Gut Microbiota Associated With Different Sea Lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) Life Stages [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Sea lamprey (SL; Petromyzon marinus), one of the oldest living vertebrates, have a complex metamorphic life cycle. Following hatching, SL transition into a microphagous, sediment burrowing larval stage, and after 2–10+ years, the larvae undergo a ...

Diel activity of newly metamorphosed juvenile sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Timing of activity, especially for juvenile anadromous fishes undertaking long migrations can be critical for survival. River-resident larval sea lamprey metamorphose into juveniles and migrate from their larval stream habitats in fall through spring ...

Pupillary light reflex of lamprey Petromyzon marinus. [PDF]
Curr Biol, 2021 The discoveries of the photopigment melanopsin and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) have revealed novel mechanisms of light detection now known to control several kinds of non-image-forming vision, including regulation of mood, the circadian rhythm, and the pupillary light reflex (PLR). These remarkable discoveries have been

Seascape genomics reveals limited dispersal and suggests spatially varying selection among European populations of sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, 2023 Sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus is an anadromous and semelparous fish without homing behaviors. Despite being a freshwater, free‐living organism for a large part of their life cycle, its adulthood is spent as a parasite of marine vertebrates.

The effect of putrescine on space use and activity in sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Fish use odor to avoid exposure to predation and disease. Harnessing these odors as repellents is proving useful for management initiatives that conserve native species or control invasive populations.

Expression of Kisspeptin 1 in the Brain of the Adult Sea Lamprey Petromyzon marinus [PDF]
Life, 2021 Kisspeptin peptides play major roles in the regulation of reproduction and puberty onset in mammals. While most mammals only have one kisspeptin gene, other jawed vertebrates present two or three genes. Recent data also revealed the presence of two genes

Ethnozoological knowledge of traditional fishing villages about the anadromous sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) in the Minho river, Portugal [PDF]
Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine, 2019 Background Sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) is a diadromous fish compromised by various stressors, which can lead to population decline and the urgency of stronger conservation regulation.
