Aquatic Living Resources, 1989 The pathology of farmed tilapias is reviewed from presently available published data. The effects of intensive production systems on the aspects and importance of pathology are outlined. The main pathogenic organisms are recorded. For the moment, these pathogens seem to represent a potential threat, rather than being primary causes of losses ...

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract In teleost fishes, cortisol is the major corticoid and has both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid actions. However, how fish tissues discriminate between these distinct corticosteroid actions is unclear. In mammals, the major factors responsible for intracellular corticosteroid regulation are glucocorticoid receptors (grs) and the ...

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) biodiversity surveys have the power to transform the detection of species in natural environments, which is crucial for the conservation and management of freshwater, estuarine and marine environments. Globally, eDNA‐based analyses have increased significantly, with fishes being the most widely studied aquatic ...
