Water quality assessment of the Tubarão River through chemical analysis and biomarkers in the Neotropical fish Geophagus brasiliensis

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2013
The Tubarão River rises in Santa Catarina, Brazil, and has been historically affected by coal mining activities around its springhead. To evaluate its water conditions, an investigation regarding a possible decontamination gradient associated with the increased river flow toward the estuary, as well as the influence of seasonality over this gradient ...

The hemoglobin of Geophagus brasiliensis (cichlidae)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1991
Abstract 1. 1. The hemoglobin of Geophagus brasiliensis was submitted to electrophoresis on starch gel and agar-starch on microscopic slides. In both supporting media five major components were observed. 2. 2. Stripped hemoglobin showed normal Bohr shift (Δlog p 50 /Δ pH = θ = −0.661 ).

Influence of temperature on larval ontogenesis of Geophagus brasiliensis (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824) (Pisces: Cichlidae)

Zygote, 2021
SummaryStudies on the larval development of fish are essential for conservation and improvements in cultivation techniques. Geophagus brasiliensis popularly known as Cará has potential as a fish of interest in ornamental aquaculture. Wild adults of G. brasiliensis were kept in an aquarium for spontaneous reproduction.

Liquid Storage of Geophagus brasiliensis semen in the Presence of Different Extenders.

Cryo letters, 2021
In order to preserve the genetic diversity of cichlid fish in gene banks, it is necessary to use certain extenders to maintain the integrity of spermatozoa cells during cooling.To evaluate the effects of different extenders on the quality parameters of cooled semen of Geophagus brasiliensis.Semen samples were collected from seven adult fish and diluted

Trends of karyotypical evolution in the pearl cichlid, Geophagus brasiliensis, from southern Brazil

Zoology, 2013
Chromosomal rearrangements such as inversions can facilitate speciation even in the presence of gene flow. The present study aims to analyze the karyotypic variation in six populations of Geophagus brasiliensis from southern Brazil. All specimens showed 2n=48 chromosomes, but three karyotypes were found to have one, two or three pairs of submetacentric

Environmentally related life history variations in Geophagus brasiliensis

Journal of Fish Biology, 2002
The hypothesis of environmentally related life history variations between two Geophagus brasiliensis populations was investigated by comparing riverine and lacustrine populations. Mean standard length and length at maturity were higher in the lagoon population.

Toxic effects of ornamental stone processing waste effluents on Geophagus brasiliensis (Teleostei: Cichlidae)

Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2019
The ornamental stone industry generates considerable amounts of waste (OSPW), which may eventually reach natural environments and impact the local ecosystem. The aim of this study was to compare the toxic effects of two OSPW effluents in Geophagus brasiliensis: i) leachate effluent from a lagoon in an OSPW landfill (LE) and ii) decanted effluent from ...

Temperature affects the toxicity of lead-contaminated food in Geophagus brasiliensis (QUOY & GAIMARD, 1824)

Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2019
Lead is toxic to fish, and its toxicity can be aggravated by the water temperature. Geophagus brasiliensis populations are geographically widespread and thus live in areas with different temperatures. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of lead-contaminated feed in fish (Geophagus brasiliensis) exposed to different temperatures.

Development and characterization of 14 microsatellite loci in the Neotropical fish Geophagus brasiliensis (Perciformes, Cichlidae)

Journal of Fish Biology, 2013
Fourteen polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized for the Neotropical cichlid Geophagus brasiliensis and tested on 30 individuals belonging to a single population. Among the 14 loci described, four showed potential presence of null alleles, inferred from the excess of homozygous genotypes, and three of these loci showed ...
