Molecular Evolution Of Numt, A Recent Transfer And Tandem Amplification Of Mitochondrial Dna Into The Nuclear Genome Of The Domestic Cat (Felis Catus), Jose V. Lopez Apr 1995

Molecular Evolution Of Numt, A Recent Transfer And Tandem Amplification Of Mitochondrial Dna Into The Nuclear Genome Of The Domestic Cat (Felis Catus), Jose V. Lopez

Oceanography Faculty Theses and Dissertations

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are functional cytoplasmic chromosomes, tracing origins to a symbiotic infection of eukaryotic cells by bacterial progenitors. As prescribed by the Serial Endosymbiosis Theory, symbionts have gradually transferred their genes to the nuclear genome that enable functional interaction. In this dissertation, a 7.9 kb transposition of a typically 17.0 kb mitochondrial genome to a specific chromosomal position in the domestic cat is reported. The integrated mtDNA has amplified about 38-76 times and now occurs as a "macrosatellite"-like tandem repeat with multiple length alleles resolved by pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) segregating in cat populations. To examine the tempo …

Port Everglades Macroinvertebrate Monitoring: Monitoring Of Benthic Macroinvertebrate Assemblages At The Southport Turning Basin And Adjacent Areas Of John U. Lloyd State Recreation Area: August 1994 [Interim Report], Charles G. Messing, Richard E. Dodge

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Reports

This report documents the August 1994 monitoring of benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages in the Port Everglades Southport turning basin vicinity and adjacent areas of John U. Lloyd State Recreation Area. This is the seventh monitoring effort of the series carried out by Nova Southeastern University Oceanographic Center. Grab samples were taken chiefly during the first two weeks of August. Hand collections and most crab survey stations were delayed until the first half of September (with three crab stations taken on 5 October). This is an interim report. Nemertine and annelid worms and a few groups of crustaceans have not yet been …


Tissue Damage In Scleractinian And Alcyonacean Corals Due To Experimental Exposure To Sedimentation, Bernhard Riegl, Jonathan P. Bloomer Jan 1995

Tissue Damage In Scleractinian And Alcyonacean Corals Due To Experimental Exposure To Sedimentation, Bernhard Riegl, Jonathan P. Bloomer

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches, Lectures

Four South African scleractinian corals (Favia favus, Favites pentagona, Platygyra daedalea and Gyrosmilia interrupta) and four alcyonacean corals (Lobophytum depressum, Lobophytum venustum, Sinularia dura and Sinularia leptoclados) were experimentally exposed to high sedimentation conditions in the laboratory during a period of six weeks. Experimental sedimentation corresponded to the highest measured sedimentation levels on South African coral reefs, being 200 mg cm-2h-l. Corals were monitored for tissue necroses and bleaching during the course of the experiment and histological sections were prepared after the termination of the experiment. During the experiment, tissue necroses appeared earlier and more frequently in alcyonacea than in …

International Legal Sources And Global Environmental Crises: The Inadequacy Of Principles, Treaties, And Custom, Krista Singleton-Cambage Jan 1995

International Legal Sources And Global Environmental Crises: The Inadequacy Of Principles, Treaties, And Custom, Krista Singleton-Cambage

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

The deterioration of the earth's physical environment presently represents a phenomenon which international society has never faced before. The current legal and political approach to global environmental crises appears largely inadequate as an effective response to this deterioration. International law, due to its very foundations, is unable to cope with global environmental degradation as it does not provide a clear and compelling direction for states to work collectively toward a common goal.

1995 Nsu Fact Book, Nova Southeastern University

NSU Fact Book

This third edition of the University's Fact Book represents the first University-wide data and information resource to encompass all academic units and support components of the newly formed Nova Southeastern University. While the second edition, published in March 1994, presented some preliminary data regarding the Health Professions Division, integration of the separate data bases maintained by the former Nova University and Southeastern University of the Health Sciences was still in the planning and early implementation stages. Since then, the University has made significant headway in achieving an operational merger of central service and support units, facilitating data compilation and analysis …

Is Coral Community Structure Linked To Damage Susceptibility? A Case Study From South Africa, Bernhard Riegl, Peter A. Cook Jan 1995

