Are Vertebrates Still Needed in Routine Whole Effluent Toxicity Testing for Oil and Gas Discharges?

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1255-1265, May 2021., 2021
Historical whole effluent toxicity (WET) data collected for effluent discharge permits from oil and gas facilities were compiled into a database and analyzed. The objective was to explore the relative sensitivities of vertebrate (fish) and invertebrate test organisms in WET tests and to understand performance of oil and gas effluent discharges over ...

Microplastics in freshwater fishes: Occurrence, impacts and future perspectives

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 22, Issue 3, Page 467-488, May 2021., 2021
Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are small, plastic particles of various shapes, sizes and polymers. Although well studied in marine systems, their roles and importance in freshwater environments remain uncertain. Nevertheless, the restricted ranges and variable traits of freshwater fishes result in their communities being important receptors and strong ...

Cytonuclear Patterns of Genetic Diversity and the Intricate Evolutionary History of the Inland Silverside (Menidia beryllina) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Heredity, 2009
DNA sequence variation at a mitochondrial and a nuclear intron locus was surveyed within and among multiple populations of the inland silverside (Menidia beryllina) from the southeastern United States and revealed discordant phylogenetic patterns but similar patterns of population genetic variation across nuclear and mitochondrial loci.

Assessment of Bolbophorus damnificus prevalence and cercariae shedding in Planorbella trivolvis populations from catfish aquaculture ponds in Mississippi, USA

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 395-404, April 2021., 2021
Abstract Bolbophorus damnificus (Digenea: Bolbophoridae) causes significant losses in US catfish aquaculture. Little is known regarding the prevalence of infected snail hosts during outbreaks. To assess prevalence of snails observed shedding Bolbophorus spp.

Trophic transfer, bioaccumulation and transcriptomic effects of permethrin in inland silversides, Menidia beryllina, under future climate scenarios [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Pollution, 2021
Global climate change (GCC) significantly affects aquatic ecosystems. Continual use of pyrethroid insecticides results in contamination of these ecosystems and concurrent GCC raises the potential for synergistic effects. Resistance to pyrethroids has been documented in Hyalella azteca, a common epibenthic amphipod and model organism.

Spatial, diel, and seasonal changes in the fish community structure of a Mexican tropical estuary

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2012
To extend our knowledge about spatial and temporal variations in the structure of estuarine fish communities, diel samplings (collections every 2 h) were carried out every two months over a one-year period in two different habitats (vegetated and ...

Changes in thyroid status of Menidia beryllina exposed to the antifouling booster irgarol: Impacts of temperature and salinity [PDF]

open access: yesChemosphere, 2018
The triazine-based herbicide irgarol is widely used in antifouling systems as an algicide and has been detected recently in multiple coastal environments. Studies evaluating sub-lethal responses of fish following exposure to irgarol are limited. Moreover, impacts of climate change on fish endocrinology may also contribute to the sublethal toxicity of ...

Intraspecific resource partitioning by an opportunistic strategist, inland silverside Menidia beryllina

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ichthyology, 2007
Summary Seasonal variation in prey consumption and food resource overlap was evident in an inland water body for mature male, mature female and immature inland silverside (Menidia beryllina). During the first growth phase marked by intensive somatic growth by immature inland silverside, few adults were present in the population (28% of total catch ...

Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Reproduction and Early Life Development in Marine Teleost Fish—A Synthesis

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1176-1192, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ocean acidification (OA) remains a major and underexplored threat to marine fishes, particularly regarding reproductive physiology and early life stages (ELS). Although research over the past 15 years has documented diverse OA effects, substantial knowledge gaps persist.
