The endangered Tunbridge buttercup (Ranunculus prasinus): Ecology,conservation status and introduction to the Township Lagoon Nature Reserve,Tasmania

Abstract Ranunculus prasinus is a mat-forming species of the marginal herbfields and tussock grasslands of brackish wetlands. It is only known from four wetlands, all on private land, in the driest part of Tasmania. The species has been successfully introduced from divisions from three of the populations into a secure reserve with similar vegetation to that of the natural populations. This is considered to be desirable and morally sound in that it increases the chances of survival of native biological diversity as a whole. However, ex situ measures and a gaining of security for natural populations would also be prudent.

The genetic variability of the red king crab, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Paralithodes camtschatica</Emphasis> (Tilesius, 1815) (Anomura,Lithodidae) introduced into the Barents Sea compared with samples from the Bering Sea and Kamchatka region using eleven microsatellite loci

The intentional introduction of red king crab, Paralithodes camtschatica (Tilesius, 1815) in the Barents Sea represent one of a few successful cases and one that now supports a commercial fishery. Introductions of alien species into new environments are often associated with genetic bottlenecks, which cause a reduction in the genetic variation, and this could be important for the spreading potential of the species in the Atlantic Ocean. Red king crab samples collected in the Varangerfjord located on the Barents Sea (northern Norway) were compared with reference crab samples collected from the Bering Sea and Kamchatka regions in the Pacific Ocean. All samples were screened for eleven microsatellite loci, based on the development of species-specific primers. The observed number of alleles per locus was similar, and no reduction in genetic variation, including gene diversity and allelic richness, was detected between the Varangerfjord sample and the reference sample from Okhotsk Sea near Kamchatka, indicating no genetic bottlenecking at least for the microsatellite loci investigated. The same results were found in comparison with the sample from Bering Sea. The level of genetic differentiation among the samples, measured as overall F _ST across all loci, was relatively low (0.0238) with a range of 0.0035–0.1000 for the various loci investigated. The largest pairwise F _ST values were found between the Bering Sea and Varangerfjord/Barents Sea samples, with a value of 0.0194 across all loci tested. The lowest value (0.0101) was found between the Varangerfjord and Kamchatka samples. Genetic differentiation based on exact tests on allele frequencies revealed highly significant differences between all pairwise comparisons. The high level of genetic variation found in the Varangerfjord/Barents Sea sample could be of significance with respect to further spreading of the species to other regions in the North Atlantic Ocean.     

Population heterogeneity of plasmid-bearing and plasmid-freeBacillus subtilis strains under different environmental conditions

The population heterogeneity of recombinant and plasmid-freeBacillus subtilis strains introduced into aquatic microcosms was studied. After introduction, the population of the plasmid-free strainB. subtilis 2335 in microcosms has long been represented by both vegetative cells and spores, whereas, already ten days after introduction, the population of the recombinant strainB. subtilis 2335/105 (Km^rInf⁺) was represented only by spores. The number of plasmid copies in the spore isolates of the recombinant strain was the same as before introduction, but the plasmid abundance in the vegetative isolates of this strain decreased. The isolates ofB. subtilis 2335/105 obtained from microcosms and the variants of this strain obtained by ten successive subcultures on M9 and 0. I× M9 media with and without kanamycin (Km) differed in the number of plasmid copies, Km resistance, and maximum biomass yield during batch cultivation. Irrespective of the presence of Km, more than 50% of the variants subcultured on M9 medium showed reduced plasmid abundance. At the same time, about 70% of the variants subcultured on 0.1 × M9 medium with Km and 90% of the variants subcultured on the same medium without Km retained the initial number of plasmid copies. The variants subcultured on media with Km retained the initial biomass level. In more than 70% of the variants isolated from media without Km, the biomass yield increased.
