This study demonstrates the use of environmental DNA metabarcoding of fish in a highly diverse but poorly described tropical mangrove ecosystem along the North coast of Java, Indonesia. Our results indicate eDNA metabarcoding can capture temporal differences and provide a baseline for fish diversity for future (eDNA metabarcoding) biodiversity studies ...

Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates
ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

Beyond the Binary: Controlling Natural Sex‐Change in Hermaphroditic Fishes
ABSTRACT Sex‐change in hermaphroditic fishes is a complex but natural biological phenomenon that has significant implications for aquaculture fingerling production, selective breeding, and grow‐out. Understanding the physiological, endocrinological, and molecular pathways underlying hermaphroditism in fishes offers unique opportunities to manipulate ...
