A Review Of Ministerial Policy Guidelines For Rock Lobster Processing In Western Australia From The Working Group Appointed By The Minister For Fisheries And Chaired By Peter Rich, Peter Rich
Fisheries management papers
The rock lobster processing industry in Western Australia has a long history of management. Whilst management of the industry through the Fisheries Department has obviously been successful in helping to build the rock lobster industry into one of the State's major export industries, this approach is not without problems. With the introduction of the Fisheries Management Act 1994, the Minister for Fisheries deemed it appropriate to appoint an expert group to review the existing regulation of the rock lobster processing sector, draft the necessary guidelines to assist the Executive Director of the Fisheries Department make decisions on rock lobster processing …
Connexin32 Is A Myelin-Related Protein In The Pns And Cns, Steven S. Scherer, Suzanne M. Deschênes, Yi-Tian Xu, Judith B. Grinspan, Kenneth H. Fischbeck, David L. Paul
Connexin32 Is A Myelin-Related Protein In The Pns And Cns, Steven S. Scherer, Suzanne M. Deschênes, Yi-Tian Xu, Judith B. Grinspan, Kenneth H. Fischbeck, David L. Paul
Biology Faculty Publications
We have examined the expression of a gap junction protein, connexin32 (Cx32), in Schwann cells and oligodendrocytes. In peripheral nerve, Cx32 is found in the paranodal myelin loops and Schmidt-Lanterman incisures of myelinating Schwann cells, and the levels of Cx32 protein and mRNA change in parallel with those of other myelin-related genes during development, Wallerian degeneration, and axonal regeneration. In the central nervous system, Cx32 is found in oligodendrocytes and their processes, but not in compact myelin, and the levels of Cx32 protein and mRNA increase during development in parallel with those of the other myelin genes. Thus, Cx32 is …

Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics Faculty Publications
Previous studies implicate the nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) p59fyn in the propagation of signals from the B cell antigen receptor. To elucidate the functions of this kinase, we examined B cell responsiveness in mice engineered to lack the hematopoietic isoform of p59fyn. Remarkably, antigen receptor signaling was only modestly defective in fynTnull B cells. In contrast, signaling from the interleukin (IL)-5 receptor which ordinarily provides a comitogenic stimulus with antiimmunoglobulin, was completely blocked. Our results document the importance of p59fynT in IL-5 responses in B cells, and they support a general model …
The Impact Of The New Management Package On Smaller Operators In The Western Rock Lobster Fishery, Ross Gould
The Impact Of The New Management Package On Smaller Operators In The Western Rock Lobster Fishery, Ross Gould
Fisheries management papers
For the 1993/94 western rock lobster fishing season several new management strategies were introduced. The objective of the changes to the management package was to protect the rock lobster fishery. It was also to provide sufficient breeding stock to ensure viability of the industry. The most significant new measure was a temporary (two seasons) 18 percent pot reduction. Other changes were also made. There were considered sound reasons for reviewing and changing the previous management package. Despite this, some fishermen were critical of the new management package, and claimed that it unfairly disadvantaged smaller operators. Against this background, the Department …
West Coast Rock Lobster Fishery Management Plan 1995 - Draft For Public Comment, M. Moran
West Coast Rock Lobster Fishery Management Plan 1995 - Draft For Public Comment, M. Moran
Fisheries management papers
The purpose of this management plan is to regulate fishing for rock lobsters (Family Palimuridae) in waters off the west coast of Western Australia such that the breeding stock of rock lobsters is maintained at a level known to have generated adequate recruitment of young lobsters in the past. This management plan does not constitute a change in the management arrangements for the rock lobster fishery. It essentially replaces the West Coast Rock Lobster Limited Entry Fishery Notice 1993 made under the Fisheries Act 1905 and makes the required changes to wording and structure necessitated by the proclamation of the …
Bag And Size Limit Fishing Regulations From Around Australia - Current Information As At 1 July, 1995 - Third Australasian Fisheries Managers Conference, Rottnest Island, Wa, F. B. Prokop
Fisheries management papers
This paper was originally prepared for the first National Fisheries Managers Conference in 1993. It is now updated and includes the current bag and size limits from around Australia as at 1 July, 1995. It is fairly obvious from this paper that there is a need for more cooperation between the states, particularly for species which have wide distributions. However, regional solutions can be a good approach for specific management needs, while general rules can be made more consistent in a number of cases.

