A review of the reproductive biology of mormyroid fishes: An emerging model for biomedical research
Mormyroid electric fish have great potential as biomedical models, but the inability to reliably breed mormyroids in the laboratory has hindered widespread use in this capacity. To facilitate solving this problem, we extensively review mormyroid reproductive biology.
