ABSTRACT Large alluvial plain rivers provide a complex mosaic of freshwater habitats characterised by a lateral hydrological connectivity (LHC) gradient between the main channel and floodplains. This connectivity plays a key role in structuring aquatic communities, influencing species distribution, diversity, and ecosystem processes.

The Nuclear DNA Content and Genetic Diversity of Lampetra morii.
We investigated the nuclear DNA content and genetic diversity of a river lamprey, the Korean lamprey Lampetra morii, which is distributed in the northeast of China. L.

Genetic diversity and population structure of the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus L.) across its distributional range [PDF]
Lampreys are a group of ancient vertebrates with 360 million years of existence. Throughout their evolution, they have acquired local adaptations to the colonized habitats, showing high plasticity and adaptive capacities.

Mixed lineage kinase domain‐like pseudokinase (MLKL) is a key effector of necroptosis. We identified an MLKL homologue from Hexagrammos otakii, named HoMLKL. The open reading frame (ORF) of HoMLKL contained 1497 nucleotides and encoded a protein with 498 amino acids (Mw = 57.15 kDa). Bioinformatic analysis revealed that HoMLKL is highly conserved.

Population ecology of the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) as an invasive species in the Laurentian Great Lakes and an imperiled species in Europe [PDF]
The sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus (Linnaeus) is both an invasive non-native species in the Laurentian Great Lakes of North America and an imperiled species in much of its native range in North America and Europe.

Will a Fish's Perspective Improve the Ecological Relevance of River Connectivity Metrics?
ABSTRACT Structural indices of aquatic connectivity typically focus on the spatial arrangement of barriers to fish movement. Here, we describe a method that adapts the widely applied structural Dendritic Connectivity Index (DCI) into a functional index (DCIF) that constrains connectivity measurements to biologically relevant scales (e.g., based on fish

Retinoic acid (RA) is involved in antero-posterior patterning of the chordate body axis and, in jawed vertebrates, has been shown to play a major role at multiple levels of the gene regulatory network (GRN) regulating hindbrain segmentation. Knowing when

Evolution of the bile salt nuclear receptor FXR in vertebrates*s⃞
Bile salts, the major end metabolites of cholesterol, vary significantly in structure across vertebrate species, suggesting that nuclear receptors binding these molecules may show adaptive evolutionary changes.

A haplotype-resolved draft genome of the European sardine (Sardina pilchardus) [PDF]
The European sardine (Sardina pilchardus Walbaum, 1792) is culturally and economically important throughout its distribution. Monitoring studies of sardine populations report an alarming decrease in stocks due to overfishing and environmental change ...
