DNA fingerprinting as a means for tracing the source of E. coli contamination

Principal Investigator: Charles Tseng
Affiliation: Purdue University Calumet
Initiation Date: 2000
  • To test the hypothesis that human and animal E. coli strains are distinguishable
  • To screen and select appropriate primers
  • To build a small RAPD (random amplied polymorphic DNA) fingerprint database for E. coli from human and nonhuman sources
  • To identify landmark DNA patterns
  • To determine the sensitivity and applicability of this technology

Consequences of Round Goby Invasion for Littoral Zone Communities: Effects on Sculpin and Benthic Invertebrates Project

Principal Investigator: Martin Berg
Affiliation: Loyola University Chicago
Initiation Date: 2000
  • Examine diets of sympatric and allopatric populations of mottled sculpins and round gobies
  • Determine the relationship between mottled sculpin and round goby feeding on benthic invertebrate
    communities
  • Assess the role of round gobies as trophic replacements for mottled sculpins

Zebra Mussels, Round Gobies, and Eurasian Ruffe: Predicting Ecological Impacts of the “Exotic Triad” to Improve Control Project

Principal Investigator: Gary Lamberti
Affiliation: University of Notre Dame
Initiation Date: 2000
  • Determine whether ruffe and gobies display overlap in use of habitat and food and thus may compete for benthic resources
  • Determine whether zebra mussels will modify ruffe – goby interactions directly by serving as a major food resource for gobies or indirectly by increasing benthic heterogeneity and associated invertebrate production,
  • Determine how yellow perch will respond to coexistence with ruffe and gobies in the presence or absence of zebra mussels

The development of molecular and biochemical tools to assess changes in yellow perch (Perca flavescens) growth hormone

Principal Investigator: Frederick Goetz
Affiliation: University of Notre Dame
Initiation Date: 2000
  • Obtain the full-length perch growth hormone (GH) cDNA.
  • Clone and express the yellow perch GH mRNA in a protein expression system.
  • Assay the recombinant perch GH for growth promoting activity in juvenile perch.
  • Produce antibodies to the recombinant perch GH.
