Complete Mitochondrial Genomes of Baikal Oilfishes (Perciformes: Cottoidei), Earth's Deepest-Swimming Freshwater Fishes. [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA B Resour, 2017 Sculpins are predominantly benthic sit-and-wait predators that inhabit marine and freshwaters of the Northern Hemisphere. In striking contrast to riverine relatives, sculpins endemic to Lake Baikal have diversified in both form and function, with ...

Signs of Selection in Synonymous Sites of the Mitochondrial Cytochrome b Gene of Baikal Oilfish (Comephoridae) by mRNA Secondary Structure Alterations. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2015 Studies over the past decade have shown a significant role of synonymous mutations in posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression, which is particularly associated with messenger RNA (mRNA) secondary structure alterations. Most studies focused on prokaryote genomes and the nuclear genomes of eukaryotes while little is known about the regulation ...

Diet of the oilfish Ruvettus pretiosus (Perciformes: Gempylidae) in the Saint Peter and Saint Paul archipelago, Brazil [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2012 Feeding aspects of the oilfish, Ruvettus pretiosus, were studied based on 360 stomachs of both male and female specimens caught off the Saint Peter and Saint Paul Archipelago. The total length of the specimens ranged from 52.4 cm to 189.0 cm.

Revisiting Eothyrsites holosquamatus Chapman (Trichiuroidea: Gempylidae), an Eocene gemfish from the Burnside Mudstone, Dunedin, New Zealand. [PDF]
J R Soc N ZABSTRACT The remains of a unique fossil bony fish were discovered in late Eocene (39.1–36.7 Ma: NZ Kaiatan stage) mudstone at Burnside near Dunedin, New Zealand in the 1930s and subsequently named and described by Frederick Chapman. He interpreted the type specimen as being a large‐scaled relative of the modern Thyrsites of the Gempylidae (Scombroidei:

Ecological risk assessment in the southern Indian Ocean: Towards better seabird bycatch mitigation
Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 33, Issue 11, Page 1218-1228, November 2023., 2023 Abstract Fisheries bycatch has been identified as the most serious threat to many seabird species and there is an increasing awareness of the responsibility of fisheries management bodies to include the impact on non‐target species in their management and regulatory frameworks. In 2022, an ecological risk assessment (ERA) for seabirds and fisheries was

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 126, Issue 1, January 2021., 2021 Abstract A free‐floating oil spill experiment (two oil types) in the open ocean is described, and the results from slick characterization through integrated analysis of drift simulations with remote sensing and in situ data are discussed. We compare oil drift simulations (OpenOil), applying various configurations of wind, wave, and current information,
