Habitat Preferences and Short‐Term Dynamics of Alien Fishes Revealed by Environmental DNA in River Floodplains

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Based on eDNA metabarcoding, the study revealed habitat‐use patterns and the temporal dynamics of non‐native fish species in two Danubian floodplains.

Organization and Distribution of Repetitive DNA Classes in the Cichla kelberi and Cichla piquiti Genome

open access: yesCYTOLOGIA, 2017
The family Cichlidae is considered a non-Ostariophysi freshwater fish family with diverse and geographical distribution wide in the world; nevertheless there is scarce cytogenetic information for the group. Accordingly, we aim to characterize Cichla kelberi and Cichla piquiti specimens by conventional cytogenetic (Giemsa, Ag-NOR, Banding C) and cyto ...
