Saprolegnia infections of salmonid fish [PDF]
This paper deals firstly with the identification and characteristics of fungal pathogens that colonize salmonids and then considers the relative importance of the condition of the host fish and the environmental factors which may influence the ...

ABSTRACT Aim The emergence of the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) in South America has been attributed to multiple introductions and subsequent spread in a bidirectional latitudinal wave along the primary Andean cordilleras. This is supported for Ecuador by anecdotal evidence of declines in Bd‐susceptible genera such as Telmatobius ...

Abstract The southern bull kelp Durvillaea potatorum is a key habitat‐forming macroalga in southeastern Australia and has been identified as a species of interest for sustainable seaweed aquaculture. However, the species is threatened by rising ocean temperatures and other anthropogenic factors. Assessing the thermal limits across different life stages

Repeated Zoospore Emergence in Dictyuchus [PDF]
1. In the characteristics of its non-sexual reproduction the fungus which is the subject of this paper shows itself to be a member of the genus Dictyuchus. No sexual reproduction was observed, however; hence it cannot be assigned to any of the recognized species. 2.

ABSTRACT In our rapidly changing world, evolution is likely to play an important role in facilitating the resilience of wildlife populations. The Sierra Nevada yellow‐legged frog (Rana sierrae) provides a rare example of recovery following severe declines caused by the amphibian chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis).

ABSTRACT Oomycete pathogens secrete hundreds of RXLR effectors into plant cells to modulate host immunity by targeting diverse plant proteins. Here, we report that the Peronophythora litchii RXLR effector PlAvh133 acts as a virulence factor and targets the litchi glycolate oxidase (GLO) LcGLO1, a key enzyme in photorespiration, thereby suppressing ...

SUMMARY Assessing the potential for macroalgae to function as a carbon sink (blue carbon) and nitrogen (N) assimilation is under intensive investigation. The content of elemental carbon (C) and N in macroalgae is the best indicator of their potential; however, with respect to the thallus, C and N content varies in space and time.

SUMMARY Kelp forests are threatened by rising ocean temperatures. However, the effects of warming on early life stage interactions among co‐occurring kelp species, particularly competitive dynamics and reproductive timing, remain poorly understood. This study investigates the effects of temperature on embryonic sporophyte competitive interactions and ...
