Mackerels of the genus Scomber are commercially important species, but their taxonomic status is still controversial. Although previous phylogenetic data support the recognition of Atlantic Scomber colias and Pacific Scomber japonicus as separate species, it is only based on the analysis of partial mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences. In an attempt to shed light on this relevant issue, we have determined the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of S. colias, S. japonicus, and Scomber australasicus. The total length of the mitogenomes was 16,568 bp for S. colias and 16,570 bp for both S. japonicus and S. australasicus. All mitogenomes had a gene content (13 protein-coding, 2 rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs) and organization similar to that observed in Scomber scombrus and most other vertebrates. The major noncoding region (control region) ranged between 865 and 866 bp in length and showed the typical conserved blocks. Phylogenetic analyses revealed a monophyletic origin of Scomber species with regard to other scombrid fish. The major finding of this study is that S. colias and S. japonicus were significantly grouped in distinct lineages within Scomber cluster, which phylogenetically constitutes evidence that they may be considered as separate species. Additionally, molecular data here presented provide a useful tool for evolutionary as well as population genetic studies. 相似文献

The levels of mercury and lead in three major species of imported frozen fish—Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus), sardine (Sardinella sindesis), and scumbera (Scumbria spp)—were determined and potential health hazard resulting from their ingestion by Nigerians was assessed. Sample digestion was carried out as prescribed in the Food and Agricultural Organisation/Swedish International Development Agency wet digestion method. Quantitation of the Hg and Pb content of the digested samples and blanks was carried out spectrophotometrically using thiozone as the ligand. The ranges of level of Hg in the samples in mg/Kg were: 0.03–0.42 for Scomber scombrus and 0.03–0.37 and 0.020–0.31 for Scumbria and Sardinella sindesis, respectively. Also, Pb had value ranges in mg/Kg of 0.20–0.28, 0.24–0.32, and 0.15–0.32 in Scomber scombrus, Scumbria, and Sardinella sindesis, respectively. Potential health hazard assessment that was carried out showed no risk status for children and adults consuming Sardinella sindesis and scumbera and adults consuming Scomber scombrus (HQ < 1). The results further showed a risk (HQ = 1.022 and THI = 1.036) for children taking Scomber scombrus. 相似文献

Summary
Grubea australis n. sp. (family Mazocraeidae, subfamily Grubeinae) from the gills of the mackerel Scomber australasicus in New South Wales, Australia, is described. It differs from the only other species of the genus recognized in its relatively
much smaller opisthaptor, which is oblique to the longitudinal axis of the body proper and has a reduced muscular adhesion
fold. Grubea cochlear from Scomber scombrus in the Mediterranean and from S. japonicus on the coast of S?o Paulo State, Brazil, is re-described; its clamps may be on the right or left side of the opisthaptor.
Grubea pneumatophori is synonymized with G. cochlear. ac]19851217 相似文献

The structural organization of the nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) of Humulus lupulus, H. japonicus and Cannabis sativa was determined by restriction site mapping. A high degree of DNA sequence similarity was evident in the coding regions of
the rDNA repeats of the taxa and supports the placement of Cannabis and Humulus in one family, Cannabaceae. However, the presence of a BstEII site, an additional SacI site, absence of the SpeI site and positional differences of the SspI sites in the 25 S gene distinguished H. japonicus from H. lupulus. Humulus lupulus has an additional EcoRV site in the IGS region. A XhoI site in the 18S region of C. sativa distinguishes it from the two hop species. The diagnostic differences in the IGS of C. sativa include the EcoRI, HindIII and XhoI sites. These sites were not detected in the IGS of the two hop species. 相似文献

A rapid molecular approach was developed for the initial identification of Lactobacillus acidophilus strains which are difficult to identify using a single biochemical test. The 16S–23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions and flanking 23S rRNA genes of 19 strains of lactobacilli were amplified and the nucleotide sequences and restriction site polymorphisms were analyzed. AluI was the most useful of the restriction enzymes analyzed and produced reproducible digestion profiles in the L. helveticus, L. plantarum, and L. casei groups, as well as in L. acidophilus. This restriction fragment length polymorphism method may be useful for the identification of L. acidophilus strains in dairy products. 相似文献

Summary Bacteria from recreational waters collected from two Lake Erie beaches in Dunkirk, New York were plated onto m Endo LES media.
The 16S rRNA gene was then amplified from coliform and non-coliform bacteria using the polymerase chain reaction. The PCR
products were characterized by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. A total of 8 RFLP groups were identified
from the analysis of 920 samples and selected PCR products from each group were sequenced. The DNA sequence analysis indicated
that more than half of the bacteria identified as coliforms on the m Endo plates belonged to the genus Aeromonas from the family Aeromonadaceae. Most of the remaining coliforms were from the Enterobacteriaceae. The data indicate that m Endo agar plates allow the growth of non-coliform bacteria, especially Aeromonas species. 相似文献

