Fish, Fish Oils and Cardioprotection: Promise or Fish Tale? [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Fish and commercially available fish oil preparations are rich sources of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are the most important fatty acids in fish oil. Following dietary intake, these fatty acids get incorporated into the cell membrane phospholipids throughout the body ...

Detailed kinship estimation for detecting bias among breeding families in a reintroduced population of the endangered bagrid catfish Tachysurus ichikawai

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
In the process of captive breeding and reintroduction of endangered animal species, it is crucial to minimize familial bias in reproductive success during the reintroduction phase to preserve genetic diversity. In this study, we attempted to identify the familial lineage of individuals of the endangered bagrid fish Tachysurus ichikawai born at the ...

Optimal undulating swimming for a single fish-like body and for a pair of interacting swimmers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We establish through numerical simulation conditions for optimal undulatory propulsion for a single fish, and for a pair of hydrodynamically interacting fish, accounting for linear and angular recoil. We first employ systematic 2D simulations to identify conditions for minimal propulsive power of a self-propelled fish, and continue with targeted 3D ...

Optimal SNP filtering strategies for pedigree reconstruction: A case study with wild red‐spotted masu salmon population

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
In this article, we tested optimal SNP filtering strategies for accurate parentage assignment and pedigree reconstruction for a wild population of red‐spotted masu salmon, Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae. We found that mid‐point filtering in terms of call rate and minor allele frequency performs well for pedigree reconstruction.

Dining in the Deep: The Feeding Ecology of Deep-Sea Fishes.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Marine Science, 2017
Deep-sea fishes inhabit ∼75% of the biosphere and are a critical part of deep-sea food webs. Diet analysis and more recent trophic biomarker approaches, such as stable isotopes and fatty-acid profiles, have enabled the description of feeding guilds and ...

Evaluating the origin and spread of spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) in Japan

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
The invasive spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) is native to China and is a serious economic pest in the Republic of Korea and the United States, though it is not considered a pest in Japan. We established a distribution map of L. delicatula in Japan through a comprehensive review of published literature and citizen science reports and analyzed ...

The Effects of Tachykinin1 Gene Products on Prepubertal Dabry’s Sturgeon (Acipenser dabrynus) Pituitary Hormone Secretion and Gene Expression

open access: yesAnimals
As an ancient and endangered species unique to the Yangtze River in China, the wild population of the Dabry’s sturgeon has become scarce. Due to the long time till the first sexual maturity of Dabry’s sturgeon, the population of artificially bred Dabry’s

Behavioural individuality in clonal fish arises despite near-identical rearing conditions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Genetically-identical animals experiencing the same environmental conditions should develop, in theory, identical behavioral traits. However, Bierbachet al.

High Endemism in an Endangered Biodiversity Hotspot: Phylogeny, Taxonomy and Distribution Patterns of Catfishes of the Psammocambeva Alpha-Clade (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae) from the Rio Doce Basin, Brazil

open access: yesFishes, 2023
The Rio Doce basin is situated in a biodiversity hotspot, with some fish groups still superficially known. The intense process of habitat loss and water contamination justifies efforts to speed up the pace of describing fish species diversity. Herein, we
