First Evidence of Microplastic Contamination in Antarctic Fish (Actinopterygii, Perciformes)

open access: yesWater, 2022
Microplastic (MP) pollution in Antarctica is a hot topic that has gained increasing attention in recent years. However, information regarding MP pollution in Antarctic fishes is currently very limited. The present study provides the first evidence of the occurrence and characteristics of MPs in species from five families of the order Perciformes, from ...

Late Jurassic jaw bones of Halecomorph fish (Actinopterygii: Halecomorphi) studied with X-ray microcomputed tomography [PDF]

open access: yesPalaeontologia Electronica, 2015
New finds of Halecomorphi fish remains from Late Jurassic limestones of Owadow-Brzezinki (Poland) are investigated using X-ray microcomputed tomography (XMT) revealing details of jaw bones for actinopterygian fish histology. Three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction allows for correct taxonomical verification.

Hierarchical Interaction between Food Diversity and Competition in Brackish Fish Species in South Korea

open access: yesFishes, 2023
Information about the food sources for fish is important not only for predation and food competition, but also for the direct impact on organism interactions, relationships, and biodiversity within aquatic ecosystems.

The early diversification of ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii): hypotheses, challenges and future prospects

open access: yesBiological Reviews, 2022
ABSTRACTActinopterygii makes up half of living vertebrate diversity, and study of fossil members during their Palaeozoic rise to dominance has a long history of descriptive work. Although research interest into Palaeozoic actinopterygians has increased in recent years, broader patterns of diversity and diversity dynamics remain critically understudied.

Preferential accumulation of sex and Bs chromosomes in biarmed karyotypes by meiotic drive and rates of chromosomal changes in fishes

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2014
Mechanisms of accumulation based on typical centromeric drive or of chromosomes carrying pericentric inversions are adjusted to the general karyotype differentiation in the principal Actinopterygii orders. Here, we show that meiotic drive in fish is also
