Show moreThe marine environment has proven to be an extremely rich source of novel natural products with activities in a variety of biological assays. The field of marine natural products chemistry has enjoyed an explosion of growth over the past 40 years and currently there are marine-derived metabolites in clinical trials for cancer, analgesia, allergy and cognitive diseases. Even with this tremendous development, it is clear that chemists and pharmacologists are only beginning to scratch the surface of the biomedical potential of marine organisms. One problem with this source of new pharmaceuticals is that the supply of such compounds can be problematic. The thesis describes projects directed at fundamental biosynthetic questions regarding terpenes from marine corals. In a general sense, these projects are directed as addressing the supply issue identified above. One project examined the origin of terpene building blocks in the coral Pseudopterogorgia elisabethae. A second project focused on the characterization of terpenes from Leptogorgia minimata. Here, a new cembranoid diterpene was isolated. Experiments were also conducted to identify a microbial source of terpene biosynthesis in this system. Data strongly supported a bacterial origin of these compounds.

- TIMELINE OF NUTRIENT INCORPORATION FROM BROODSTOCK DIET TO EGG IN CALIFORNIA YELLOWTAIL, SERIOLA DORSALIS.

- Abstract/Description

Existing brood fish research has ascertained that eggs are heavily influenced by broodstock diet but there is no information regarding this timeline of nutritional incorporation. The objective of this study is to determine duration of nutritional incorporation from diet to eggs through fatty acids. Nine California Yellowtail (Seriola dorsalis) broodstock were fed alternating diets of commercial pellets (Vitalis PRIMA: Skretting) and cutbait. Biochemical and biometric data from spawns were...
Show moreExisting brood fish research has ascertained that eggs are heavily influenced by broodstock diet but there is no information regarding this timeline of nutritional incorporation. The objective of this study is to determine duration of nutritional incorporation from diet to eggs through fatty acids. Nine California Yellowtail (Seriola dorsalis) broodstock were fed alternating diets of commercial pellets (Vitalis PRIMA: Skretting) and cutbait. Biochemical and biometric data from spawns were collected and analyzed for differences and similarities throughout the alternating diets. Eggs were observed to selectively incorporate higher sources of linolenic and linoleic acid from the pelleted diet, and eicosapentaenoic acid from the cutbait diet. Interestingly, results showed overall fatty acids from both diets were fully incorporated by eggs within 9 days following the diet switch. These findings provided new insight towards the selective incorporation of nutrients and will open new doors for future broodstock nutrition research.

- Effects of parasitism on the reproduction of common snook.
- Creator
- Young, Joy M., Hughes, Colin, Florida Atlantic University, Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Biological Sciences
- Abstract/Description
-
The effect of parasitism on the individual, and on a population, is one of the least understood and poorly studied areas of fish ecology. Parasites compete for maternal energetic reserves required for the production of viable eggs and offspring; thus parasites can directly influence population dynamics by lowering the number of offspring that survive to produce. The goal of this work was to explore the effect of parasitism on the reproductive potential of fish. Traditional measures of somatic...
Show moreThe effect of parasitism on the individual, and on a population, is one of the least understood and poorly studied areas of fish ecology. Parasites compete for maternal energetic reserves required for the production of viable eggs and offspring; thus parasites can directly influence population dynamics by lowering the number of offspring that survive to produce. The goal of this work was to explore the effect of parasitism on the reproductive potential of fish. Traditional measures of somatic energy reserves and body condition were examined along with newer measures of fatty acids present in eggs to approximate reproductive potential. Eighty female common snook, Centropomus undecimalis, were collected during spawning season (mid April to mid October) from four spawning aggregations along the southeastern coast of Florida and examined for a suite of biological, reproductive, and parasite infection measures. General linear models were used to model somatic indices, body condition, fatty acid composition and the ratios of fatty acids in eggs as a function of parasite infection parameters, host age, capture location, capture month and year. All fish were included in the somatic indices and body condition analysis while a subset of 40 fish were used in the analysis on fatty acid composition and the ratios of fatty acids in eggs.

- Abstract/Description
-
Few phosphorus (P) depleted coastal marine ecosystems have been examined for their capacity to hydrolyze phosphomonoesters (PMEs). The purpose of this study was to examine seasonal APA partitioning between water column fractions (phytoplankton, bacteria and freely dissolved) and benthic autotrophs in Florida Bay, a P limited shallow estuary using low fluorescent substrate (MUF-P) concentrations (≤2.0 μm). APA was higher at the western and northcentral (751 and 695 nmol L^-1 h^-1) sites and...
Show moreFew phosphorus (P) depleted coastal marine ecosystems have been examined for their capacity to hydrolyze phosphomonoesters (PMEs). The purpose of this study was to examine seasonal APA partitioning between water column fractions (phytoplankton, bacteria and freely dissolved) and benthic autotrophs in Florida Bay, a P limited shallow estuary using low fluorescent substrate (MUF-P) concentrations (≤2.0 μm). APA was higher at the western and northcentral (751 and 695 nmol L^-1 h^-1) sites and driven by cyanobacterial blooms, compared to the P limited northeastern (359 nmol L^-1 h^-1) site The free dissolved fraction (<0.2 μm) accounted for the most APA (~50%), followed by the phytoplankton (>1 μm; 30%) and bacteria fraction (<0.2-> 1.2 μm; 8%). Thaiassia testudinum leaves with their associated epiphytes contributed modestly to water column APA (14 and 20%), and only during non-bloom conditions. Rapid hydrolysis of PMEs (undetected in most samplings) in Florida Bay is probably driven by high concentration of organic substrates for microbial and cyanobacterial activity which results from the close association of the shallow water column with the underlying seagrass community and adjacent Everglades wetlands.
