The Marine Microbial Eukaryote Transcriptome Sequencing Project (MMETSP): Illuminating the Functional Diversity of Eukaryotic Life in the Oceans through Transcriptome Sequencing

Patrick J. Keeling, +89 more
- 24 Jun 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a resource of 700 transcriptomes from marine microbial eukaryotes to help understand their role in the world's oceans and their biology, evolution, and ecology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immune responses to infectious diseases in bivalves.

TL;DR: It is concluded that one of the remaining challenges is to use new "omics" technologies to understand how this diverse array of factors is integrated and controlled during infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization, dynamics, and ecological impacts of harmful Cochlodinium polykrikoides blooms on eastern Long Island, NY, USA

TL;DR: Blooms in the Peconic Estuary and Shinnecock Bay indicate C. polykrikoides blooms have become annual events on eastern Long Island and that bloom waters are capable of causing rapid mortality in multiple species of finfish and shellfish.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of temperature on defense parameters in manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum challenged with Vibrio tapetis.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that temperature strongly affects BRD development and clam immune response during infection and favourable immune status at higher temperature may confer upon the clam a better capacity to fight the disease agent, and therefore to recover more easily.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alterations in hemolymph and extrapallial fluid parameters in the Manila clam, Ruditapes philippinarum, challenged with the pathogen Vibrio tapetis.

TL;DR: Hemocyte counts and lysozyme activity increased significantly in the hemolymph, but particularly in the extrapallial fluid, where the highest values were observed, suggesting defense system efficiency at neutralizing the pathogen.
