Ecological factors modulate animal immunocompetence and potentially shape the evolution of their immune systems. Not only
environmental parameters impact on immunocompetence: Aging is one major cause of variability of immunocompetence between individuals,
and sex-specific levels of immunocompetence have also been frequently described. Moreover, a growing core of data put in light
that vertically transmitted symbionts can dramatically modulate the immunocompetence of their hosts. In this study, we addressed
the influence of gender, age and the feminising endosymbiont Wolbachia (wVulC) on variations in haemocyte density, total PO activity and bacterial load in the haemolymph of the terrestrial isopod
Armadillidium vulgare. This host–symbiont system is of particular interest to address this question since: (1) wVulC was previously shown as immunosuppressive in middle-aged females and (2) wVulC influences sex determination. We show that age, gender and Wolbachia modulate together immune parameters in A. vulgare. However, wVulC, which interacts with aging, appears to be the prominent factor interfering with both PO activity and haemocyte density.
This interference with immune parameters is not the only aspect of wVulC virulence on its host, as reproduction and survival are also altered. 相似文献

Improper disposal, accidental spills and leaks of non-aqueousphase liquids (NAPL) such as gasoline, fuel oil and creosote result in long-term persistent sources of groundwater pollution.Column and 2-D tanks experiments were conducted to evaluate the use of surfactant-enhanced recovery of light non-aqueous phase liquids (LNAPL) in groundwater aquifers. These experiments focused on the use of surfactants to promote dissolution and mobilization in addition to evaluating the increase of aqueous phase permeability as residual NAPL is recovered. Further experiments are presented that show the innovative use of surfactants during primary pumping to recover free product canpotentially increase the amount of free product recovered, canpotentially reduce the amount of residual NAPL remaining afterprimary pumping and performs better than the use of surfactantsto mobilize trapped residual NAPL. 相似文献

Aqueous phase adsorption of three textile dyes onto a granular activated carbon produced from acid activation of almond shells
is presented. Primarily, the sorption of three basic dyes, methylene blue, rhodamine b, and malachite green oxalate were studied.
Four models, the Freundlich, the Langmuir, the Redlich-Peterson, and the Toth isotherms were compared for their quality of
fit to the single-solute sorption data. Next, sorption of the three likely binary systems was examined. Four bi-solute models,
the extended Langmuir with and without an interaction term, the extended Redlich-Peterson with an interaction term, and the
empirical extended Freundlich model were used to predict sorption in the binary systems. Nonlinearly determined constants
of the corresponding single-solute isotherms were used in the binary models to compare with experimental binary sorption data.
For the single-solute system, the three-parameter models of the Redlich-Peterson and the Toth isotherms outperformed the Langmuir
and Freundlich models. The empirical extended Freundlich model produced the closest comparison to the binary data in each
system. In general, the nonlinear method provided a simple and computationally effective technique of producing optimal fitting
parameters for the bi-solute sorption models. 相似文献

The hamlets are a group of vividly colored fish species of the Serranidae family differentiated only by the color pattern of the body. Although there are divergent views about hamlet taxonomy, experimental and field observations have shown a strong assortative mating, justifying a species status for the different color morphs. Here we analyze the level of evolutionary divergence among six species in respect of mitochondrial DNA, with a view to contrasting the pattern observed with color partitions and previous results obtained with isozymes. The estimated molecular distance among species was low and of the same magnitude as nucleotide diversity within species. Consequently, the net distance and hence the time of divergence between taxa was virtually zero in most comparisons. Although not critically tested, haplotype distribution showed no clear phylogeographic structure, and in many cases the most closely related haplotypes were found at different geographical locations. The absence of differentiated clades between species, based on mitochondrial DNA and isozyme analysis, may have one of two possible origins: a very recent differentiation of species or a lack of absolute barriers to gene flow. However, the available information is insufficient to determine the effect of one or the other, and may require supplementary information from other genes as well as experiments on hybrid fertility. Finally, based on some biological evidence, we suggest that self-fertilization may be an interesting phenomenon to be tested in Hypoplectrus.Communicated by S.A. Poulet, Roscoff 相似文献

Ultrafine particles represent a growing concern in the public health community but their precise role in many illnesses is still unknown. This lack of knowledge is related to the experimental difficulty in linking their biological effects to their multiple properties, which are important determinants of toxicity. Our aim is to propose an interdisciplinary approach to study fine(FP) and ultrafine(UFP) particles, generated in a controlled manner using a mini CAST(Combustion Aerosol Standard) soot ... 相似文献
