Corticosteroid and progesterone transactivation of mineralocorticoid receptors from Amur sturgeon and tropical gar [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 2016 The response to a panel of steroids by the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) from Amur sturgeon and tropical gar, two basal ray-finned fish, expressed in HEK293 cells was investigated. Half-maximal responses (EC50s) for transcriptional activation of sturgeon MR by 11-deoxycorticosterone, corticosterone, 11-deoxycortisol, cortisol and aldosterone, and ...

Use of Potato Starch in Diets of Tropical Gar (Atractosteus tropicus, Gill 1863) Larvae [PDF]
Fishes, 2017 Tropical gar, Atractosteus tropicus, is a carnivorous fish species from Southern México with high value and acceptance in local markets. Therefore, the present study aims to spare proteins in diets for larviculture of this species. An experiment was performed using three different experimental diets with increasing carbohydrate levels based on potato ...

Gut Microbiome Analysis In Adult Tropical Gars (Atractosteus tropicus) [PDF]
, 2019 AbstractTropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus), is freshwater and estuarine fish that has inhabited the Earth since the Mesozoic era, undergoing limited physiological variation ever since. This omnivorous fish is endemic to southern Mexico and part of Central America.

Developmental cardiorespiratory physiology of the air-breathing tropical gar,Atractosteus tropicus [PDF]
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2016 The physiological transition to aerial breathing in larval air-breathing fishes is poorly understood. We investigated gill ventilation frequency ( fG), heart rate ( fH), and air breathing frequency ( fAB) as a function of development, activity, hypoxia, and temperature in embryos/larvae from day (D) 2.5 to D30 posthatch of the tropical gar ...

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2019 Tropical gar ( Atractosteus tropicus ) aquaculture is a potential economic activity in southeast Mexico. This study analyzed the economic profitability of tropical gar grow-out using two commercial feeds (Silver Cup ® and Super ® ). The last one was designed based on the digestive physiology of the species. The experiment was conducted in six concrete
