Effect of salinity on the oxygen consumption of larvae of the silversides Odontesthes hatcheri and O. bonariensis (Osteichthyes, Atherinopsidae)

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2008
Starved larvae of the silversides O. hatcheri (2- and 5-days-old) and Odontesthes bonariensis (5-days-old) were used to compare the oxygen consumption rates at 0, 5, 10, 20 and 30 ppt salinity. Oxygen consumption of O. hatcheri and O.

Macroparasites of silversides (Atherinopsidae: Odontesthes) in Argentina

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2016
This study presents new geographical distribution records for the macroparasites of the marine Odontesthes nigricans (Richardson, 1848) (89 wild specimens), and for the freshwater silversides Odontesthes bonariensis (Valenciennes, 1835) (43 wild and 108 ...

Review of the Silversides of Iran (Family Atherinidae)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2015
The silversides or sand smelts are found in coastal areas of temperate to tropical seas and in fresh water. There are about 14 genera and 68 species with only one native species in the Caspian Sea basin, Atherina caspia.

Modulation of miR-429 during osmotic stress in the silverside Odontesthes humensis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Silverside fish inhabit marine coastal waters, coastal lagoons, and estuarine regions in southern South America. Although silversides are not fully adapted to freshwater, they can tolerate a wide range of salinity variations.

Assessment of Heavy Metal Contamination in Two Edible Fish Species and Water from North Patagonia Estuary

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Estuaries worldwide have been severely degraded and become reservoirs for many types of pollutants, such as heavy metals. This study investigated the levels of Cd, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn in water and whole fish.

Natural and synthetic microfibers alter growth and behavior in early life stages of estuarine organisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Increasing shares of microfibers are being detected in environmental samples and a closer look to identify the risk associated with them using ecologically relevant endpoints, especially at sensitive early life stages, is needed.

Footprints of local adaptation span hundreds of linked genes in the Atlantic silverside genome

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2020
The study of local adaptation in the presence of ongoing gene flow is the study of natural selection in action, revealing the functional genetic diversity most relevant to contemporary pressures.

High levels of docosahexaenoic acid are present in eight New World silversides (Pisces: Atherinopsidae) [PDF]

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology, 2020
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is the most critical and least available omega-3 fatty acid in the Western human diet. Currently, the source of omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) is mainly dependent on wild fisheries, making this ...

Are long-term growth responses to elevated pCO2 sex-specific in fish?

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Whether marine fish will grow differently in future high pCO2 environments remains surprisingly uncertain. Long-term and whole-life cycle effects are particularly unknown, because such experiments are logistically challenging, space demanding, exclude ...