Fisheries management papers
The Recreational Fishing Advisory Committee (RFAC) approved holding this translocation seminar to air the translocation of fish for recreational enhancement in a public forum. This forum will identify issues including establishing common ground between the variety of interest groups which are represented. Contentious areas which require further investigation and consultation should become apparent, and assist the formulation of appropriate policies on translocation for Western Australia.
Management Of The Northern Demersal Scalefish Fishery, Jane Fowler
Management Of The Northern Demersal Scalefish Fishery, Jane Fowler
Fisheries management papers
In mid 1994, the Fisheries Department of Western Australia announced that it would prepare a discussion paper setting out options for future management of the demersal scalefish fishery off the Kimberley coast. This paper, which was to be the start of a wider consultative process, was also to include options for possible further development of the trap and line fisheries. This paper is only the first step in a process for developing formal long term management arrangements under the new fisheries legislation, the Fish Resources Management Act 1994. Its aim is to provide some background and to present some management …
Report On Future Management Options For The South West Trawl Limited Entry Fishery, South West Trawl Limited Entry Fishery Working Group
Report On Future Management Options For The South West Trawl Limited Entry Fishery, South West Trawl Limited Entry Fishery Working Group
Fisheries management papers
As a result of community concern regarding trawling, the current management rules for the South West Trawl Limited Entry Fishery were finalised in February 1989 and the final plan was gazetted in October of that year. However, there was public disquiet about this trawling, and as a result of this disquiet, a research program was initiated by the Fisheries Department with funding received from both the Commonwealth and State Governments. The scientific report, "The impact of trawling for saucer scallops and western king prawns on the benthic communities in coastal waters off south-western Australia" by L J B Laurenson, P …
Management Options (Discussion Paper) For The Shark Bay Snapper Limited Entry Fishery, Shark Bay Snapper Limited Entry Fishery Working Group, Doug Bathgate
Management Options (Discussion Paper) For The Shark Bay Snapper Limited Entry Fishery, Shark Bay Snapper Limited Entry Fishery Working Group, Doug Bathgate
Fisheries management papers
At the Annual Management Meeting of the Shark Bay Snapper Limited Entry Fishery held on 22 July 1994 industry put forward a proposal that supplementary and non-transferable quota that was "lost" to the fishery when a licence holding non-transferable quota was transferred should be retained by the Fisheries Department and leased back to licence holders on an annual basis. As a result of this proposal and the fact that the management arrangements for the fishery are extremely complex and in need of simplification, the Minster for Fisheries approved the establishment of a Working Group to examine the lease-back proposal and …
3 Genes Of The Map Kinase Cascade, Mek-2, Mpk-1/Sur-1 And Let-60 Ras, Are Required For Meiotic Cell-Cycle Progression In Caenorhabditis-Elegans, Diane L. Church, Kun Liang Guan, Eric J. Lambie
3 Genes Of The Map Kinase Cascade, Mek-2, Mpk-1/Sur-1 And Let-60 Ras, Are Required For Meiotic Cell-Cycle Progression In Caenorhabditis-Elegans, Diane L. Church, Kun Liang Guan, Eric J. Lambie
Dartmouth Scholarship
In the germline of Caenorhabditis elegans hermaphrodites, meiotic cell cycle progression occurs in spatially restricted regions. Immediately after leaving the distal mitotic region, germ cells enter meiosis and thereafter remain in the pachytene stage of first meiotic prophase for an extended period. At the dorsoventral gonadal flexure, germ cells exit pachytene and subsequently become arrested in diakinesis. We have found that exit from pachytene is dependent on the function of three members of the MAP kinase signaling cascade. One of these genes, mek-2, is a newly identified C. elegans MEK (MAP kinase kinase). The other two genes, mpk-1/sur-1 (MAP kinase) …

The Best Available Information - Its Implications For Recreational Fisheries Management, F. B. Prokop
The Best Available Information - Its Implications For Recreational Fisheries Management, F. B. Prokop
Fisheries management papers
Workshop at Second National Fisheries Managers Conference, Bribie Island, Queensland, October 18, 1994. Recreational fisheries management is one of the growth areas in Australian fisheries. The Australian Society for Fish Biology Workshop topic for its 1994 Conference was Recreational Fishing - What's the Catch. It was acknowledged at the ASFB conference that there were generally poor levels of information and for the lower value commercial and recreational fisheries there may be no way to gather definitive research data for the foreseeable future. However, in even the high profile fisheries, public perceptions, attitudes, and political will do not allow for the …

Plant Community Changes Over 54 Years Within The Great Basin Experimental Range, Manti-La Sal National Forest, Scott C. Walker, David K. Mann, E. Durant Mcarthur
Aspen Bibliography
Plant community changes and natural succession over time impact forage values, watershed quality, wildlife habitat, and ecosystem dynamics. Comparisons were made between a vegetation map of community types completed in 1937 by the U.S. Forest Service, and vegetation maps compiled in 1990 of the same areas by satellite imagery, and through 1991 areal photo interpretation combined with ground truthing. The study area includes nearly all of the drainage in Ephraim Canyon located in central Utah which consists of 6,027 acres (2,439 ha). Elevation ranges from 6,600 to 10,400 feet (2,040 to 3,210 m). Vegetation types ranged from pinyon-juniper woodland through …

