Dieta de Astyanax bimaculatus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Characiformes, Characidae), da área de influência do reservatório de Corumbá, Estado de Goiás, Brasil

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2008
Com o objetivo de estudar a alimentação de Astyanax bimaculatus realizaram-se-se, no período de março de 1996 a fevereiro de 1997, amostragens mensais na área de influência do reservatório de Corumbá, agrupadas neste trabalho em três biótopos: Corumbá ...

Immunohistochemical, morphological and histometrical analyses of follicular development in Astyanax bimaculatus (Teleostei: Characidae) exposed to an organochlorine insecticide

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2017
Thiodan® is an organochlorine insecticide used in agriculture that can reach aquatic ecosystems where it can affect fish reproduction. This research aimed to evaluate follicular development and the expression of integrin β1, collagen type IV and caspase 3 by morphological, histometrical and immunohistochemical analyses of Astyanax bimaculatus exposed ...

Hydrological Connectivity Enhances Fish Biodiversity in Amazonian Mining Ponds: Insights From eDNA and Traditional Sampling. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol
ABSTRACT Artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) expansion in the Madre de Dios region of the Peruvian Amazon has transformed primary forests into a novel wetland complex of thousands of abandoned mining ponds. Despite their ecological relevance, post‐mining recovery of these systems remains understudied, particularly regarding fish biodiversity ...

Competition from sea to mountain: Interactions and aggregation in low-diversity monogenean and endohelminth communities in twospot livebearer Pseudoxiphophorus bimaculatus (Teleostei: Poeciliidae) populations in a neotropical river. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2020
The results of this work suggest that interspecific competition can occur in species‐poor, nonsaturated communities among specialist dominant species. Our analyses suggest also that aggregation is an important factor to determine local richness of parasites in fish populations and that intraspecific aggregation allows the coexistence of species in the ...

Morphological and temporal variation in early embryogenesis contributes to species divergence in Malawi cichlid fishes

open access: yesEvolution &Development, Volume 25, Issue 2, Page 170-193, March 2023., 2023
Lake Malawi cichlids harbor a spectacular intra‐ and interspecific morphological diversity yet understanding of how early in ontogeny species‐specific phenotypes emerge remains limited. A comparative analysis of early development of three divergent Malawi cichlids reveals anatomical and timing differences during embryogenesis and indicates divergence ...

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 ...
