HELMINTH PARASITES OF THE TROPICAL GAR, ATRACTOSTEUS TROPICUS GILL, FROM TABASCO, MEXICO

Journal of Parasitology, 2004
A total of 8 helminth species were recorded in an examination of 43 tropical gar, Atractosteus tropicus Gill, collected at the Pantanos de Centla Biosphere Reserve, Tabasco, Mexico. The parasite species included 1 adult trematode, 3 metacercariae, 1 cestode, 1 adult nematode, and 2 nematode larvae. Six of these 8 species were rare, with low prevalence (

Digestive enzymatic activity on Tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) larvae fed different diets

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 2011
Digestive enzymatic activity and growth performance on tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) larvae fed Artemia nauplii (LF), frozen adult Artemia (AB), an artificial diet (AF) with 46% protein and 16% lipids and a starvation group (SG) from first feeding (5 days after hatching-5 DAH) to 34 DAH were studied.

Trypsin gene expression in adults and larvae of tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 2019
Trypsin gene (try) expression levels were quantified in different organs of wild and captive tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) adults, and changes in expression during initial ontogeny of the species were determined. RNA was extracted from the pancreas, and cDNA was synthesized and later amplified by endpoint PCR using oligonucleotides designed from

The larval attachment organ of the tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus Gill, 1863 (Lepisosteiformes: Lepisosteidae)

Journal of Fish Biology, 2021
AbstractLarval attachment organs (LAOs) are unicellular or multicellular organs that allow larvae to adhere to a substrate before yolk‐sac absorption and the free‐swimming stage. This study documents the LAO of tropical gar, Atractosteus tropicus, using a combination of scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy.

Hypoxia- and hyperoxia-related gene expression dynamics during developmental critical windows of the tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2022
Aquatic hypoxia is both a naturally-occurring and anthropogenically-generated event. Fish species have evolved different adaptations to cope with hypoxic environments, including gill modifications and air breathing. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms involved in the respiration of embryonic and larval fishes during critical windows

Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) distribution in the brain of the ancient fish Atractosteus tropicus (Holostei, Lepisosteiformes)

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2020
The Holostei group occupies a critical phylogenetic position as the sister group of the Teleostei. However, little is known about holostean pituitary anatomy or brain distribution of important reproductive neuropeptides, such as the gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH).

Development of digestive tract and enzyme activities during the early ontogeny of the tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015
Changes in digestive enzyme activity and histology were studied in Atractosteus tropicus embryos, larvae and juvenile periods. Alkaline protease, chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidase A, lipase and α-amylase were detected in all periods and gradually increased until reaching the maximum peak in juveniles; meanwhile, acid protease was first detected at 5 days ...
