Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) fragment numbers alone – in Atlantic cod and in general - do not represent functional variability [version 1; referees: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2018
This correspondence concerns a publication by Malmstrøm et al. in Nature Genetics in October 2016. Malmstrøm et al. made an important contribution to fish phylogeny research by using low-coverage genome sequencing for comparison of 66 teleost (modern ...

Males of Ichthyofilaria argentinensis Incorvaia, 1999 and I. bergensis (Wülker, 1930) (Dracunculoidea: Guyanemidae): New morphological aspects and emendation of the generic diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The adult male of dracunculoid nematode Ichthyofilaria argentinensis Incorvaia, 1999 (Guyanemidae) is described for the first time based on specimens found in the swimbladder of its type host, Merluccius hubbsi Marini (Merlucciidae), caught off the coast

A new species of parasitic copepod, Sarcotretes umitakae sp. n. (Siphonostomatoida, Pennellidae), on the rattail (Actinopterygii, Macrouridae) from the East China Sea, Japan

open access: yesZooKeys, 2012
A new species of copepod, Sarcotretes umitakae sp. n., of the siphonostomatoid family Pennellidae is described based on female specimens from the rattail Coelorinchus jordani Smith and Pope (Actinopterygii: Gadiformes: Macrouridae) caught in the East ...

The Long and the Short of It: Nanopore-Based eDNA Metabarcoding of Marine Vertebrates Works; Sensitivity and Species-Level Assignment Depend on Amplicon Lengths. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT To monitor the effect of nature restoration projects in North Sea ecosystems, accurate and intensive biodiversity assessments are vital. DNA‐based techniques and especially environmental (e)DNA metabarcoding is becoming a powerful monitoring tool.

Bioaccumulation modelling and sensitivity analysis for discovering key players in contaminated food webs: the case study of PCBs in the Adriatic Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Modelling bioaccumulation processes at the food web level is the main step to analyse the effects of pollutants at the global ecosystem level. A crucial question is understanding which species play a key role in the trophic transfer of contaminants to ...

Density-dependent changes in effective area occupied for sea-bottom-associated marine fishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The spatial distribution of marine fishes can change for many reasons including density-dependent distributional shifts. Previous studies show mixed support for either the proportional-density model, PDM (no relationship between abundance and area ...

First Data on the Age and Growth of Schmidt’s cod Lepidion schmidti (Moridae) from Waters of the Emperor Seamounts (Northwestern Pacific)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
This study presents the first data of growth and age of Schmidt’s cod Lepidion schmidti, a rare and poorly studied member of the Moridae family (Gadiformes, Teleostei).

Changes in the diet of predatory ribbonfish Trichiurus lepturus Linnaeus,   1758 with increasing body size along Chennai coast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In recent years, it has been recognised that predatory fishes are rapidly declining in marine habitats. Hence, gathering information on biological characteristics such as dietary dynamics of predatory fishes has assumed importance.

The Metapopulation Bridge to Macroevolutionary Speciation Rates: A Conceptual Framework and Empirical Test. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Lett
Can metapopulation persistence predict speciation rates? Here, we provide a new framework and apply it to 40 years of fish metacommunity data to test this hypothesized bridge between micro‐ and macroevolution. ABSTRACT Whether large‐scale variation in lineage diversification rates can be predicted by species properties at the population level is a key ...

Finding 16S rRNA gene-based SNPs for the genetic traceability of commercial species belonging to Gadiformes

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
A SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) based analysis was developed to differentiate four economically important species belonging to the Gadiformes order: Pacific cod Gadus macrocephalus, Atlantic cod Gadus morhua, Haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus and ...
