Ontogeny of escape response and body shape in threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus L.)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Escape responses in fishes provide insight into accelerative motions and behavioural response times of these animals, linking numerous fitness‐related traits. We sought to connect escape response performance to genotype and phenotype across ontogenetic stages within a single population of threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus L.) to ...

Dystrophin gene expression and intracellular calcium changes in the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, in response to white spot symptom disease infection

open access: yesHeliyon, 2017
Background: Dystrophin, an essential protein functional in the maintenance of muscle structural integrity is known to be responsible for muscle deterioration during white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection among prawn species.

Dynamic colour change predicts movement behaviour in a diadromous fish

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dynamic changes in colour and pattern facilitate key behavioural functions in animals, particularly camouflage for predator avoidance. However, the benefits of colour change depend on the environmental and behavioural contexts. We tested how colour change interacts with movement behaviour in a freshwater fish by filming individuals in an open ...

Biomolecular changes that occur in the antennal gland of the giant freshwater prawn (Machrobrachium rosenbergii).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
In decapod crustaceans, the antennal gland (AnG) is a major primary source of externally secreted biomolecules, and some may act as pheromones that play a major role in aquatic animal communication.

Non‐native pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha carcasses benefit native benthic macroinvertebrates

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The invasion of the North Atlantic by pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha has raised concerns regarding their impact on coastal rivers. Although the influence of marine‐derived nutrients from returning adult O. gorbuscha on rivers in their native range has received much attention, the ecological consequences of invasive O.

Some problems of biotechnology for growing of larvae of giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (Decapoda: Palaemonidae)

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2015
Giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man, 1879) is cultivated in Crimea since 2000 and technology of complete cycle of its cultivation from planting material to saleable product is successfully applied nowadays.

Strain performance of tilapia in freshwater prawn polyculture

open access: yesJournal of the Bangladesh Agricultural University, 2016
Production performance of two tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) strain viz. Chitralada and GIFT (Genetically Improved Farmed Tilapia) in fish-prawn polyculture system was compared, and possible effect of tilapia inclusion in freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) culture was evaluated in 120 days of grow-out phase. There were three treatments, i.e.

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...
