Neuroanatomical diversity in Teleocichla with new volumetric and histological insights into the encephalon of Teleocichla monogramma Kullander 1988. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract Teleocichla comprises small cichlids that inhabit the rapid streams of Amazonian rivers; however, there has been limited research on their encephalon morphology. This study examined the neuroanatomy of four species, focusing on volumetric measurements of their encephalon subregions, and providing a histological description of the encephalon of

Cichlids and stingrays can add and subtract ‘one’ in the number space from one to five
Scientific Reports, 2022 The numerical understanding of cichlids and stingrays was examined regarding addition and subtraction abilities within the number space of one to five. Experiments were conducted as two-alternative forced-choice experiments, using a delayed matching to ...

Cichlid genome modification - Malawi cichlids v1
, 2023 Here we provide a microinjection protocol for the modification of cichlid fish via CRISPR or transgenesis. This is our forked version of the protocol provided by Scott Juntti (https://www.protocols.io/view/cichlid-genome-modification-cj5wuq7e), modified for our Lake Malawi cichlid species for both NHEJ knock-outs and HDR knock-ins These protocols ...
