Regulation of the amh gene promoter activity by SF-1 in sex-reversing Cheilinus undulatus and its adaptive evolution [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground The humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus) is a protogynous hermaphroditic fish and a top predator in coral reef ecosystems. However, overfishing has led to a significant decline in its population, making it challenging to study its adaptive ...

Short-wavelength-sensitive 1 (<i>SWS1</i>) opsin gene duplications and parallel visual pigment tuning support ultraviolet communication in damselfishes (Pomacentridae). [PDF]
Ecol EvolDuplication and tuning of the UV‐sensitive SWS1 opsin in damselfishes as key evolutionary innovation. Abstract Damselfishes (Pomacentridae) are one of the most behaviourally diverse, colourful and species‐rich reef fish families. One remarkable characteristic of damselfishes is their communication in ultraviolet (UV) light.

Damsels in Disguise: Development of Ultraviolet Sensitivity and Colour Patterns in Damselfishes (Pomacentridae). [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Damselfishes (Pomacentridae) are widespread and highly abundant on tropical coral reefs. They exhibit diverse body colouration within and between the ~250 species and across ontogenetic stages. In addition to human‐visible colours (i.e., 400–700 nm), most adult damselfishes reflect ultraviolet (UV, 300–400 nm) colour patches.

Mitochondrial DNA genomes organization and phylogenetic relationships analysis of eight anemonefishes (pomacentridae: amphiprioninae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Anemonefishes (Pomacentridae Amphiprioninae) are a group of 30 valid coral reef fish species with their phylogenetic relationships still under debate. The eight available mitogenomes of anemonefishes were used to reconstruct the molecular phylogenetic ...

Designer clown fishes: Unraveling the ambiguities
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The global marine ornamental fish trade is dominated by wild collected fishes, and the contribution from hatchery production is less than 10% of the total.

Chemical alarm cues are conserved within the coral reef fish family Pomacentridae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Fishes are known to use chemical alarm cues from both conspecifics and heterospecifics to assess local predation risks and enhance predator detection. Yet it is unknown how recognition of heterospecific cues arises for coral reef fishes. Here, we test if

The Next Frontier in Understanding the Evolution of Coral Reef Fish Societies
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Research on sociality in marine fishes is a vibrant field that is providing new insights into social evolution more generally. Here, we review the past two decades of research, identifying knowledge gaps and new directions.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 A fundamental question of evolutionary biology is, why are some animals conspicuously colored? This question may be addressed from both a proximate (genetic and ontogenetic) and ultimate (adaptive value and evolutionary origins) perspective, and ...