Is Coral Community Structure Linked To Damage Susceptibility? A Case Study From South Africa, Bernhard Riegl, Peter A. Cook

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches, Lectures

Africa's southernmost coral communities are situated in northern Natal, South Africa (27°50' S), within the Maputaland and St. Lucia Marine Reserves. Growing concern about the possible impact of recreational acti vities on the health of the coral ecosystem prompted the present study on the structure and health of the reefs. Coral community studies by means of line transects identified three basic coral community types, which correlated with the geomorphology of the sandstone outcrops on which corals grew. 1) Fossil dunes were dominated by alcyonacea in depths between 8 and 24 m. 2) Flat outcrops between 18 and 24 m depth …

Taphonomy Of Isocrinid Stalks: Influence Of Decay And Autotomy, Tomasz K. Baumiller, Ghislaine Llewellyn, Charles G. Messing, William I. Ausich Jan 1995

Taphonomy Of Isocrinid Stalks: Influence Of Decay And Autotomy, Tomasz K. Baumiller, Ghislaine Llewellyn, Charles G. Messing, William I. Ausich

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Articles

Stalks of isocrinid crinoids are differentiated into cirri-bearing columnals (nodals) and columnals lacking cirri (internodals). This skeletal differentiation allowed us to test whether stalk fragmentation is random or whether it occurs preferentially at a specific articulation. Our analyses indicate that the patterns of fragmentation in multicolumnal segments of extant isocrinids collected by submersible, by dredging, and in sediment samples, as well as those found as fossils, are nonrandom. The preferred plane of fragmentation corresponds to the synostosis, the articulation between a nodal and the internodal distal to it. In isocrinids this articulation has a characteristic morphology and is the site …

Evaluation Of A Novel Material For Recycling Tires Into Artificial Reefs - Final Report, Richard E. Spieler Jan 1995

Evaluation Of A Novel Material For Recycling Tires Into Artificial Reefs - Final Report, Richard E. Spieler

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Reports

The purpose of this study was to evaluate, from a biological perspective, a tire-concrete aggregate which uses tire shreds mixed into concrete, as a suitable reef building material. Evaluation consisted of comparing the biological assemblages associated with tire-aggregate reefs to standard gravel-concrete reefs of the same design. Four artificial reefs of concrete, tetrahedron modules were placed off Fort Lauderdale, Florida in seven meters of water, two reefs of each type of aggregate. Each reef contains 25 small (1m/side) and 25 large (1.3m/side) tetrahedrons stacked in a random configuration. The reefs were monitored at monthly, or less, intervals for 28 months. …


Alkaline Phosphatase Activity And Phosphorus Limitation In Marine Macroalgae From The Florida Keys And The Bahamas, Christine M. Urnezis Jan 1995

Alkaline Phosphatase Activity And Phosphorus Limitation In Marine Macroalgae From The Florida Keys And The Bahamas, Christine M. Urnezis

HCNSO Student Theses and Dissertations

Anthropogenic nutrient enrichment and coastal eutrophication are a primary threat to the biological integrity of coral reef ecosystems. Macroalgal blooms are one symptom of eutrophication and provide useful 'bioindicators' of the nutrient dynamics associated with the eutrophication process. This study used marine macroalgae to monitor physiological processes associated with eutrophication by comparing the degree of phosphorus (P) limitation in reef and nearshore environments of the highly developed Florida Keys with the relatively pristine Bahamas by measuring enzymatic alkaline phosphatase activity (APA), tissue composition, and water column nutrient concentrations [total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP)]. Experimental nutrient enrichment studies were …

Idea Analysis For The Development Of Clinical Trial Strategies, Roberta S. Horowitz Jan 1995

Idea Analysis For The Development Of Clinical Trial Strategies, Roberta S. Horowitz

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

Idea Analysis was investigated to determine its ability to organize scientific information and explain the results of specialists' deliberations in designing new clinical trials. Ideas have long been recognized as the engine of creativity. By focusing on the capture of ideas from the scientific literature, idea analysis procedures enable the arrangement of the information into forms consistent with those developed by subject specialists. The most obvious example is the concept structure. Ideas containing a common frequently occurring term/phrase can be depicted as a primary node in the concept network. Related terms will appear as elements associated with that node. Ideas …
