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 ...

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum, G. Cuvier 1818) thrives both in the ion‐poor waters of the Amazon and in commercial aquaculture. In both, environmental conditions can be harsh due to low ion levels, occasional high salt challenges (in aquaculture), low pH, extreme PO2 levels (hypoxia and hyperoxia), high PCO2 levels (hypercapnia), high ...

Aquaculture International, 2022 Abstract Intensive fish farming with inadequate management can imbalance the fish-pathogen-environment relationship, culminating in diseases outbreaks. In the case of tambaqui Colossoma macropomum farming, it may be affected by acanthocephalosis, a parasitic infection without a specific and safe treatment yet. The objective of this study was to
