Pilot studies for stock enhancement of purple sea urchins (Paracentrotus lividu...
Correia, MJ; Mega Lopes, P; Santos, PM; Jacinto, D; Mateus, D; Maresca, F; Quintella, B; Cruz, T; Sílvia, L; Pombo, A; Costa, JLIn the framework of stock enhancement, field experiments were conducted between March and July 2021 in rocky shores of Central Portugal to test the usefulness of refuges and calcein marking for juvenile sea urchins releases. Individuals with 10–20 mm in test diameter were captured in nature and tagged through immersion in a calcein bath with a concentration of 150 mg L−1, during 48 hr. Artificial shelters were ...
Physical and chemical tagging methods for the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus ...
Santos, PM; Quintella, B; Jacinto, David; Gomes, A; Saldanha, C; Lourenço, S; Lopes, P; Correia, MJ; Mateus, D; Cruz, T; Pombo, A; Costa, JLThe sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus (Lamarck, 1816) (Echinodermata: Echinoidea) is an important economic resource in Europe, but intense harvesting has led to the collapse of several natural populations. Echinoculture, associated with restocking and stock enhancement practices, is an alternative to this problem. In these procedures, reliable individual identification through tagging is a valuable source of inf...
Draft genome sequences of two Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates with dif...
Soares-Castro, P; Marques, D; Demyanchuck, S; Faustino, A; Santos, PMPseudomonas aeruginosa is a primary cause of opportunistic infections. We have sequenced and annotated the genomes of two P. aeruginosa clinical isolates evidencing different antibiotic susceptibilities. Registered differences in the composition of their accessory genomes may provide clues on P. aeruginosa strategies to thrive in different environments like infection loci.
