Effects of ammonia exposure on anxiety behavior, oxidative stress and inflammation in guppy (Poecilia reticulate).

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Toxicology & pharmacology : CBP, 2022
Ammonia is one of the most important aquatic environmental factors, which is of great concern. In order to evaluate the effect of ammonia on guppy (Poecilia reticulate), fish were exposed to increased concentrations (0, 12.50, 25.00, 41.67, 62.50 mg/L ...

Exposure to microplastics impairs digestive performance, stimulates immune response and induces microbiota dysbiosis in the gut of juvenile guppy (Poecilia reticulata).

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Microplastics (MPs) are widely distributing in aquatic environment. They are easily ingested by aquatic organisms and accumulate in digestive tract especially of intestine.

Integrated response of growth, antioxidant defense and isotopic composition to microplastics in juvenile guppy (Poecilia reticulata).

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2020
Microplastics (MPs) pollution becomes a research hotspot and many studies focus on threats of MPs, but few have integrated multi-level indicators to assess response to MPs of organisms.

In vitro effects of silver nanoparticles on gills morphology of female Guppy (Poecilia reticulate) after a short‐term exposure

Microscopy research and technique (Print), 2020
The application of nanoparticles in various industries has grown significantly in recent years. The aims of this study were evaluation effects of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on survival rate and tissues (Gills) of Guppy (Poecilia reticulate) as a model ...

Historical distribution and current drivers of guppy occurrence in Brazil.

Journal of Fish Biology, 2020
Humans introduce non-native species by such means as the deliberate release of fish into fresh waters and through the commercial trade. The guppy, Poecilia reticulata Peters, 1859, is commonly used in aquariums and to control disease vectors, and now ...

The puzzling guppy Y chromosome

Nature Reviews Genetics, 2021
Deborah Charlesworth reflects on a 1970 publication by Haskins et al., a study on guppy Y chromosomes that beautifully demonstrates the use of classical genetics and remains intriguing to this day.

Rearing Environment Affects the Brain Size of Guppies: Lab‐Reared Guppies have Smaller Brains than Wild‐Caught Guppies

Ethology, 2009
AbstractAnimals bred for captivity often have smaller brains and behave differently than their wild counterparts. These differences in brain size have been attributed to genetic changes resulting from, for example, inbreeding depression and pleiotropic effects of artificial selection for traits such as docility.
