Primers have been isolated that are diagnostic for the detection of the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). The primers are based on a new portion of the WSSV genome and may be used in primer directed amplification or nucleic acid hybridization assay methods.

Sequences diagnostic for shrimp pathogens

Primers have been isolated that are diagnostic for the detection of. The primers are based on a portion of theLuxR gene and may be used in primer directed amplification or nucleic acid hybridization assay methods.

Primers have been isolated that are diagnostic for the detection of the taura syndrome virus (TSV). The primers are based on a new portion of the TSV genome and may be used in primer directed amplification or nucleic acid hybridization assay methods.

Primers have been isolated that are diagnostic for the detection of the infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necorsis virus (IHHNV). The primers are based on a new portion of the IHHNV genome and may be used in primer directed amplification or nucleic acid hybridization assay methods.

This invention relates to a method for utilizing less purified starch in fermentation processes. One example is a recombinantcontaining a exogenous extracellular isoamylase activity that is capable of utilizing small oligomers containing (1,6) linkages (including but not limited to isomaltose and panose) in fermentations to produce useful products. The invention is useful in large-scale industrial biofermentations by reducing the cost of the substrate carbohydrate.

Unique bacterial strains and identifying 16S rDNA sequences have been isolated from activated wastewater sludge. The 16S rDNA sequences are diagnostic for organisms which are key to the health of activated sludge wastewater systems.

Nucleic acid fragments for the identification of bacteria in industrial wastewater bioreactors

A gene has been isolated from asp. encoding an aldoxime dehydratase enzyme useful for the conversion of aldoxime substrates to nitrilases and other downstream intermediates. The gene has been cloned into a recombinant host and expressed.

A 10 kb gene cluster has been isolated from SC1 comprising genes encoding enzymes useful for the synthesis of dodecanoic diacid from cyclododecanone and other cyclic intermediates. The six specific open reading frames have been identified that are associated with dodecanoic diacid biosynthesis. In addition to the expected substrates the enzymes of the instant invention have moderate specificity for C11-C15 compounds.
