Evidence of a landlocked reproducing population of the marine pejerrey
AbstractIn South America, the order Atheriniformes includes the monophyletic genusOdontestheswith 20 species that inhabit freshwater, estuarine and coastal environments. PejerreyOdontesthes argentinensisis widely distributed in coastal and estuarine areas of the Atlantic Ocean and is known to foray into estuaries of river systems, particularly in ...

Post-mortem Fertilizing Capacity of Spermatozoid Chirostoma jordani (Atheriniformes: Atherinopsidae)
Post-mortem fertilization is considered a technique in which semen is extracted from a dead male to fertilize the egg of a living female. Therefore, this technique can be an excellent option in the face of the loss of biodiversity of multiple animal species. The objective of this research is to implement post-mortem assisted reproduction in the charal,

Sex determination in fish: Odontesthes spp. (Atherinopsidae) as experimental models [PDF]
The sex of the offspring is the result of a unique process leading, in a binary fate, to the development of male or female characteristics. In this context, the aim of the present work is to present atherinopsid fish as excellent models to study sex ...

The structural and ultrastructural features of gonads from endemic Mexican fish have received scarce attention. This study describes the histological and ultrastructural characteristics of the oocyte in Chirostoma humboldtianum. The ovary is asynchronic, and as such, most phases of oocyte development are found in the same ovary. The complete process of

Within its genus, Chirostoma humboldtianum is one of the species with the widest distribution, inhabiting lake and pond environments along the Lerma-Santiago basin in the Mexican Plateau. Although the species is of great ichthyological, economic, and cultural relevance, factors related to human activity such as habitat loss, pollution, overfishing, and
