Sperm characterization and cryopreservation of the endangered freshwater fish Chirostoma estor (Atheriniformes)

Cryobiology, 2021
The knowledge of the physiology of sperm of an endangered species allows the implantation of reproductive biotechnologies that aim at conservation. The aim of this study was to characterize fresh sperm and evaluate different cryopreservation solutions for sperm in Chirostoma estor. The characterization of Chirostoma estor fresh sperm (n = 22 males) was

“Colonization routes and demographic history of Chirostoma humboldtianum in the central Mexican plateau”

Journal of Fish Biology, 2020
AbstractIn the present study we evaluate the population structure and potential colonization routes of the silverside Chirostoma humboldtianum through approximate Bayesian computations. Six microsatellite loci were amplified in a total of 288 individuals from six different locations covering the complete geographic distribution of the species ...

Silver nanoparticles are lethal to the ciliate model Tetrahymena and safe to the pike silverside Chirostoma estor

Experimental Parasitology, 2020
Ciliate ectoparasites are one of the most important groups of pathogens in fish culture, and the traditional treatments are sometimes harmful to the fish and the environment. Thus, the search for novel compounds that are effective at low concentrations and safe for fish are necessary to optimise treatments in aquaculture.

The complete mitochondrial DNA of the endemic shortfin silverside, Chirostoma humboldtianum (Valenciennes, 1835)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
The shortfin silverside Chirostoma humboldtianum, is an endemic fish from the Mesa Central of Mexico, it is considered the "ancestral" species of the "peces blancos" and plays an important role as a potential species for aquaculture. Here we sequence its mitogenome (Genbank accession number KJ921739), which has a total length of 16,447 bp, and the ...

Low but Significant Subdivision among Populations of Chirostoma grandocule from Lake Patzcuaro, Mexico

Biotropica, 2004
ABSTRACTWe examined morphological and genetic data for Chirostoma grandocule, the most abundant silverside fish from Lake Pátzcuaro, Michoacán, México, as pan of a larger project to clarify the genetic structure of the genus. We analyzed 19 morphometric, 8 meristic, and 11 putative enzyme–coding loci from C.

DIET OF CHIROSTOMA LUCIUS (PISCES: ATHERINOMORPHA): SEASONAL TROPHIC SPECTRUM AND ONTOGENY OF PISCIVORY

Southwestern Naturalist, 2007
Abstract We determined the diet of Chirostoma lucius from Lake Chapala and Guaracha Reservoir in central Mexico by stomach content analysis. Diet consisted primarily of juveniles of small Chirostoma species, as well as cladocerans and copepods. Seasonal change in prey showed high fish consumption in the rainy period, whereas crustacean consumption ...

Early development of the shortfin silverside Chirostoma humboldtianum (Valenciennes, 1835) (Atheriniformes: Atherinopsidae)

Aquaculture, 2006
Abstract The shortfin silverside Chirostoma humboldtianum has been considered for culture in Mexico, but success has been limited by a poor knowledge of its early development. First synthesis of the early development of the shortfin silverside is presented to determine conditions suitable for rearing.

A complete chitinolytic system in the atherinopsid pike silverside Chirostoma estor: gene expression and activities

Journal of Fish Biology, 2016
The expression and digestive activity of pike silverside Chirostoma estor endogenous chitinases were analysed in samples from four life stages: whole eggs; larvae; juvenile intestine and hepatopancreas and adult intestine and hepatopancreas. A chitinase cDNA was cloned and partially sequenced (GenBank accession number: FJ785521).