Aphelinus albipodus Hayat and Fatima is a potential biological control agent of the soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, which is a newly introduced soybean pest in the United States. We compared the reproductive compatibility and molecular genetic variation between two geographic strains of A. albipodus. One strain was collected from soybean aphids in Japan and the other recovered from Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko), in the western U.S., populations of which were established with parasitoids imported from Eurasia. We present results of crossing experiments between the two strains, genetic differences based on RAPD-PCR markers, rDNA ITS1 and ITS2 gene sequences, and presence of Wolbachia in the two strains using PCR amplification of the wsp gene. We found no reduction in the production of females in reciprocal crosses between strains, but a significant reduction in fecundity when F1 females stemming from one of the reciprocal crosses were backcrossed to males from either source. The two strains differed by 3.4% in the rDNA ITS1 sequence and by presence/absence of one RAPD-PCR marker from a total of 20 RAPD primers screened, but their rDNA ITS2 sequences were identical. We used restriction enzyme analysis to separate the strains by differential digestion of the ITS1 PCR product. Wolbachia was present in 100% of males and females of both strains of A. albipodus. 相似文献

Thelazia gulosa, Thelazia rhodesi and Thelazia skrjabini are nematodes transmitted by some species of Musca (Diptera: Muscidae) which cause ocular infestations in bovines. Differences in the rDNA of these species were determined by a PCR using different sets of relatively conserved oligonucleotide primers. PCR on the first internal transcribed spacer (ITS-1) revealed differences in size in Thelazia species (437 bp for T. gulosa, 370 bp for T. rhodesi and 506 bp for T. skrjabini) while the DNA control of Musca spp. was not amplified. The ITS-1 amplicons of the three species were sequenced and then analysed. The GC contents ranged from 26 to 36% and the level of differences in the nucleotide sequences of ITS-1 was lower between T. skrjabini and T. gulosa (39%) than the latter and T. rhodesi (49–56%). Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of ITS-1 amplicons was also carried out and the restriction profiles compared. Clear genetic differences among the three Thelazia examined were demonstrated by using the enzymes HpaII, CpoI and SspI. This PCR–RFLP for the delineation of T. gulosa, T. rhodesi and T. skrjabini offers prospects as a molecular epidemiological tool to study parasite transmission patterns and prevalence. 相似文献

Most stoneflies oviposit several times during their adult stage. In this study, the relations among oviposition frequency, the number of eggs per egg mass, and body size were examined in the chloroperlid stonefly Sweltsa sp. and two perlodid stoneflies, Isoperla aizuana and Stavsolus japonicus. It was found that larger individuals tended to oviposit more frequently than smaller ones, but the relation was significant only in Isoperla aizuana. In Sweltsa sp. and Isoperla aizuana, the number of eggs per egg mass was higher for the less-frequently ovipositing individuals than for those ovipositing more frequently, and the number of eggs per egg mass decreased with successive oviposition events. Stavsolus japonicus showed the same tendency but it was not statistically significant. 相似文献

Identification of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Ganoderma</Emphasis>, the causal agent of basal stem rot disease in oil palm using a molecular method 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
From comparison of the alignments of the internally transcribed spacers (ITS) of ribosomal DNA from Ganoderma associated with oil palm basal stem rot (BSR) and other Ganoderma species, two specific primer pairs were selected to provide a specific DNA amplification of pathogenic Ganoderma in oil palm. Each primer pair produced a single PCR product of about 450 bp (for primer pair IT1–IT2) and 334 bp (for primer pair IT1–IT3) when oil palm Ganoderma DNA was used. No PCR amplification product was observed when other Ganoderma species DNA was used in PCR amplification with these primer pairs. Three specific restriction enzyme sites were identified in the ITS and intergenic spacer (IGS1) regions. The restriction enzymes MluI, SacI and HinfI were used to digest the ITS-PCR product and restriction enzymes TfiI, ScaI and HincII were used to digest the IGS1-PCR product. Of the three restriction enzymes used in each rDNA region, MluI specifically digested the ITS regions, and TfiI specifically digested the IGS1 region of oil palm Ganoderma. Analysis of the published ITS nucleotide sequences of 31 Ganoderma species showed that the MluI restriction site was not present in other Ganoderma species. The use of both specific primers and restriction enzyme analysis can be applied as a standard protocol to identify pathogenic Ganoderma in oil palm. In this study, the use of specific primers and PCR-RFLP analyses of the rDNA gave consistent results for the characterisation of pathogenic Ganoderma, and indicated that Ganoderma strains associated with BSR disease in oil palms belong to a single species. 相似文献

The stock abundance of the chub mackerel Scomber japonicus - a very important species for fisheries, particularly in Japan - in the Pacific Ocean off Japan has remained at a low level. For studying the population genetics of the chub mackerel, we isolated nine polymorphic microsatellite loci (12-31 alleles/locus; expected heterozygosity, 0.762-0.983) from this species. Cross-species amplification indicated that eight of the nine microsatellite loci in the blue mackerel S. australasicus were polymorphic and functional. 相似文献

By crossing Brachionus plicatilis s.s. NH1L strain and German strain, we obtained two types of hybrids, NH1L female × German male designated as NXG and German
female × NH1L male designated as GXN. To confirm the crossing of the two hybrid strains at the genetic level, random amplified
polymorphic DNA polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) analysis using 10 kinds of primers (10 and 12 mers) was carried out.
Some amplified DNA fragments from RAPD of the hybrid strain showed mixed patterns of both parental strains, thus confirming
that both hybrids were crossbreeds of the NH1L and German strains. Using these hybrids, we investigated the mode of mitochondrial
inheritance in B. plicatilis. Full-length mtDNA of the four strains was amplified by PCR, and digested with restriction enzymes to obtain restriction
fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns. Both hybrid strains had the same RFLP patterns as their female parents. This
result shows that mitochondrial inheritance in rotifers is maternal.

