Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Hyphessobrycon herbertaxelrodi (Characiformes, Characidae) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Hyphessobrycon herbertaxelrodi is presented, and we also discussed its mitochondrial characteristics. The full length of the mitochondrial genome was 17,417 bp, including 13 protein coding genes (PCGs),

B Chromosomes in Psalidodon scabripinnis (Characiformes, Characidae) Species Complex
Simple Summary For more than a century, B chromosomes have been investigated in several eukaryotic species. These supernumerary genomic elements behave as parasites or provide fitness benefits to the hosts. They are mostly composed of repetitive DNA, but

Ecological Factors and Diversification among Neotropical Characiforms [PDF]
Morphological and DNA sequence data has been used to propose hypotheses of relationships within the Characiformes with minimal comparative discussion of causes underpinning the major intraordinal diversification patterns.

Characterization of Mitochondrial Genomes and Evolutionary Relationships in Two <i>Moenkhausia</i> (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae). [PDF]
This study successfully decoded the complete mitochondrial genomes of two Moenkhausia species, with total lengths of 16,439 and 16,461 bp, respectively. This study enhances genomic resources for Acestrorhamphidae and provides a foundation for investigating evolutionary mechanisms and developing molecular markers.

Description of Encephalon Morphology of Nile Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Perciformes: Cichlidae) From Brazil. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a cichlid species native to Africa and is widely farmed in tropical and subtropical regions around the world, making it one of the most commercially important aquaculture species. Despite its significance, there is still a lack of detailed anatomical descriptions of its brain.

Weight-Length Ratio of Piranhas <i>Serrasalmus</i> (Characiformes, Serrasalmidae) in Bolivia: Relationships to Molecular Divergence and Maximum Size? [PDF]
This study presents WLRs of nine piranha or palometa fish species of genus Serrasalmus present in the Amazon and La Plata basins of Bolivia and compares differences with genetic divergence (mtDNA COI locus) and the observed maximum size. All species showed an exponential (power type) growth pattern, and all WLRs were significantly different among all ...
