PH drop impacts differentially skin and gut microbiota of the Amazonian fish ta...
Sylvain, François Étienne; Cheaib, Bachar; Llewellyn, Martin Stephen; Correia, Tiago Gabriel; Fagundes, Daniel Barros; Val, Adalberto LuisAquatic organisms are increasingly exposed to lowering of environmental pH due to anthropogenic pressure (e.g. acid rain, acid mine drainages). Such acute variations trigger imbalance of fish-Associated microbiota, which in turn favour opportunistic diseases. We used the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum), an Amazonian fish tolerant to significant pH variation in its natural environment, to assess the response of ...
Functional categorization of transcriptome in the species Symphysodon aequifasc...
Souza Pinto Lemgruber, Renato de; Marshall, Nislanha Ana dos Anjos; Andrea, Ghelfi,; Fagundes, Daniel Barros; Val, Adalberto LuisThis study aims to evaluate the transcriptome alterations, through cDNA libraries, associated with the combined effects of two PAHs, benzo[a]pyrene (0.5 μg/L) and phenanthrene (50 μg/L), present in crude oil, on specimens of Symphysodon aequifasciatus (discus fish) after 48 h of exposure. The cDNA libraries were constructed according to the SOLiD™ SAGE™ protocol for sequencing in the SOLiD v.3 Plus sequencer. T...
