Major histocompatibility complex in Osteichthyes [PDF]
Based on analysis of available genome sequences, five gene lineages of MHC class I molecules (MHC I-U, -Z, -S, -L and -P) and one gene lineage of MHC class II molecules (MHC II-D) have been identified in Osteichthyes.

Characterisation of thrombocytes in Osteichthyes [PDF]
Thrombocytes in vertebrates other than mammals, inter alia in fish, are analogues of platelets in mammals. In Osteichthyes, these cells take part in haemostatic processes, including aggregation and release reactions in cases of blood vessel damage, and ...

Immune Functions of Erythrocytes in Osteichthyes [PDF]
Red blood cells (RBCs)—erythrocytes—of Osteichthyes are primarily known for their involvement in the process of gas exchange and respiration. Currently, physiological properties of RCBs in fish should also include their ability to participate in defense ...

Specific humoral immunity in Osteichthyes [PDF]
The fish immune system is extremely complex and has considerable adaptive potential. In Osteichthyes, the system is formed by lymphopoietic organs which are important for the differentiation and maturation of the immune system cells. These organs include

The Dermal Skeleton of Stem-Actinopterygian Moythomasia durgaringa and Its Implications for the Nature of the Ancestral Osteichthyan. [PDF]
The figure presents a model of Moythomasia and a schematic histological model illustrating the internal structure and features of the cranial bones. These include bone (brown), osteocyte spaces (red), spheritic bone (light brown), osteon spaces (orange), dentine and canaliculi (green), pulp canal (yellow), ganoine (gray), arrested growth lines (dashed ...

Use of Citizen Science to Determine Prey Partitioning Between Two Coastal Raptors. [PDF]
In Australia, Eastern Osprey (Pandion haliaetus cristatus) and White‐bellied Sea‐Eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) occupy the same ecological niche and are suspected of partitioning prey resources. This study investigated this through evaluating the breadth, overlap and partitioning of diets recorded from social media posts.

High-Throughput DNA Sequencing Reveals Gastric Content Composition and Inter-Specific Variation in <i>Pampus</i> Fishes. [PDF]
In this study, we employed high‐throughput sequencing of environmental DNA (eDNA) to conduct an analysis of the gastric contents composition and relative abundance from samples of P. argenteus and P. punctatissimus collected at the Jimiya Fish Pier in Qingdao, Shandong Province, and P. cinereus collected at the Qinglan Port in Wenchang, Hainan Province.

Conserved Sequence Identification Within Large Genomic Datasets Using 'Unikseq2': Application in Environmental DNA Assay Development. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Identification of conserved genomic sequences and their utilisation as anchor points for clade detection and/or characterisation is a mainstay in ecological studies. For environmental DNA (eDNA) assays, effective processing of large genomic datasets is crucial for reliable species detection in biodiversity monitoring.
