Cytogenetic characterization of F1, F2 and backcross hybrids of the Neotropical catfish species Pseudoplatystoma corruscans and Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum (Pimelodidae, Siluriformes) [PDF]

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2012
The cytogenetic characteristics of Pseudoplatystoma corruscans and Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum and their F1, F2 and backcross hybrids were assessed by using chromosome banding techniques.

Genetic divergence between Pseudoplatystoma corruscans and Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum (Siluriformes: Pimelodidae) in the Paraná River Basin [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2009
Pseudoplatystoma corruscans (Spix and Agassiz, 1829) and Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum (Eingenmann and Eigenmann, 1889) are large migratory catfishes of high biological importance and great commercial value in South America. Because fertile crossbreeds can be artificially produced in hatcheries, a high genetic proximity between these two Pimelodidae ...

Metabolic responses to dietary carbohydrate/lipids ratios in neotropical hybrid catfish (♂Pseudoplatystoma corruscans×♀Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum) [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019
: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of different carbohydrate and lipid (CHO/L) ratios on the performance and energy metabolism of hybrid catfish (♂Pseudoplatystoma corruscans × ♀ Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum). One hundred and sixty-eight

Evaluation of protein isolate obtained from byproducts of hybrid sorubim (Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum x Pseudoplatystoma corruscans)

Journal of Bioenergy and Food Science, 2018
Industrial fish processing generates large quantities of protein-rich byproducts, which are usually discarded because of their low commercial value.

Integrative taxonomy reveals two new species of whiptail catfishes Loricaria (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from northeastern Brazil. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract Two new species of whiptail catfish, Loricaria (Siluriformes: Loricariidae), were discovered in the Munim and Itapecuru river basins, Maranhão State, northeastern Brazil, through an integrative taxonomic approach combining morphology and mitochondrial DNA.

Assessing the population structure of Plagioscion squamosissimus (Teleostei, Perciformes, Sciaenidae) from the São Francisco River, Bahia, Brazil, using body morphology and otolith shape signatures. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract The south American silver croaker, Plagioscion squamosissimus, holds significant importance for the artisanal fisheries in the sub‐middle and lower courses of the São Francisco River, located in northeastern Brazil. To investigate the population structure of this species along its longitudinal profile, a total of 150 individuals (50 fish per ...

Hybridization, Maternal Inheritance, and Evolutionary Time of Divergence of Endangered Species of <i>Hypancistrus</i> (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) in the Xingu River. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We uncover recent hybridization dynamics among three endemic Hypancistrus species from the Xingu River, including the critically endangered H. zebra. Mitogenomic analyses reveal unidirectional maternal inheritance and recent evolutionary radiation (< 0.5 Ma), explaining their retained reproductive compatibility.
