Bony fish genomes: Status and gaps
Abstract Bony fish constitute an exceptionally species‐rich group of aquatic vertebrates, comprising more than 95% of all living fish. The adaptive processes on the diversity of environments they inhabit make them a highly diverse group from taxonomic, morphological and evolutionary standpoints.

Swimming Rhythm Generation in The Caudal Hindbrain of The Lamprey [PDF]
The spinal cord has been well established as the site of generation of the locomotor rhythm in vertebrates, but studies have suggested that the caudal hindbrain in larval fish and amphibians can also generate locomotor rhythms.

Abstract Fish must manage the competing demands of ion balance and gas exchange across the gills – a physiological tension known as the osmorespiratory compromise. In dynamic estuarine environments, the osmorespiratory compromise may be exacerbated by variable salinity and periods of hypoxia that demand high respiratory work.

Generation of knock-in lampreys by CRISPR-Cas9-mediated genome engineering
The lamprey represents the oldest group of living vertebrates and has been a key organism in various research fields such as evolutionary developmental biology and neuroscience.

Blue plaque review series: Thomas Graham Brown: Before his time
Abstract Thomas Graham Brown made a seminal discovery, published in 1911 while he was a Carnegie Fellow in the University of Liverpool laboratory of Nobel Prize winner Charles S. Sherrington. Working in cats, he showed that rhythmic ‘voluntary’ behaviour, such as stepping and, by inference, walking, does not result from a chain of reflex events, but ...

A Review of the Applications and Challenges of Pulsed Electric Fields in Fish Ecological Protection
ABSTRACT The use of pulsed electric fields (PEF) to regulate fish swimming patterns, especially during migratory channel restoration in dammed rivers, faces significant operational challenges. These challenges can generally be attributed to the multifaceted nature of fish behaviour and limitations in research on physical interception methods.

Shoreline slope influences movements of larval lampreys over dewatered substrate
Larval lampreys are filter feeders that live for several years burrowed in fine sediments in freshwater streams. Stream side channels and edges, where larval lampreys gather, are vulnerable to natural and human‐caused dewatering.

Lampreys, together with hagfishes, represent the sister group of gnathostome vertebrates. There is an increasing interest for comparing the forebrain organization observed in lampreys and gnathostomes to shed light on vertebrate brain evolution.

The Effects of Serotonin on Functionally Diverse Isolated Lamprey Spinal Cord Neurons [PDF]
The experiments reported here showed that application of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) (100 µ M) did not induce any significant current through the membranes of any of the spinal neurons studied (n = 62).

ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...
