Electric organ discharge diversification in mormyrid weakly electric fish is associated with differential expression of voltage-gated ion channel genes

Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 2017
In mormyrid weakly electric fish, the electric organ discharge (EOD) is used for species recognition, orientation and prey localization. Produced in the muscle-derived adult electric organ, the EOD exhibits a wide diversity across species in both ...

Comparative histology of the adult electric organ among four species of the genus Campylomormyrus (Teleostei: Mormyridae) [PDF]

Journal of Comparative Physiology, 2015
The electric organ (EO) of weakly electric mormyrids consists of flat, disk-shaped electrocytes with distinct anterior and posterior faces. There are multiple species-characteristic patterns in the geometry of the electrocytes and their innervation.

De novo assembly and characterization of the skeletal muscle and electric organ transcriptomes of the African weakly electric fish Campylomormyrus compressirostris (Mormyridae, Teleostei)

Molecular Ecology Resources, 2014
African weakly electric-fishes (Mormyridae) underwent an outstanding adaptive radiation (about 200 species), putatively owing to their ability to communicate through species-specific weak electric signals.

Ontogeny of the electric organ discharge and the electric organ in the weakly electric pulse fish Brachyhypopomus pinnicaudatus (Hypopomidae, Gymnotiformes)

Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1997
I recorded the electric organ discharges (EODs) of 331 immature Brachyhypopomus pinnicaudatus 6-88 mm long. Larvae produced head-positive pulses 1.3 ms long at 7 mm (6 days) and added a second, small head-negative phase at 12 mm. Both phases shortened duration and increased amplitude during growth.

Electrolocation with an electric organ discharge waveform for biomimetic application

Adaptive Behavior, 2011
Weakly electric fish use electric organ discharge (EOD) and their electroreceptors to identify prey, explore their surroundings, and communicate with other members of the same species. They are specialized in active electrolocation using a self-generated

Development and regeneration of the electric organ

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1999
ABSTRACT The electric organ has evolved independently from muscle in at least six lineages of fish. How does a differentiated muscle cell change its fate to become an electrocyte? Is the process by which this occurs similar in different lineages?

Phosphate metabolism in the electric organ

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 1967
Abstract 1. The concentrations of ATP, ADP, AMP, creatine, creatine phosphate and P i were determined in slices of the main organ of Electrophorus electricus . At rest, they were 0.83, 0.080, 0.012, 18.2, 19.3 and 8.28 μmoles/g wet tissue, respectively. 2.
