Progression of Infection and Tumor Development in Damselfish
Entry ID:
RSMAS_MSC001a
Summary
Abstract:
The bicolor damselfish (Stegastes partitus) is a tropical marine telost
naturally affected by multiple neurofibromas and chromatophoromas on South Florida reefs. Damselfish neurofibromatosis is a transmissible disease causes by a subcellular agent. Devleopment of tumors is associated with the appearance of a series of extrachromosomal DNAs ranging in size from 1.2 to 7 kb that appear to be the ...  Geographic Coverage