Population genetic structures of the mackerel (Scomber scombrus) and chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) were studied in the Mediterranean Sea. Fragments of 272 bp (S. scomber) and 387 bp (S. japonicus) of the 5'-end of the mitochondrial control region were sequenced from spawning individuals collected off the coasts of Greece, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. High levels of mitochondrial control region haplotypic diversity (> 0.98) were found for both Scomber species. Nucleotide diversity was higher in the mackerel (0.022) than in the chub mackerel (0.017). Global F(ST) values were also higher and significant in the mackerel (0.024, P < 0.0001) as opposed to the chub mackerel (0.003, P > 0.05). Molecular variance analyses showed differential genetic structuring for these two closely related species. There is extensive gene flow between Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean populations of chub mackerel, which are organized into a larger panmictic unit. In contrast, Mediterranean Sea populations of mackerel show some degree of genetic differentiation and are structured along an east-west axis. The analysed eastern Mediterranean Sea mackerel populations (Greece, Italy) are clearly separated from that of the western Mediterranean Sea (Barcelona), which forms a panmictic unit with eastern Atlantic Ocean populations. The genetic structures of both species showed asymmetric migration patterns and indicated population expansion. 相似文献

High toxicity of the novel bloom-forming species Chattonella ovata (Raphidophyceae) to cultured fish
A toxicological study of an axenic cell line of novel species Chattonella ovata Y. Hara et Chihara (Raphidophyceae) revealed that cultured species of sea bream (Pagrus major), horse mackerel (Trachurus japonicus), and yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata) were killed by 4.1–6.8 × 103, 5.4 × 103, and 2.8 × 103 cells/mL, respectively. The sensitivity of the gill lamellae to C. ovata differed among the fish species tested. This finding revealed that C. ovata was highly toxic to the cultured fish. Histological examination showed that edema and hyperplasia of the secondary gill lamellae of red sea bream and horse mackerel occurred when exposed to, or killed by C. ovata, whereas severe damage in the gill lamellae was not observed in yellowtail. Chattonella produced high amounts of superoxide anion radicals and hydrogen peroxide, possibly responsible for the fish death observed. Based on the results of this study and occurrence of a red tide by this organism in China in 2001, we consider this organism to be one of the harmful algae in coastal waters. This is the first report demonstrating that C. ovata is highly toxic to fish, and that it produces superoxide and hydrogen peroxide. 相似文献

Mackerel from the northern indian ocean and the red sea arescomber australasicus, notscomber japonicus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The population ofScomber from the Red Sea and northern Indian Ocean (gulfs of Aden and Oman) is identified asS. australasicus rather thanS. japonicus based on having 30–33 vs. 26–29 interneural bones under the first and second dorsal fins and the combination of interneural
bone counts of 16–20 under the first dorsal fin (vs. 13–16) and first dorsal fin spine counts of 10–13 (vs. 9–10). These are
the best morphological characters to distinguish these two species. This change in identification constitutes a major range
extension forS. australasicus which was thought to be restricted to the Pacific Ocean and the southeastern Indian Ocean around Western Australia. 相似文献

Feeding preferences of Celtic Sea fishes were investigated using a database of stomach content records, collected between 1977 and 1994. The diet of cod Gadus morhua, hake Merluccius merluccius, megrim Lepidorhombus whiffiagonis, whiting Merlangius merlangus and saithe Pollachius virens changed markedly as the animals grew larger, and although large predators generally chose larger bodied prey, the variability of prey sizes consumed also increased. Large predators continued to select small, low value, benthic prey (e.g. Callionymus spp. and Trisopterus spp.) which were easier to catch, rather than larger, more energy lucrative pelagic prey (e.g. mackerel Scomber scombrus), even though these pelagic prey‐fishes were nearly always available and were often very abundant. Stock estimates of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea and U.K. groundfish survey catches were used as indices of prey abundance. Blue‐whiting Micromesistius poutassou and other small pelagic fishes (Argentina spp. and clupeoids) were identified as being particularly important, and were consumed by some predators more often than would be expected given the abundance of these prey in the environment. There was no evidence for density‐dependent feeding by predators on mackerel and only hake exhibited density‐dependent feeding on horse‐mackerel. Hake, cod and megrim consumed more blue‐whiting when this prey was at higher abundance in the environment. In choosing what prey to consume, predators must balance costs and benefits, considering the quality of prey and the energy expended during search, capture and handling. 相似文献
