Microtomographic investigation of a large corpus of cichlids. [PDF]
, 2023 A large collection of cichlids (N = 133) from Lake Victoria in Africa, with total lengths ranging from 6 to 18 cm was nondestructively imaged using micro-computed tomography.

Microsatellites Cross-Species Amplification across Some African Cichlids [PDF]
, 2012 The transfer of the genomic resources developed in the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, to other Tilapiines sensu lato and African cichlid would provide new possibilities to study this amazing group from genetics, ecology, evolution, aquaculture, and

Cichlids as a Model System for Studying Social Behaviour and Evolution
, 2021 The complex social behaviour of cichlids has fascinated scientists and hobbyists alike for almost 100 years. In this chapter, we review the breadth and complexity of cichlid behaviour, particularly with respect to social interactions. We present the case

Comparative ecology and phylogeography in east African cichild fishes [PDF]
, 2014 Since almost two decades speciation outbursts, so-called adaptive radiations, have been put forward as a major reason for a large portion of the bio-diversity we see today.

Evolutionary divergence of 3’ UTRs in cichlid fishes
BMC Genomics, 2018 Background Post-transcriptional regulation is crucial for the control of eukaryotic gene expression and might contribute to adaptive divergence. The three prime untranslated regions (3’ UTRs), that are located downstream of protein-coding sequences, play

Evolutionary genetics of naturally and sexually selected traits in cichlid fishes [PDF]
, 2014 In my PhD thesis I use cichlid fishes as model system to study the evolutionary genetics of naturally and sexually selected traits. Several traits of cichlid fishes such as; the pharyngeal jaw apparatus, haplochromine maternal mouthbrooding, egg-spots ...

The opsin genes of amazonian cichlids [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2017 AbstractVision is a critical sense for organismal survival with visual sensitivities strongly shaped by the environment. Some freshwater fishes with a Gondwanan origin are distributed in both South American rivers including the Amazon and African rivers and lakes. These different habitats likely required adaptations to murky and clear environments.

Elaboration, development, and installation of the first animal skin bank in Brazil for the treatment of burns and wounds [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica, 2019 Introduction: The production and distribution of human skin by Brazilian skin banks is insufficient to meet the country's demand, supplying less than 1% of the need for treating burn victims.
