Evolutionary history of anglerfishes (Teleostei: Lophiiformes): a mitogenomic perspective [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background The teleost order Lophiiformes, commonly known as the anglerfishes, contains a diverse array of marine fishes, ranging from benthic shallow-water dwellers to highly modified deep-sea midwater species. They comprise 321 living species placed in

The first record of a frogfish, Fowlerichthys scriptissimus (Antennariidae, Lophiiformes), from Korea [PDF]

Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2017
This is the first report of Fowlerichthys scriptissimus (Lophiiformes, Antennariidae) from Korea. A single specimen (291.0 mm SL) was collected off the coast of Jejudo Island by gill net on 28 March 2012 and identified with morphological and molecular ...

A Complete Telomere-To-Telomere Assembly of <i>Plectropomus leopardus</i> and Phylogenomic Insights Into Perciformes. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT The leopard coral grouper, Plectropomus leopardus Lacepède, 1802, is an ecologically and economically important species in the family Epinephelidae. However, the absence of a complete reference genome has impeded advanced genetic research on this species, and the phylogenetic position of Epinephelidae within Perciformes remains unresolved ...

Convergent Evolutionary Dead-End and Breakdown of Hard Chorion in Parental-Egg-Care Fish Reproductive Strategies. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Fish exhibit a diverse array of reproductive strategies adapted to various ecological niches. Parental egg‐care, including live‐bearing, mouth‐brooding, and male egg protection by brood pouches, represents an effective strategy for ensuring larval survival and has emerged independently in multiple lineages.

Deep-sea anglerfishes (Lophiiformes: Ceratioidei) from off northeastern Brazil, with remarks on the ceratioids reported from the Brazilian Exclusive Economic Zone

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2021
The deep-sea anglerfishes of the suborder Ceratioidei (Lophiiformes) are represented by about 170 valid species with some of the most extraordinary morphological and reproductive adaptations among vertebrates, including extreme sexual dimorphism and male

Submissions of diagnostic samples of two critically endangered species of handfish (Branchionichthys hirsutus and Thymichthys politus) from a public aquarium from 2018 to 2024. [PDF]

J Fish Dis
Abstract Handfish (Family Brachionichthyidae) is the most threatened marine teleost fish family, however, there is little information on handfish health. We reviewed the results of submissions of mortalities from captive and captive bred spotted handfish (Branchionichthys hirsutus (Lacepède, 1804)) and red handfish (Thymichthys politus (Richardson ...

DNA barcoding the ichthyofauna of the Beibu Gulf: Implications for fisheries management in a seafood market hub

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
The fish fauna of the beibu gulf, one of the largest sea food hubs in Southeast Asia, is characterized here by DNA barcoding. The 1080 DNA barcodes analyzed show concordance between morphological identifications and DNA‐based species delimitation. Lower level of diversity detected here compared to historical observations is concordant with the stock ...

Design and Validation of an Open-Close Device for Integrated Environmental DNA Sampling Detects A Depth Gradient in Indian Ocean Deep-Sea Fish Assemblages. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
The goal of this study was to leverage existing survey technology to design and test an eDNA sampler that captures an integrated eDNA sample over the length of a deep‐water transect. We provide a biological interpretation of the resulting data, demonstrating the usefulness of such technology to understand the ocean environments, using fish species as ...

Lymphocyte pathway analysis using naturally lymphocyte‐deficient fish

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 53, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Loss of phenotypic characters is often accompanied by degradation of trait‐specific genetic components. Genome analysis of teleosts lacking canonical components of the adaptive immune system distinguishes trait‐specific from pleiotropic genes governing lymphocyte differentiation.

Foxn1 is not essential for T‐cell development in teleosts

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 53, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
In contrast to the situation in mammals, loss of the foxn1 gene in teleosts does not abolish the lymphopoietic capacity of the thymus. This result suggests that in teleosts, genetic control of thymopoiesis is functionally redundant, likely owing to the activity of the Foxn4 transcription factor.
