Evolution and diversity of fish genomes
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2003The ray-finned fishes ('fishes') vary widely in genome size, morphology and adaptations. Teleosts, which comprise approximately 23600 species, constitute >99% of living fishes. The radiation of teleosts has been attributed to a genome duplication event, which is proposed to have occurred in an ancient teleost.

Visual system diversity in coral reef fishes
Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2020Coral reefs are one of the most species rich and colourful habitats on earth and for many coral reef teleosts, vision is central to their survival and reproduction. The diversity of reef fish visual systems arises from variations in ocular and retinal anatomy, neural processing and, perhaps most easily revealed by, the peak spectral absorbance of ...

Fish Diversion in Hydropower Intake
Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 1987Hydraulic model studies were conducted to develop a fish screening system to be used in the turbine intakes of Wanapum Development and Priest Rapids Development on the Columbia River, Washington. The system studied utilized a mechanical screen, installed through one of the gate wells, to produce a flow pattern that would deflect downstream migrating ...

When we try to improve the welfare of fish in aquaculture, public and private aquaria, and experimental research we need to take into account how fish live in their natural environments. There is enormous diversity in the world of fishes. Each species has adapted to specific habitats and co-existing species, with their anatomical, physiological, and ...

Diversity of Fish-Associated Flavobacteria of Michigan
Journal of Aquatic Animal Health, 2013Abstract Flavobacteriosis poses a serious threat to wild and propagated fish stocks alike, accounting for more fish mortality in Michigan and its associated state fish hatcheries than all other pathogens combined. Although this consortium of fish diseases has primarily been attributed to Flavobacterium psychrophilum, F. columnare, and F.

Fishes : diversity and fisheries
2012This contribution reviews the knowledge on fish diversity and fisheries in Lake Kivu, with an emphasis on the biology and stock assessment of the introduced Tanganyika sardine, Limnothrissa miodon . Lake Kivu is famous, compared to the other African great lakes, for its poor fish fauna, with 29 species comprising a.o.

Placoderm fishes: diversity through time
1991Abstract The placoderms, with 250 genera, constitute a small but much diversified group of bony fishes. They are sometimes classified as stem-group osteichthyans and, together with the acanthodians, are the earliest true jawed fishes. They are found in the mid-Silurian, but flourished in the Devonian reaching their greatest diversity in ...
