EFFECTS OF LIGHT, FOOD AVAILABILITY AND TEMPERATURE STRESS ON THE FUNCTION OF PHOTOSYSTEM II AND PHOTOSYSTEM I OF CORAL SYMBIONTS.

Effects of light, food availability and temperature stress on the function of photosystem II and photosystem I of coral symbionts.

Reef corals are heterotrophic coelenterates that achieve high productivity through their photosynthetic dinoflagellate symbionts.Excessive seawater temperature destabilises this symbiosis and causes corals to "bleach," lowering their photosynthetic capacity.Bleaching poses a serious threat to the persistence of coral reefs on a global scale.Despite

Perspectives on the utility of moxidectin for the control of parasitic nematodes in the face of developing anthelmintic resistance

Macrocyclic lactone (ML) anthelmintics are the most important class of anthelmintics because of our high dependence on them for the control of nematode parasites and some ectoparasites in livestock, companion animals and in humans.However, resistance to MLs is of increasing concern.Resistance is commonplace throughout the world in nematode parasite
