‘degraded’ rna profiles in arthropoda and beyond
(PeerJ, 2015-12-01)The requirement for high quality/non-degraded RNA is essential for an array of molecular biology analyses. When analysing the integrity of rRNA from the barnacle Lepas anatifera (Phylum Arthropoda, Subphylum Crustacea), ... -
Dna barcoding and molecular systematics of the benthic and demersal organisms of the ceamarc survey
(Elsevier BV, 2011-08-01)The Dumont d'Urville Sea (East Antarctic region) has been less investigated for DNA barcoding and molecular taxonomy than other parts of the Southern Ocean, such as the Ross Sea and the Antarctic Peninsula. The Collaborative ... -
Do single and multiple behavior change interventions contain different behavior change techniques? a comparison of interventions targeting physical activity in obese populations.
(American Psychological Association (APA), 2015-09-01)Objective: Interventions to increase physical activity (PA) can target this behavior alone or as part of multiple health behavior change (MHBC) interventions. To date, little is known about the content of MHBC interventions ... -
Genetic diversity of the fish pathogen aeromonas salmonicida demonstrated by random amplified polymorphic dna and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analyses
(Inter-Research Science Center, 2000-01-01)The current taxonomy of Aeromonas salmonicida includes 4 subspecies. A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida is associated with salmonid furunculosis, and A. salmonicida subsp, achromogenes, A. salmonicida subsp. masoucida, and ... -
Morphological and molecular characterization of the small armoured dinoflagellateheterocapsa minima(peridiniales, dinophyceae)
(Informa UK Limited, 2014-10-02)The dinophycean genus Heterocapsa is of considerable interest as it contains a number of bloom-forming and/or harmful species. Fine structure of organic body scales is regarded as the most important morphological feature ... -
Mycosphere essay 11: fungi of pycnoporus: morphological and molecular identification, worldwide distribution and biotechnological potential
(Mushroom Research Foundation, 2016-01-01)Fungi of the Pycnoporus are efficient degraders of lignocellulosic materials, so they are classified as white-rot fungi. A distinctive feature is its color ranging from orange to bright red, attributed to cinnabarin, ... -
Phylotastic! making tree-of-life knowledge accessible, reusable and convenient
(Springer Nature, 2013-01-01)Background: Scientists rarely reuse expert knowledge of phylogeny, in spite of years of effort to assemble a great "Tree of Life" (ToL). A notable exception involves the use of Phylomatic, which provides ... -
