Experimentally testing the function of anal fins in the bluefin killifish, Lucania goodei

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anal fins are thought to affect many functions, including swimming, sperm flow and signalling. However, there are few experimental demonstrations of these functions. We manipulated male anal fins by placing a cut in the fin. We found that cut males had lower fertilization rates than uncut males.

Evolution of Bony Fish: Without a Cryptic Sarcopterygian, It May Have Evolved Actinopterygians into Terrestrial Animals

Diversity
The evolution of Osteichthyes began with a split into two major lineages: Sarcopterygii (lobe-finned fishes) and Actinopterygii (ray-finned fishes).

Growth‐regulating proteins differ between British seawater fish species, shedding light on their ecological adaptations

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wnt proteins are a family of molecules that help control how cells grow, develop and communicate – processes that are fundamental to the development and health of all animals. Although Wnt pathways have been studied extensively in model species, very little is known about how they operate in marine fish.

First analysis of digenean populations in Seriola dumerili (Risso, 1810), (Teleostei: Carangidae) from the Algerian Coast: New host record for Lecithocladium excisum (Rudolphi, 1819) Lühe, 1901

Helminthologia
The primary objective of this study is to describe and analyze the digenean fauna of the greater amberjack, Seriola dumerili, in Algeria. To achieve this, a total of 121 specimens of S.

Transcriptionally distinct B cell profiles in systemic immune tissues and peritoneal cavity of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) infected with salmonid alphavirus subtype 3

Frontiers in Immunology
Teleost B cells producing neutralizing antibodies contribute to protection against salmonid alphavirus (SAV) infection, the etiological agent of pancreas disease, thereby reducing mortality and disease severity. Our previous studies show differences in B

Diet of juvenile skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris: Ontogenetic shifts, predator–prey size ratios and mouth gape allometry

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris inhabits Gulf of Mexico drainages, primarily the Mississippi River Basin, and estuarine environments in the Gulf of Mexico. The trophic ecology of the skipjack herring is poorly understood, therefore we quantified the length, mouth gape and gut contents of juvenile skipjack herring from the Mississippi ...

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.

Ultrasonography as a non‐invasive technique to assess the effects of diet on the ovaries of female European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Broodstock management in aquaculture aims to optimise larval production to meet farm demand, which requires precise monitoring of the reproductive cycle. Traditional methods such as histology often require killing of fish, making them unsuitable for monitoring reproductive dynamics at fish level.

The impact of isosmotic conditions on the metabolism and hypoxia tolerance of a reportedly oxyconforming teleost

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fish must manage the competing demands of ion balance and gas exchange across the gills – a physiological tension known as the osmorespiratory compromise. In dynamic estuarine environments, the osmorespiratory compromise may be exacerbated by variable salinity and periods of hypoxia that demand high respiratory work.
