    Notes: Abstract We studied inadvertent egg cannibalism in spawning stocks of walleye pollock, Theragra chalcogramma, in the Gulf of Alaska and the Bering Sea between 1986 and 1996. Male pollock had on average 3 times more eggs in their stomachs than females. For both sexes adult fish of average body length had more eggs in their stomach than did smaller or larger fish. When maturity of fish was taken into account, actively spawning males had the highest numbers of eggs in their stomachs. We found weak evidence for a diel variation; the number of eggs per stomach was high in both sexes during the day and lower during the night. We suggest two possible explanations for this phenomenon. Sex-biased egg cannibalism may reflect the differential time spent in layers of high egg densities. Hydroacoustic and trawl catch data from both areas suggest that males aggregate deeper than females. Spawning takes place in the deeper layers of the fish aggregation, so males spend more time in high egg densities. Alternatively, males may be more active than females and increased gill ventilation and/or drinking rates may be responsible for the differences in egg cannibalism.

    Translational control and the cytoskeleton in Physarum polycephalum (1987)

    Notes: Translationally active plasmodia of the syncytial slime mold Physarum polycephalum develop into translationally dormant sclerotia during starvation. Although functional mRNA and ribosomes exist in sclerotia, protein synthesis is suppressed at the level of initiation. To test the possibility that alterations in the cytoskeleton may limit protein synthesis, we have examined the distribution of polysomes and actin mRNA in the cytoskeletal (CSK) and soluble (SOL) fractions of Triton X-100-extracted plasmodia and sclerotia. Most of the polysomes and actin mRNA were located in the CSK of plasmodia, while most of the ribosomes and actin mRNA were located in the SOL of sclerotia. The results suggest that ribosomes and mRNA shift from the CSK to the SOL as protein synthesis is suppressed during starvation. Plasmodia and sclerotia can be induced to accumulate excess polysomes by treatment with low levels of the elongation inhibitor cycloheximide. Treatment of plasmodia with cycloheximide caused excess polysomes to accumulate in the SOL, suggesting that the CSK contains a limited capacity for binding translational components and that the association of polysomes with the cytoskeleton is not required for protein synthesis. Treatment of sclerotia with cycloheximide, however, caused polysomes and actin mRNA to accumulate in the CSK, suggesting that the selcrotial cytoskeleton, although depleted in ribosomes and mRNA, is capable of binding translational components. It is concluded that alterations in the sclerotial cytoskeleton are not involved in translational control.

    Description: Global records on gelatinous zooplankton for the past 200 years.
    Description: The Jellyfish Database Initiative (JeDI) is a scientifically-coordinated global database dedicated to gelatinous zooplankton (members of the Cnidaria, Ctenophora and Thaliacea) and associated environmental data. The database holds 476,000 quantitative, categorical, presence-absence and presence only records of gelatinous zooplankton spanning the past four centuries (1790-2011) assembled from a variety of published and unpublished sources. Gelatinous zooplankton data are reported to species level, where identified, but taxonomic information on phylum, family and order are reported for all records. Other auxiliary metadata, such as physical, environmental and biometric information relating to the gelatinous zooplankton metadata, are included with each respective entry. JeDI has been developed and designed as an open access research tool for the scientific community to quantitatively define the global baseline of gelatinous zooplankton populations and to describe long-term and large-scale trends in gelatinous zooplankton populations and blooms. It has also been constructed as a future repository of datasets, thus allowing retrospective analyses of the baseline and trends in global gelatinous zooplankton populations to be conducted in the future.
