Metazoan parasites of snappers, Lutjanidae (Pisces) from Puerto Rico
(2004)
A total of 47 species of parasites were collected from 131 specimens of 13 species of
fishes of the family Lutjanidae (Pisces). Host specificity was analyzed using the
calculated mean intensity from each infection. ...

Comunidad bacteriana degradadora de gasolina en un bioreactor de lecho fluidizado
(2004)
The bacterial diversity used to bioremediate gasoline contaminated groundwater in a
fluidized bed reactor (FBR) was determined. Isolation and characterization of
bacterial populations from the bioremediation system was ...
Catastro de hongos miceliales en las estructuras de anidaje de la cotorra puertorriqueña, Amazona vittata vittata, en el Bosque de Río Abajo en Arecibo, Puerto Rico
(2004)
The Puerto Rican parrot, Amazona vittata vittata, is an endemic bird of Puerto
Rico and an endangered specie. The purpose of this research was to recover mycelial
fungi in the nesting structures, claws, beak, and vent ...
Post-hurricane growth and recruitment of plant species used by birds in Northern Puerto Rico
(2004)
In this work, I studied the effects of natural disturbances, specifically Hurricane Georges, on plant growth and survival in forests of north-central Puerto Rico. Eight study plots were monitored from February 1999 to ...
Infectious capability of the plus (+) and minus (-) strands of parvovirus LUIII
(2004)
The replication of autonomous parvovirus LuIII and its encapsidation
pattern have not been fully explained. Two genomic clones of LuIII, pBLu(+) and
pBLu(-), were constructed. These clones were used to produce the (+) ...
Replication of the 3' LUIII 3' subgenomic clone in human cells
(2004)
Parvoviruses are small, non-enveloped, icosahedral viruses that contain a
linear, single-stranded DNA genome of approximately 5000 bp. Parvovirus LuIII is an
autonomous parvovirus that shares up to 80% of sequence homology ...
Study of an ARS-like function of map units 88-100 of parvovirus LUIII
(2004)
The synthesis of minus strand by parvovirus LuIII requires replication from the
left palindrome of the plus strand DNA. An origin of replication yet to be identified must
be present at the right end of the minus strand, ...
Morphometric and molecular analysis of the mabouia-brooki haitianus Complex (Sauria: Gekkonidae) at the Western-Central Region of Puerto Rico
(2004)
The genus Hemidactylus belongs to the family Gekkonidae, a group of nocturnal lizards of African origin. Several species from this genus have arrived to the Western Hemisphere and have spawned many studies because the time ...
