Complete mitochondrial genome of 10 anemonefishes belonging to Amphiprion and Premnas

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Anemonefish are widely distributed in tropical areas with phenotypic color variation often observed in the same species. Complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of 10 anemonefishes belonging to Amphiprion and Premnas were determined to support ...

Mitochondrial genomic variation and validation of cytochrome b as a species-level marker in anemonefish (Amphiprioninae) [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Accurate species identification within the anemonefish subfamily (Amphiprioninae) is essential for ecological research, biodiversity conservation, and regulation of the ornamental fish trade.

Effect of ocean acidification on otolith development in larvae of a tropical marine fish [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2011
Calcification in many invertebrate species is predicted to decline due to ocean acidification. The potential effects of elevated CO₂ and reduced carbonate saturation state on other species, such as fish, are less well understood ...

Analysis of the coding sequences of clownfish reveals molecular convergence in the evolution of lifespan

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Standard evolutionary theories of aging postulate that reduced extrinsic mortality leads to evolution of longevity. Clownfishes of the genus Amphiprion live in a symbiotic relationship with sea anemones that provide protection from predators ...

Effects of elevated CO2 on predator avoidance behaviour by reef fishes is not altered by experimental test water [PDF]

PeerJ, 2016
Pioneering studies into the effects of elevated CO2 on the behaviour of reef fishes often tested high-CO2 reared fish using control water in the test arena.

Expanding our understanding of the trade in marine aquarium animals [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
The trade of live marine animals for home and public aquaria has grown into a major global industry. Millions of marine fishes and invertebrates are removed from coral reefs and associated habitats each year.

The use anesthetic agents to promote welfare in anemonefish aquaculture: Case study to handling and long-distance transport

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2014
During their life cycle as farmed animals, there are several situations in which fish are subjected to handling and confinement. Netting, weighing, sorting, vaccination, transport and, at the end, slaughter are frequent events under farming conditions ...

Persistence of self‐recruitment and patterns of larval connectivity in a marine protected area network

Ecology and Evolution, 2012
The use of marine protected area (MPA) networks to sustain fisheries and conserve biodiversity is predicated on two critical yet rarely tested assumptions.

Natural rarity places clownfish colour morphs at risk of targeted and opportunistic exploitation in a marine aquarium fishery

Aquatic Living Resources, 2018
As fish stocks become depleted, exploitation eventually fails to be cost-efficient. However, species or morphs of species can suffer from continual exploitation if their rarity results in increased value, justifying the cost-efficiency of targeted or ...

Genetic characterization of seven clownfish species from the Jatinegara ornamental fish market using 16S rRNA DNA barcoding

Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research
Clownfish (Amphiprion spp.) are among Indonesia’s most valuable marine ornamental fishes, yet populations are declining due to illegal and destructive fishing. Reliable species identification is essential for conservation and management.
