Sequence and structure comparison of ATP synthase F0 subunits 6 and 8 in notothenioid fish.
Mitochondrial changes such as tight coupling of the mitochondria have facilitated sustained oxygen and respiratory activity in haemoglobin-less icefish of the Channichthyidae family.

No hemoglobin but NO: the icefish (Chionodraco hamatus) heart as a paradigm [PDF]
SUMMARY The role of nitric oxide (NO) in cardio-vascular homeostasis is now known to include allosteric redox modulation of cell respiration. An interesting animal for the study of this wide-ranging influence of NO is the cold-adapted Antarctic icefish Chionodraco hamatus, which is characterised by evolutionary loss of hemoglobin and ...

The Frank-Starling response is an intrinsic heart property that is particularly evident in the fish heart because piscine cardiomyocytes are extremely sensitive to stretch. Several mechanisms and compounds influence the Frank-Starling response, including

Variable expression of myoglobin among the hemoglobinless Antarctic icefishes [PDF]
The important intracellular oxygen-binding protein, myoglobin (Mb), is thought to be absent from oxidative muscle tissues of the family of hemoglobinless Antarctic icefishes, Channichthyidae . Within this family of fishes, which is endemic to the Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica, there exist 15 known species ...

Seasonal changes in icefish diel feeding patterns in Lake Chaohu, a large shallow eutrophic lake of China [PDF]
Seasonal changes in the diel feeding patterns of the zooplanktivorous icefish (Neosalanx taihuensis), which is an endemic species of China, were studied in the large, shallow eutrophic Lake Chaohu of China during the autumn of 2002 and summer of 2003 ...

The Unique Mitochondrial Form and Function of Antarctic Channichthyid Icefishes [PDF]
Antarctic icefishes of the family Channichthyidae are the only vertebrate animals that as adults do not express the circulating oxygen-binding protein hemoglobin (Hb). Six of the 16 family members also lack the intracellular oxygen-binding protein myoglobin (Mb) in the ventricle of their hearts and all lack Mb in oxidative skeletal muscle.

Climatic variations are known to engender life-history diversification of species and populations at large spatial scales. However, the extent to which microgeographic variations in climate (e.g., those occurring within a single large ecosystem) can also

Changes in the blackfin icefish stock structure, Chaenocephalus aceratus (Lönnberg, 1906), Pisces, Notothenioidei, Channichthyidae) off South Georgia within 1975-1992 [PDF]
The paper demonstrates results of the stock monitoring of blackfin icefish in the region of South Georgia in the period of 1988/89-1991/92 as well as summarises seventeen-year period ofobservation (1976/77 -1991/92).

Indirect ecological interactions such as competition for resources between fisheries and marine predators have often been proposed but can be difficult to demonstrate empirically.
