Autochthonous and allochthonous lactic acid bacteria: action on the hematological and intestinal microbiota for two species of Astyanax genus

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2022
The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of autochthonous and allochthonous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in two species of lambaris (Astyanax bimaculatus and Astyanax fasciatus), and to investigate the effects on intestinal microbiota and ...

Effect of temperature on the growth performance, haematological properties and histomorphology of gill, intestine and liver tissues in juvenile butter catfish Ompok bimaculatus

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 277-286, August 2022., 2022
A 90‐day aquarium trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of temperature on the growth, blood chemistry and histology of vital organs in juvenile Ompok bimaculatus. Fish reared at 30℃ showed significantly higher growth performances, specific growth rate and haemoglobin and white blood cell counts in comparison to the control group at 25℃. Fish at 30℃

The conundrum of pharyngeal teeth origin: the role of germ layers, pouches, and gill slits

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 1, Page 414-447, February 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT There are several competing hypotheses on tooth origins, with discussions eventually settling in favour of an ‘outside‐in’ scenario, in which internal odontodes (teeth) derived from external odontodes (skin denticles) in jawless vertebrates. The evolution of oral teeth from skin denticles can be intuitively understood from their location at ...

Unraveling the dietary diversity of Neotropical top predators using scat DNA metabarcoding: A case study on the elusive Giant Otter

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 3, Issue 5, Page 889-900, September 2021., 2021
A multi‐marker scat DNA metabarcoding approach was used to examine the dietary diversity of the world's largest and rarest otter, the iconic giant otter (Pteronura brasiliensis) from fecal DNA. The combined use of highly discriminant markers (COI and 12S) and of local reference databases of DNA barcodes offered a high accuracy of taxonomic assignments ...

Atresia of ovarian follicles in fishes, and implications and uses in aquaculture and fisheries

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 44, Issue 9, Page 1271-1291, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Atresia of ovarian follicles, that is the degenerative process of germ cells and their associated somatic cells, is a complex process involving apoptosis, autophagy and heterophagy. Follicular atresia is a normal component of fish oogenesis and it is observed throughout the ovarian cycle, although it is more frequent in regressing ovaries ...

Predation on pirarucu larvae by opportunistic fish species

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 2022
One of the constraints in pirarucu, Arapaima gigas farming is the reproduction in captivity, due to inconsistent number of spawning events per reproductive cycle, thus, unreliable availability of juvenile fish. This is a first-hand report on predation of

Reproductive cycle of the tetra Astyanax bimaculatus (Characiformes: Characidae) collected in Amazonian streams

open access: yesZygote, 2019
SummaryA histological characterization of gonadal development in the tetra Astyanax bimaculatus was performed, aimed at determining its reproductive cycle in streams localized inside the Amazonian forest. Collections were carried out monthly from August 2017 to July 2018 at the Zoobotânica Foundation of Marabá, PA.

Isozymes of malate-and lactate dehydrogenase of Astyanax bimaculatus as biomarkers of environmental impact [PDF]

open access: yesAmbiente e Agua - An Interdisciplinary Journal of Applied Science, 2019
 The activity of certain isozymes may serve as biomarkers of specific physiological conditions of living organisms. The present work aimed to evaluate malate dehydrogenase (MDH) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) isozymes from the hepatic, branchial and renal tissues of the fish Astyanax bimaculatus as biochemical markers of environmental changes in the ...
