As part of the Tropical Amphibian Declines in Streams (TADS) project, we estimated macroinvertebrate production and constructed quantitative food webs for four headwater stream reaches in the Panamanian uplands: two that had experienced massive amphibian declines and two with unaffected amphibian populations. As expected for forested headwaters, allochthonous materials were the dominant energy source. Total macroinvertebrate biomass and production ranged from 231 to 360 mg ash-free dry mass m−2 and ...

Tadpoles are often abundant and diverse consumers in headwater streams in the Neotropics. However, their populations are declining catastrophically in many regions, in part because of a chytrid fungal pathogen. These declines are occurring along a moving disease front in Central America and offer the rare opportunity to quantify the consequences of a sudden, dramatic decline in consumer diversity in a natural system. As part of the Tropical Amphibian Declines in Streams (TADS) project, we examined ...

Summary 1. We quantified production and consumption of stream‐dwelling tadpoles and insect grazers in a headwater stream in the Panamanian uplands for 2 years to assess their effects on basal resources and energy fluxes. At the onset of our study, this region had healthy, diverse amphibian populations, but a catastrophic disease‐driven decline began in September 2004, which greatly reduced amphibian populations. 2. Insect grazer production was 348 mg ash‐free dry mass (AFDM) m −2 year −1 during the ...

Amphibians can be important consumers in both aquatic and terrestrial habitats and may represent an important energetic link between the two, particularly in the tropics, where amphibian species richness and abundance are high. In the past 20 years, amphibian populations have declined dramatically around the world; numbers have decreased catastrophically in protected upland sites throughout the neotropics, usually resulting in the disappearance of over 75% of amphibians at a given site, particularly ...

Hydrilla [ Hydrilla verticillata (L.f.) Royle] became established in the Atchafalaya River Basin (ARB) in south central Louisiana during the 1970s, and now dominates the submergent macrophyte community. We examined the potential effects of this shift in macrophyte composition on the distribution of phytomacrofauna by comparing water quality and macroinvertebrate assemblage structure in canopy and sub-canopy habitats at edge and interior locations within hydrilla and native coontail ( Ceratophyllum demersum ...

Abstract Neuroblastoma (NB) and the Ewing sarcoma (ES)/peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) family are pediatric cancers derived from neural crest cells. Although NBs display features of the sympathetic nervous system, ES/PNETs express markers consistent with parasympathetic differentiation. To examine the control of these differentiation markers, we generated NB × ES/PNET somatic cell hybrids. NB-specific markers were suppressed in the hybrids, whereas ES/PNET-specific markers were unaffected. ...

Summary Taxonomic and functional diversity in freshwater habitats is rapidly declining, but we know little about how such declines will ultimately affect ecosystems. Neotropical streams are currently experiencing massive losses of amphibians, with many losses linked to the chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( Bd ). We examined the ecological consequences of the disease‐driven loss of amphibians from a Panamanian stream. We quantified basal resources, macroinvertebrates, N uptake and fluxes ...

Interspecific interactions can play an important role in determining habitat selection and resource use between competing species. We examined interactions between an omnivorous shrimp and a grazing mayfly, two co-dominant taxa found in Puerto Rican headwater streams, to assess how predator presence may influence mayfly resource use and instantaneous growth in a tropical rainforest ecosystem. We conducted a series of behavioral and growth experiments to determine the effects of the freshwater shrimp, ...

Summary Information about temporal patterns of ecological responses to species losses is integral to our understanding of the ultimate effects of declining biodiversity. As part of the Tropical Amphibian Declines in Streams ( TADS ) project, we quantified changes in algal biomass and N cycling in algae in upland Panamanian streams following the widespread decline of larval anurans. Reach‐scale monitoring during and after a catastrophic, disease‐driven amphibian decline showed significant 2.8‐fold increases ( ...

Numerical simulations of the ring/liner contact in which the liner exhibits a periodic texture (pockets) are reported. The mass-conservative Elrod–Adams model is used to treat cavitation, and the dynamics of the ring is considered with a linear mass that corresponds to actual engine compression rings. The results, computed at a Stribeck number of 10−3 and thus in the hydrodynamic lubrication regime, show that the ring profile determines whether pocketing is beneficial or not. For strongly non-conformal ...

Summary Despite the typically high taxonomic and functional diversity of tropical habitats, little is known about the roles of individual consumers in their ecosystem structure and function. We studied the trophic basis of production in a tropical headwater stream by identifying major sources of energy, measuring energy flow through consumers and characterising interactions among trophic levels and functional groups. We examined gut contents of 18 dominant macroinvertebrate and two tadpole taxa ...

Organization of genomic DNA into chromatin aids in the regulation of gene expression by limiting access to transcriptional machinery. The SWI/SNF family of complexes, which are conserved from yeast to humans, are ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling enzymes required for the transcription of a number of genes in yeast. In humans, the gene encoding the BAF47/hSNF5 subunit of the complex, located at 22q11.2, has been found to be mutated in a number of human tumors including rhabdoid, rhabdomyosarcoma, ...

Species losses are predicted to simplify food web structure, and disease‐driven amphibian declines in Central America offer an opportunity to test this prediction. Assessment of insect community composition, combined with gut content analyses, was used to generate periphyton–insect food webs for a Panamanian stream, both pre‐ and post‐amphibian decline. We then used network analysis to assess the effects of amphibian declines on food web structure. Although 48% of consumer taxa, including many insect ...
