Demography of sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) ammocoete populations in relation to potential spawning-migration obstructions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Recent advances in the understanding of lamprey migrations have led to concerns over the impacts of obstructions on the demography of many species. This study investigated sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) larvae

Measurement of suction pressure dynamics of sea lampreys, Petromyzon marinus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Species-specific monitoring activities represent fundamental tools for natural resource management and conservation but require techniques that target species-specific traits or markers. Sea lamprey, a destructive invasive species in the Laurentian Great

Neuronal Control of Swimming Behavior: Comparison of Vertebrate and Invertebrate Model Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Swimming movements in the leech and lamprey are highly analogous, and lack homology. Thus, similarities in mechanisms must arise from convergent evolution rather than from common ancestry.

The Spinobulbar System in Lamprey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Locomotor networks in the spinal cord are controlled by descending systems which in turn receive feedback signals from ascending systems about the state of the locomotor networks.

Flexibility in the Patterning and Control of Axial Locomotor Networks in Lamprey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In lower vertebrates, locomotor burst generators for axial muscles generally produce unitary bursts that alternate between the two sides of the body. In lamprey, a lower vertebrate, locomotor activity in the axial ventral roots of the isolated spinal ...

Chemical Characterization of Lipophilic Constituents in the Skin of Migratory Adult Sea Lamprey from the Great Lakes Region.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The sea lamprey (Petromzons marinus) is an invasive ectoparasite of large-bodied fishes that adversely affects the fishing industry and ecology of the Laurentian Great Lakes.

Unresolved orthology and peculiar coding sequence properties of lamprey genes: the KCNA gene family as test case

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background In understanding the evolutionary process of vertebrates, cyclostomes (hagfishes and lamprey) occupy crucial positions. Resolving molecular phylogenetic relationships of cyclostome genes with gnathostomes (jawed vertebrates) genes is ...

Mixtures of Two Bile Alcohol Sulfates Function as a Proximity Pheromone in Sea Lamprey. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Unique mixtures of pheromone components are commonly identified in insects, and have been shown to increase attractiveness towards conspecifics when reconstructed at the natural ratio released by the signaler. In previous field studies of pheromones that

Diel activity of newly metamorphosed juvenile sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus).

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

ABC model for estimating sea lamprey local population size using a simple nest count during the spawning season

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2023
Population estimation implies considering the biology of the species, but also the constraints of logistic aspects such as cost. While common methods based on individual counts can provide precise estimates, they require an extensive sampling effort.
