ITRAQ-BASED QUANTITATIVE PROTEOMIC ANALYSIS REVEALS TOXICITY MECHANISMS IN CHLAMYS FARRERI EXPOSED TO OKADAIC ACID

iTRAQ-Based Quantitative Proteomic Analysis Reveals Toxicity Mechanisms in Chlamys farreri Exposed to Okadaic Acid

Okadaic acid (OA), produced by dinoflagellates during harmful algal blooms, is a principal diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxin.This toxin poses a potential threat to bivalves with economic values.To better understand the toxicity mechanism of OA to bivalves, in this study, oxidative stress Connection Hose biomarkers (superoxide dismutase, SOD; cat

Reproductive parameters in the critically endangered Blue-throated Macaw: limits to the recovery of a parrot under intensive management.

Rediscovered in the wild twenty years ago, the breeding biology of wild Blue-throated Macaws remains largely unexplored, yet is essential to its effective conservation and recovery.Here, we analyse reproductive parameters in an intensively managed wild population of Blue-throated Macaws, providing the first data on the breeding biology of this crit
