Efficacy of Honey on Sex Reversal of Guppy (Poecilia reticulata Peters)

open access: yesJurnal Akuakultur Indonesia, 2007
This study was performed to determine effectiveness of honey on sex reversal of guppy.  Guppy broodstock was dipped on 1 L of water containing 0, 20, 40 or 60 mL of honey, for 10 hours.

Comparison of in vitro (fish cell line) and in vivo (fish and crustacean) acute toxicity tests in aquatic toxicology

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2021
The use of in vitro (fish cell lines) is a cost-effective, very rapid, and informative tool for toxicological assessments. Using the neutral red (NR) assay, we compared the in vitro acute toxicity (20hEC50) of twenty-six chemical substances on a rainbow ...

First attempt at using a synthetic diet in short‐lived killifish, a vertebrate model of ageing

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Diet standardization of model organisms is crucial for experimental consistency and repeatability in laboratory research, yet laboratory fish often lack species‐specific, open‐formula standardized diets. This study aims to address this gap by testing the effect of macronutrient content on the performance of Nothobranchius furzeri, an ...

Nonapeptide cell size differs between male morphs of the West African cichlid, Pelvicachromis pulcher

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Alternative male morphs are found in many species of fishes. These morphs often differ in suites of social behaviours, such as aggression and territoriality, associated with alternative reproductive tactics. Such consistent morph‐typical behavioural profiles suggest common differences in underlying neuroendocrine mechanisms.

Size‐selective mortality evolutionarily alters collective behaviour in response to predation risk in a zebrafish (Danio rerio) harvest‐induced selection model

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Intensive multigenerational size‐selective mortality has been found to alter collective properties like shoaling via evolutionary adaptations of individual‐level behavioural traits. For example, experimental populations of zebrafish (Danio rerio) experiencing intensive large size‐selective mortality over multiple generations developed less ...

Aspects of the Histopathology of Clarias gariepinus Infected With the Camallanid Parasite Procamallanus (Procamallanus) pseudolaeviconchus Moravec and Van As, 2015

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Histopathological studies of infections with the nematode Procamallanus (Procamallanus) pseudolaeviconchus Moravec and Van As, 2015, an intestinal parasite of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822), are scarce. The current study describes histopathological changes in the stomach of C. gariepinus infected with P.

Genetic improvement of variety pattern chromatic Half BlackBlue or Diamond of ornamental fish Guppy (Poecilia reticulata; Peters, 1859) through mass selection

open access: yesScientia Agropecuaria, 2011
This article provides a standard computerized digitized based on the number of pixels. They found eight characteristic blue color tones in both the body and dorsal fin to be used in the potential for mass selection breeding color pattern of the ...

Why we age

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 911-925, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

Tagging Very Small Fish: Two Effective and Low Impact Methods

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 3, Page 213-224, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Identifying individuals over time and across contexts is essential in many scientific fields. There are a variety of well‐established methods for uniquely marking individuals (e.g., visible implant elastomer, barcodes, paint). However, for some species, life history stages, and/or experiments, existing methods are not sufficient.
