How the resilient ecophysiology of the sea lamprey allowed them to invade the Laurentian Great Lakes and could protect them from climate change

open access: yesFrontiers in Fish Science
Native to the Atlantic Ocean, anadromous sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) likely invaded the Laurentian Great Lakes in the mid 1800's-early 1900's following construction of the Erie Canal.

THE HEMOGLOBIN OF THE SEA LAMPREY, PETROMYZON MARINUS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 1951
The blood hemoglobin of the sea lamprey presents a curious mixture of primitive and highly specialized properties. Like muscle hemoglobin, it has a molecular weight of about 17,000, and apparently contains a single heme. Its isoelectric point is like that of a typical invertebrate hemoglobin.

Effects of sea lamprey substrate modification and carcass nutrients on macroinvertebrate assemblages in a small Atlantic coastal stream

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2018
Aquatic macroinvertebrates respond to patch dynamics arising from interactions of physical and chemical disturbances across space and time. Anadromous fish, such as sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus, migrate from the ocean and alter physical and chemical ...

An index to characterize the spatial distribution of land use within watersheds and implications for river network nutrient removal and export [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The spatial distribution of land use and associated nutrient inputs may influence the efficacy of in-stream nutrient removal; however, the effect of source location on N removal and watershed N export has not been quantified.

Chemical cues for sea lamprey migration [PDF]

open access: yesNature Chemical Biology, 2005
During the past century, the sea lamprey colonized the Great Lakes of North America and decimated the commercial fishing industry. The isolation and characterization of a migratory pheromone from the sea lamprey expands options for control of this invading species.

A Comprehensive Analysis of Fibrillar Collagens in Lamprey Suggests a Conserved Role in Vertebrate Musculoskeletal Evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Vertebrates have distinct tissues which are not present in invertebrate chordates nor other metazoans. The rise of these tissues also coincided with at least one round of whole-genome duplication as well as a suite of lineage-specific segmental ...

Transcriptional Basis of Copper-Induced Olfactory Impairment in the Sea Lamprey, a Primitive Invasive Fish

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Olfaction mediates behaviors necessary for survival and reproduction in fishes. Anthropogenic inputs of contaminants into aquatic environments, specifically copper, are known to disrupt a broad range of olfactory-mediated behaviors and can cause long ...

Functional anatomy, jaw mechanisms, and feeding behavior of Dunkleosteus terrelli (Placodermi, Arthrodira)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...
