AbstractDue to recent population declines in tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus), a greater understanding of its population structure is needed. A key step in gaining this understanding is the development of microsatellite loci for use in this species. For this purpose, 33 microsatellite loci from alligator gar (A.

Use of Potato Starch in Diets of Tropical Gar (Atractosteus tropicus, Gill 1863) Larvae [PDF]
Tropical gar, Atractosteus tropicus, is a carnivorous fish species from Southern México with high value and acceptance in local markets. Therefore, the present study aims to spare proteins in diets for larviculture of this species. An experiment was performed using three different experimental diets with increasing carbohydrate levels based on potato ...

Effect of β-Glucans in Diets on Growth, Survival, Digestive Enzyme Activity, and Immune System and Intestinal Barrier Gene Expression for Tropical Gar (Atractosteus tropicus) Juveniles [PDF]
The application of β-1,3/1,6-glucan derived from yeast at five concentrations (0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0%) in formulated diets was evaluated in juveniles for its effects on the growth, survival, digestive enzymatic activity, and expression of ...

Dietary live yeast (Debaryomyces hansenii) provides no advantages in tropical gar, Atractosteus tropicus (Actinopterygii: Lepisosteiformes: Lepisosteidae), juvenile aquaculture [PDF]
Tropical gar, Atractosteus tropicus Gill, 1863, is an ancient freshwater fish that is commercially cultivated in southern Mexico. Currently, there is a specific diet for its culture; however, the addition of probiotics has not been investigated.
