Assessment of two minimally invasive methodologies for sex identification in the European eel, Anguilla anguilla

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sex is an important driver of variation in behaviour, ecology and physiology. Sex identification in the Critically Endangered European eel (Anguilla anguilla) currently requires fish sacrifice, or the use of morphological differences such as body length, which can be inaccurate in certain habitats and at intermediate body lengths.

Bony fish genomes: Status and gaps

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bony fish constitute an exceptionally species‐rich group of aquatic vertebrates, comprising more than 95% of all living fish. The adaptive processes on the diversity of environments they inhabit make them a highly diverse group from taxonomic, morphological and evolutionary standpoints.

Molecular insights into electroreceptor ribbon synapses from differential gene expression in sturgeon lateral line organs

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The expression of various genes involved in synapse development, stability and/or function was studied in developing mechanosensory neuromasts and electrosensory ampullary organs in sterlet sturgeon. Most were shared, including Slc17a8, Slc1a3 and Nrxn3, but Cbln18 was neuromast‐restricted and Tulp1 was ampullary organ‐restricted.

Transfer of royal fish and the non-evolutionary history of Black Sea sturgeons

Academia Biology
The evolutionary relationship between Caspian and Black Sea sturgeons has long attracted scholarly attention. Although the two basins have been hydrologically isolated for at least 5000 years, genetic studies reveal the presence of Black Sea ...

Integrated gut microbiome and serum metabolomics analysis to reveal seawater adaptation strategy in Chinese sturgeon

Aquaculture Reports
The structure of the fish gut microbiota changes with variations in the living environment, including salinity, which has been regarded as the most important environmental change factor in the transition of Chinese sturgeons, Acipenser sinensis, from ...

ABSTRACT I defend the non‐instrumentalist thesis that every adult member of a political society has a pro tanto fundamental moral right to an equal democratic say in determining the content of the laws to which she is subject. I begin by giving an account of an important kind of servility that has received only glancing notice in philosophical ...

Histological Study on the Gonads of Reared Juvenile Sturgeon

‬‭Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 1998
Histological studies are of the most adequate way to determine the physiological condition of fish organs. The present research was carried out in order to conduct a qualitative evaluation of the growth and development of the reproductive system of three
