Bento Search

Search all of LSU Libraries in one place. This includes the catalog, research guides, scholarly repository, website, etc.

What does bento search?

Bento searches all of the available resources at LSU Libraries. Please note that while Discovery does include Catalog results, the dedicated Catalog search can still be accessed.

Discovery
Searches our local print and electronic materials including e-books, journal articles, peer-reviewed articles, news, and magazines.
Research Guides
Searches the full-text of research guides published by LSU Libraries. A research guide is a curated, librarian‑built document that pulls together the most important resources for a topic, course, or assignment. It’s designed to help students, faculty, and researchers quickly find high‑quality, relevant information without having to sift through everything on their own.
Scholarly Repository
Searches the full-text of the Scholarly Repository. The LSU Scholarly Repository collects, preserves, publishes, and makes openly accessible the research and scholarship contributed by LSU faculty, staff, students, and units. Research and scholarly archived materials can include articles, monographs, books, theses & dissertations, audio-visual presentations, working papers, technical reports, conference proceedings, special collections, data, and publicly funded research.

First morphological and molecular characterization of cystacanths of Corynosoma evae Zdzitowiecki, 1984 (Acanthocephala: Polymorphidae) from Antarctic teleost fishes
Cystacanths of the polymorphid acanthocephalan Corynosoma evae Zdzitowiecki, 1984 were examined and redescribed based on newly collected material from teleost fishes from coastal waters of the Galindez Island (Argentine Islands, West Antarctica). Detailed morphological data, measurements and photomicrographs, including scanning electron microscopy images, are presented. Our morphological and morphometrical analyses confirmed the validity of C. evae; however, three key characteristics of taxonomic importance (i.e., the number of rows of hooks on the proboscis, and the number and arrangement of genital spines in males) showed significant morphological variability. In addition, a genital spine in the posterior body end of a female is reported for the first time. This study provides the first sequences of the small and large subunits nuclear ribosomal RNA genes (SSU and LSU) and the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) for C. evae. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analyses of the SSU + LSU + cox1 and the cox1 datasets placed C. evae as a sister lineage to a clade formed by C. validum Van Cleave, 1953 and C. villosum Van Cleave, 1953, although with low support. In contrast, the position of C. evae in the phylogenetic analysis of the SSU + LSU dataset remained unresolved. Finally, C. arctocephali Zdzitowiecki, 1984 from pinnipeds from the subantarctic and Antarctic regions is considered as a valid species.
Differential regulation of chloroplast gene expression in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii during photoacclimation: light stress transiently suppresses synthesis of the Rubisco LSU protein while enhancing synthesis of the PS II D1 protein
Transfer of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells grown photoautotrophically in low light to higher light intensities has a dramatic transient effect on the differential expression of the two major chloroplast encoded photosynthetic proteins. Synthesis of the D1 protein of Photosystem II increases more than 10-fold during the first six hours in high light (HL), whereas synthesis of the large subunit (LSU) of Rubisco drops dramatically within 15 min and only gradually resumes at about 6 h. Synthesis of the chloroplast-encoded ATP synthaseβ subunit, the nuclear-encoded Rubisco small subunit and the nuclear-encoded β-tubulin is not noticeably affected. Up regulation of psbA mRNA translation accounts for a substantial fraction of the increased D1 synthesis, since accumulation of psbA mRNA increases 4.2- and 6.3-fold less than D1 synthesis at 6 and 18 h in HL. Down-regulation of LSU synthesis is not correlated with a reduction in the steady-state level of the rbcL transcript. Primer extension mapping of the 5' ends of the rbcL mRNAs reveals transcripts with start points located at -93 and -186 relative to the first translated ATG. Transfer of low light (LL)-grown cells to HL temporarily decreases the ratio of the -93 to -186 transcripts, but this ratio normalizes after 6 h in HL, coincident with the recovery in the synthesis of LSU. These several distinct effects of temporary light stress were correlated with a rapid, sustained increase in the reduction state of QA, a transient decline in photosynthetic efficiency, a less rapid drop in total chlorophyll content and a delay in cell division.
