DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF MANAGEMENT FOR FOUR SHRIMP DISEASES (TSV, YHV, WSSV AND NHP) IN THE WHITE SHRIMP Penaeus vannamei THROUGH DIFFERENT STRATEGIESAranguren, Luis Fernando January 2011 (has links)
A series of studies were conducted as part of my dissertation research on certain diseases of farmed penaeid shrimp and on strategies that might be applied to manage these diseases. These studies focused on the development and application of management for four shrimp diseases (TSV, YHV, WSSV and NHP) in the white shrimp Penaeus vannamei through different strategies. The studies focused on efforts to identify a new strain of Taura syndrome virus (TSV), and the prevention or mitigation of infection by Yellow Head Disease (YHD), White Spot Disease (WSD), and Necrotizing Hepatopancreatitis (NHP). The new strain of TSV reported in this study is among the most pathogenic strains discovered to date. Disease management strategies investigated include the prevention of YHD in the Americas by pre-exposing Specific-Pathogen-Free (SPF) Penaeus vannamei to TSV. The other strategy investigated involved the use of a prototype "vaccine" that binds to the specific shrimp cell receptors and thus, prevents WSSV from establishing an infection. The last strategy attempted to elucidate the reasons for the very low prevalence of NHP in commercial shrimp ponds in Colombia. It was found that through establishment of a breeding program in which shrimp were selected for resistance to TSV infection, Colombian shrimp farmers also, but indirectly, selected for resistance to NHP.

Development of a 16S rRNA PCR-RFLP Assay for Bartonella Identification: Applicability in the Identification of Species Involved in Human InfectionsDel Valle, Luis J., Jaramillo, Michael L., Talledo, Miguel, Pons, Maria J., Flores, Lidia, Quispe, Ruth L., Ramírez, Pablo, García de la Guarda, Ruth, Alvarado, Débora, Espinoza-Culupú, Abraham, Del Valle Mendoza, Juana, Vargas, Martha, Ruíz, Joaquim 02 July 2014 (has links)
Abstract We designed a 16S rRNA gene PCR-RFLP scheme to identify all currently described Bartonella spp. The 16S rRNA genes of all Bartonella spp. were in-silico analyzed in order to design a RFLP technique able to discriminate among different species. The restriction enzymes selected were MaeIII, MseI, Sau96I, BsaAI, DrdI, FokI, BssHII, BstUI, AluI, TspDTI and HphI which, according to a decision-making tree, facilitated the differentiation of all the currently described species of Bartonella.The technique was experimentally tested in different species of Bartonella, including human pathogenic B. bacilliformis and B. henselae with a 100% of concordance with the in-silico predicted patterns.This novel RFLP assay could be used to identify both human and non-human pathogenic Bartonella in diagnostic, phylogenetic and epidemiologic studies.
