckled dace (Rhinichthys osculus nevadensis) is a federally endangered minnow endemic to the Mojave ...

The signal crayfish is vulnerable to both the As and the PsI-isolates of the crayfish plague

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2014
The carrier status and possible elevated tolerance of the signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) against the crayfish plague disease agent (Aphanomyces astaci) has been speculated for several decades.

Blue plaque review series: Thomas Graham Brown: Before his time

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Thomas Graham Brown made a seminal discovery, published in 1911 while he was a Carnegie Fellow in the University of Liverpool laboratory of Nobel Prize winner Charles S. Sherrington. Working in cats, he showed that rhythmic ‘voluntary’ behaviour, such as stepping and, by inference, walking, does not result from a chain of reflex events, but ...

East European crayfish stocks at risk: arrival of non-indigenous crayfish species

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2016
An increasing number of non-indigenous crayfish species (NICS) of apparently pet trade origin have become established particularly in Europe. Especially alarming are recent confirmation of two distantly separated marbled crayfish Procambarus fallax f ...

Maturation of spinal motor control through developmental changes in ion currents

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Ion channels of spinal neurons have been shown to change during development in a wide range of species. These changes occur at specific stages of development. An important developmental process is the maturation of motor control by which the body acquires new movements or refines movements already present.

Introduction of redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus (von Martens) to Lake Kununurra, Ord River, Western Australia: Prospects for a 'yabby' in the Kimberley

, 2004
The recent introduction of redclaw crayfish for aquaculture to the Ord River region of Western Australia has been followed by the detection of a ‘wild’ population in Lake Kununurra. A gut survey of the lake’s fish fauna was used to estimate the degree of
