Saponin biosynthesis in Holothuroidea (sea cucumber) and Asteroidea (starfish)
Title
Saponin biosynthesis in Holothuroidea (sea cucumber) and Asteroidea (starfish).
Creator
Chen, Zhengjian., Florida Atlantic University, Kerr, Russell G.
Abstract/Description
Parkeol, Lanosta-9(11),24-dien-3beta-ol, was identified as the triterpene precursor of saponins which contain Delta9(11) unsaturation from sea cucumbers and shown not to be the precursor in starfish. Further, the site of saponin biosynthesis in sea cucumber was shown to be the cuvier gland. These results were obtained by "feeding" radiolabeled precursors to live specimens of sea cucumbers and starfish and by conducting incubation experiments with cell-free extracts.

SENSORY BASIS OF HOST LOCATION BY THE PEARLFISH, CARAPUS BERMUDENSIS (JONES)
Title
THE SENSORY BASIS OF HOST LOCATION BY THE PEARLFISH, CARAPUS BERMUDENSIS (JONES).
Creator
VAN METER, VICTORIA BROOK., Florida Atlantic University
Abstract/Description
This study was designed to determine the sensory basis of host location by the pearlfish, Carapus bermudensis (Jones). Forty-eight hour aquaria observations and examination of stomach contents revealed that pearlfish emerge, probably nightly, shortly after dark and feed on small crustaceans. Experiments in a two-way choice apparatus demonstrate that pearlfish locate the host holothurian, Actinopyga agassizi (Selenka), by olfaction. Vision and rheotaxis are not used as alternative methods of'...

Forty-eight hour aquaria observations and examination of stomach contents revealed that pearlfish emerge, probably nightly, shortly after dark and feed on small crustaceans. Experiments in a two-way choice apparatus demonstrate that pearlfish locate the host holothurian, Actinopyga agassizi (Selenka), by olfaction. Vision and rheotaxis are not used as alternative methods of' host location or in conjunction with olfaction. These findings are analyzed in terms of the present knowledge of sensory competence in fish.
