Tropical fishes dominate temperate reef fish communities within western Japan. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Climate change is resulting in rapid poleward shifts in the geographical distribution of tropical and subtropical fish species. We can expect that such range shifts are likely to be limited by species-specific resource requirements, with temperate rocky ...

Comprehensive spatial distribution of tropical fish assemblages from multifrequency acoustics and video fulfils the island mass effect framework [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Tropical marine ecosystems are highly biodiverse and provide resources for small-scale fisheries and tourism. However, precise information on fish spatial distribution is lacking, which limits our ability to reconcile exploitation and conservation.

Mangroves enhance the biomass of coral reef fish communities in the Caribbean [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2004
Mangrove forests are one of the world's most threatened tropical ecosystems with global loss exceeding 35% (ref. 1). Juvenile coral reef fish often inhabit mangroves, but the importance of these nurseries to reef fish population dynamics has not been ...

Neglected Biodiversity of Fish Assemblages Associated With Antipatharia (Black Corals) on Tropical Shallow Reef Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Addressing anthropogenic threats compromising the persistence of tropical marine ecosystems requires a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental ecological functions organisms fulfill in these realms.

A dual colour fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay for identifying the zoonotic malaria parasite Plasmodium knowlesi with a potential application for the specific diagnosis of knowlesi malaria in peripheral-level laboratories of Southeast Asia

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Plasmodium knowlesi is primarily responsible for zoonotic malaria in several Southeast Asian countries. Precise identification of the parasite in the blood of patients presently relies on an expensive and elaborate PCR procedure because ...

GCEN: An Easy-to-Use Toolkit for Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis and lncRNAs Annotation

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022
Gene co-expression network analysis has been widely used in gene function annotation, especially for long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). However, there is a lack of effective cross-platform analysis tools.

Chromosomal-level assembly of the Asian Seabass genome using long sequence reads and multi-layered scaffolding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report here the ~670 Mb genome assembly of the Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer), a tropical marine teleost. We used long-read sequencing augmented by transcriptomics, optical and genetic mapping along with shared synteny from closely related fish ...

A new species of Hemibrycon (Characiformes: Characidae), a freshwater fish from the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta, Caribbean drainage, Colombia

open access: yesCuadernos de investigación UNED, 2015
Hemibrycon is a group of freshwater characid fish species first recognized by Günther (1864) as a subgenus of Tetragonopterus, and now included in the subfamily Stevardiinae. There are 21 species recorded from the rivers of Colombia, but only one species,

Intraspecific variation in thermal tolerance differs between tropical and temperate fishes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
How ectothermic animals will cope with global warming is a critical determinant of the ecological impacts of climate change. There has been extensive study of upper thermal tolerance limits among fish species but how intraspecific variation in tolerance ...
