A Duplicated, Truncated amh Gene Is Involved in Male Sex Determination in an Old World Silverside [PDF]

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
A master sex-determining gene, the Y chromosome-linked anti-Müllerian hormone (amhy) gene, has been described in two New World atheriniform species but little is known on the distribution, evolution, and function(s) of this gene in other Atheriniformes ...

Long-Term Changes in the Winter Diet of Common Dolphins Reflects Ecological Shifts and Bycatch Dynamics in the Bay of Biscay. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
First study investigating temporal changes in the diet of the common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) in the Bay of Biscay between 1999 and 2019, we found that the diet of the common dolphin remained mainly composed of small energy‐rich fish species. However, we observed a shift in minor prey from upper slopes habitats to coastal waters reflecting a shift ...

Aquatic eDNA outperforms sedimentary eDNA for the detection of estuarine fish communities in subtropical coastal vegetated ecosystems. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Fish Biol
Abstract In South Africa, mangrove forests and seagrass meadows often co‐occur in estuarine systems and in combination host rich, often endemic biodiversity. There is an urgent need to explore community diversity in coastal vegetated ecosystems, given the degrading effects of climate change and anthropogenic pressures.

Occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma in wild pejerrey Odontesthes bonariensis (Teleostei, Atherinidae)

open access: yesBulletin of The European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2022
In non-infectious diseases in fish, neoplasms are of great interest to pathologists because of their similarity to those found in other vertebrates, some of which are generated by similar carcinogens, such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), induced by ...

Spatio-temporal assessment of nearshore fish communities in a temperate estuary using functional and community metrics for restoration and management. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Fish Biol
Abstract Understanding the structure and function of estuarine fish communities is essential for guiding ecosystem‐based management and restoration. This study investigated long‐term patterns in fish community composition, abundance, species richness and estuarine use across 15 nearshore sites within three estuaries and the Isle of Wight, located in ...

The invasive twospot livebearer's biology, and its current and potential global distribution

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 103, Issue 5, Page 854-863, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Poeciliids are widely recognized as successful invaders, possessing traits associated with invasion success. Native to Central America and south‐eastern Mexico, the twospot livebearer (Pseudoxiphophorus bimaculatus) is a species recently recognized as invasive in both Central and northern Mexico.