Analyzing Correlations Of Three Types In Selected Lines Of Drosophila Melanogaster That Have Evolved Stable Extreme Geotactic Performance, Scott F. Stoltenberg, Jerry Hirsch, Stewart H. Berlocher
Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications
The behavior-genetic analysis of Drosophila melanogaster with geotactic performance as the phenotype is an ideal model system with which to investigate the complex relations between heredity and behavior. As part of a long-term, 38-year study, we report 4 experiments that identify and analyze trait correlations in the selected high- and low-geotaxis lines. We performed F2 correlational analyses and backcrosses to examine 3 types of correlations: (a) genotype-genotype (alcohol dehydrogenase [Adh]-amylase [Amy]), (b) genotype-phenotype (Adh and Amy-geotaxis), and (c) phenotype-phenotype (mate preference–geotaxis). Only the Adh-geotaxis correlation survived meiosis and reappeared in the F …
Enhancer Trap Technique: A Novel Tool For Identification And Developmental Characterization Of Genes Of Drosophila, Amit Singh
Biology Faculty Publications
The classical technique of mutational screen for identification of genes controlling early development has now approached saturation. A new era in genetic identification and developmental characterization of genes in Drosophila has commenced with the advent of the enhancer trap technique. This technique involves mobilization of a P-lacZ vector to diverse chromosomal locations in the fruit fly genome to bring it under the regulation of developmentally expressed genes or their enhancer elements. The technique offers a strikingly elegant method of gaining entry into fruit fly genes.

Isolation Of A Mouse Cdna Encoding Mtj1, A New Murine Member Of The Dnaj Family Of Proteins, Shannon E. Brightman, Gregory L. Blatch, Bruce R. Zetter
Biology Faculty Publications
We report the isolation and sequencing of MTJ1, a 1792-bp cDNA from an M27 murine lung carcinoma cell line. The largest ORF within MTJ1 encodes a 63,869-Da protein, containing a 73-amino-acid (aa) sequence (the J domain) that is conserved in proteins of the DnaJ family of chaperonins. The J domain of MTJ1 is bracketed by potential transmembrane domains in a similar configuration to the J domain of the yeast DnaJ-like protein, SEC63. Polyclonal antibodies raised against deduced aa sequences within MTJ1 recognized antigens of 62, 42 and 41 kDa that were enriched in the nuclear and heavy microsome subcellular fractions …

Implications Of Native Title Legislation For Fisheries Management And The Fishing Industry In Western Australia, Patricia Summerfield
Fisheries management papers
This paper seeks to examine the key issues of both State and Commonwealth native title legislation for the fishing industry and fisheries management in Western Australia. Considerations for Aboriginal involvement in the industry and long-standing as well as recent concessionary arrangements for traditional usage of fish resources are examined. Industry reactions and future plans to accommodate native title in a positive framework are explored.
An Improved Method For Chemical Devitellinization Of X-Gal Stained Drosophila Embryos, Amit Singh, Madhuri Kango-Singh, P. Sinha
An Improved Method For Chemical Devitellinization Of X-Gal Stained Drosophila Embryos, Amit Singh, Madhuri Kango-Singh, P. Sinha
Biology Faculty Publications
In Drosophila developmental biological studies, X-gal staining is commonly employed to study the spatio-temporal expression of the lacZ reporter gene in the transformed flies or their embryos. Study of the lacZ pattern in embryos often suffers from the lack of an efficient and high yieldirrg technique for devitellinization of X-gal stained embryos. Devitellinization techniques employed during antibody staining, in situ hybridization or embryonic cuticular preparations generally do not give satisfactory results when used for similar purpose in X-gal stained embryos. This results in the flaky appearance of the blue stain. We present here an improved chemical devitellinization technique which gives …

Characterization Of A Mutant Strain Of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae With A Deletion Of The Rad27 Gene, A Structural Homolog Of The Rad2 Nucleotide Excision Repair Gene, Michael S. Reagan, Christopher Pittenger, Wolfram Siede, Errol C. Friedberg
Biology Faculty Publications
We have constructed a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with a deletion of the YKL510 open reading frame, which was initially identified in chromosome XI as a homolog of the RAD2 nucleotide excision repair gene (A. Jacquier, P. Legrain, and B. Dujon, Yeast 8:121–132, 1992). The mutant strain exhibits increased sensitivity to UV light and to the alkylating agent methylmethane sulfonate but not to ionizing radiation. We have renamed the YKL510 open reading frame the RAD27 gene, in keeping with the accepted nomenclature for radiationsensitive yeast mutants. Epistasis analysis indicates that the gene is in the RAD6 group of genes, which …

In vitro neurovirological studies of viral infectivity or viral gene expression may be confounded by the mulHple neural cell types and/or fibrob last contamination present in early passage cultures prepared from dissociated human central nervous system (eNS) tissue. We have developed highly enriched astrocyte cultures for neurovirological study by culturing in a serum-free defined medium, 816, supplemented with basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2). Subculture in this medium selects against fibroblast proliferation and favors sustained proliferation of a highly enriched glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-positive cell population. These astrocytes support productive replication of cytomegalovirus (CMV) and transient expression of transfected CMVand …

Large terminal fragments of human chromosomes 2p, 6q, 8q, 12q, and 18q were cloned using yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs). RecA-assisted restriction endonuclease (RARE) cleavage analysis of genomic DNA samples from 11 unrelated individuals using YAC-derived probes confirmed the telomeric localizations of the half-YACs studied. The cloned Fragments provide telomeric closure of maps for the respective chromosome arms and will supply the reagents needed for analyzing and sequencing these distal subtelomeric regions.
