Innovative molecular approach to the identification of Colossoma macropomum and its hybrids [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2012 Tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) is the fish species most commonly raised in the Brazilian fish farms. The species is highly adaptable to captive conditions, and is both fast-growing and relatively fecund. In recent years, artificial breeding has produced hybrids with Characiform species, known as "Tambacu" and "Tambatinga".

Severe damages caused by Malathion exposure in Colossoma macropomum
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2020 The increase in pesticide use in response to agricultural demands poses a risk to non-target organisms, including fish. Integrated analysis of biochemical, histopathological and genetic parameters in fish exposed to Malathion insecticide provide information on the toxicity mechanisms of this pesticide, which is classified as a probable carcinogen for ...

Growing in the Dark Warmth: The Case of Amazonian Fish Colossoma macropomum [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 Photoperiod is considered an important synchronizer of biological activities and endocrine pathways, including growth. As ectotherms, fish have many physiological functions controlled by the photoperiod. However, the combined effects of photoperiod and temperature should be clarified, particularly for tropical fish living near their upper thermal limit,

Estimation of genetic parameters for weight and length gains in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum)
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2023 Abstract The goal of this study was to determine the genetic parameters for growth traits in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) fish of similar age and weight. The data set included monthly measurements of body weight and length from120 fish for a year (1,440 measurements). The study found that weight gain had a heritability estimate of 0.01, while length

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Forest cover is positively associated with fish biomass and fisheries yield in the Amazon River floodplain, and many species enter flooded forests to feed, spawn, or seek refuge from predation. Floating macrophyte beds, known as floating meadows, in Amazon floodplains support high fish diversity and serve as nursery habitat for many fishes of ...
