white spot syndrome virus and the caribbean spiny lobster panulirus argus susceptibility and behavioral immunity
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2019Co-Authors: Erica P Ross, Donald C. Behringer, Jamie BojkoAbstract:The Caribbean spiny lobster Panulirus argus is susceptible to infection by Panulirus argus Virus 1 (PaV1), the only virus known to naturally infect any lobster species. However, P. argus is able to mitigate PaV1 transmission risk by avoiding infected individuals. P. argus may also be susceptible to another lethal virus, White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV). WSSV has not been documented in wild populations of spiny lobsters, but has been experimentally transmitted to six other lobster species from the genus Panulirus. Although WSSV has been detected intermittently in wild populations of shrimp in the Caribbean region, the risk to P. argus has not been evaluated. Potential emergence of the disease could result in fisheries losses and ecological disruption. To assess the risk to P. argus, we tested its susceptibility to WSSV via injection and waterborne transmission. We also tested whether healthy lobsters can detect and avoid conspecifics with qPCR-quantifiable WSSV infections. We found P. argus to be highly susceptible to WSSV via intramuscular injection, with mortality reaching 88% four weeks post inoculation. Panulirus argus was also susceptible to WSSV via waterborne transmission, but WSSV burden was low after four weeks via qPCR. Behavioral assays indicated that P. argus can detect and avoid conspecifics infected with WSSV and the avoidance response was strongest for the most heavily infected individuals - a response comparable to PaV1-infected conspecifics. Panulirus argus is the first spiny lobster found to be susceptible to WSSV in the Americas, but it is possible that a generalized avoidance response by healthy lobsters against infected conspecifics provides a behavioral defense and may reduce WSSV infection potential and prevalence. Preliminary evidence suggests that the infiltration of hemolymph constituents into the urine may be the source of the avoidance behavior and could therefore extend to other directly transmitted pathogens in spiny lobster populations preventing them from becoming common in their population.

AKURASI JADWAL SALAT Arius SYAIKHI PAYAKUMBUH SEBAGAI PANDUAN WAKTU SALAT BAGI MASYARAKAT PROVINSI LAMPUNG
'Raden Intan State Islamic University of Lampung', 2017Co-Authors: Jayusman JayusmanAbstract:Abstract: The Accuracy of Prayer Schedule of Arius Syaikhi Payakumbuh in Determining Prayer Times in Lampung Province. In order to help the Muslims in determining the initial times of prayers, a number of astronomers has made a schedule of prayers, which were name: All Time Prayer Schedule, Forever Schedule of Prayers, and so forth. In each schedule, it is also included a correction for each region that can be used by the Muslims living in certain location. One of the prayers time schedule circulated in Lampung province and which has been used by the public at large, is the All Time Prayer Schedule made by Arius Syaikhi. Unfortunately, based on a research finding, the Prayer Time Schedule, which has been widely circulated among Muslims in Lampung Province, turned out to be inaccurate, especially for the city of Tanjung Karang, Teluk Betung, Metro and Menggala. This article describes the above-mentioned inaccuracy. Keywords: time schedule for prayers, Arius Syaikhi, the science of falak Abstrak: Akurasi Jadwal Salat Arius Syaikhi Payakumbuh Sebagai Panduan Waktu Salat Bagi Masyarakat Provinsi Lampung. Guna membantu kaum muslimin dalam menentukan awal waktu salat, sejumlah ahli falak telah membuat jadwal salat; ada yang menamakannya dengan Jadwal Salat Sepanjang Masa, Jadwal Salat Abadi, dan sebagainya. Dalam setiap jadwal disertakan pula koreksi waktu untuk setiap wilayah yang dapat digunakan oleh kaum muslimin sesuai dengan lokasi di mana mereka berada. Salah satu jadwal waktu salat yang beredar di provinsi Lampung dan telah digunakan oleh masyarakat secara luas, adalah Jadwal Waktu Salat Untuk Selama-Lamanya yang dihisab oleh Arius Syaikhi. Sayangnya, berdasarkan hasil penelitian, Jadwal Waktu Salat yang telah beredar luas ini ternyata tidak akurat, khususnya untuk kota Tanjung Karang, Teluk Betung, Panjang, Metro dan Menggala. Artikel ini menjelaskan beberapa hal yang berkaitan dengan ketidakakuratan itu. Kata Kunci: jadwal salat, Arius Syaikhi, ilmu fala

the hypervariable domain of the mitochondrial control region in atlantic spiny lobsters and its potential as a marker for investigating phylogeographic structuring
Marine Biotechnology, 2005Co-Authors: Fabio M Diniz, Norman Maclean, Masayoshi Ogawa, Israel Hidenburgo Aniceto Cintra, Paul BentzenAbstract:Atlantic spiny lobsters support major fisheries in northeastern Brazilian waters and in the Caribbean Sea. To avoid reduction in diversity and elimination of distinct stocks, understanding their population dynamics, including structuring of populations and genetic diversity, is critical. We here explore the potential of using the hypervariable domain in the control region of the mitochondrial DNA as a genetic marker to characterize population subdivision in spiny lobsters, using Panulirus argus as the species model. The primers designed on the neighboring conserved genes have amplified the entire control region (approx. 780 bases) of P. argus and other closely related species. Average nucleotide and haplotype diversity within P. argus were found to be high, and population structuring was hypothesized. The data suggest a division of P. argus into genetically different phylogeographic groups. The hypervariable domain seems to be useful for determining genetic differentiation of geographically distinct stocks of P. argus and other Atlantic spiny lobsters.
