Advancing Ecological Understanding and Sustainable Management of Small Pelagic Fish

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 850-864, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish (SPF) are critical to the trophodynamic structure and function of marine systems and support some of the most valuable and socially important fisheries worldwide. Their “boom and bust” population dynamics, shifts in distribution, and importance as forage resources for other fish stocks place unique challenges to assessing ...

Reproductive timing and fecundity in the Neotropical lizard Enyalius perditus (Squamata: Leiosauridae)

open access: yesActa Herpetologica, 2017
Enyalius perditus is a semi-arboreal lizard species whose reproduction is poorly known. Here, we combine information obtained from preserved and live specimens to describe the reproductive timing (vitellogenesis, gravidity, and egg-laying) and fecundity (

Gonadal Histology and Spawning Season of Otolithoides pama in the Thanlwin River Estuary

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The spawning season of Otolithoides pama in the Thanlwin estuary was estimated through gonadosomatic index (GSI) and histological analyses of gonadal development. A total of 290 specimens (240 females and 50 males) were collected monthly from 5 sites—Ahlat, Kyauk Tan, Daye, Nyaung Pin Seik and Tarana—between January and December 2024.

Nuclear Receptors in Mosquito Vitellogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Zoologist, 1999
Synopsis. Vitellogenesis in insects involves the coordinated activity of the fat body, which produces large amounts of yolk protein precursors (YP), and oocytes, which specifically accumulate these proteins. The expression of YP genes is achieved through strict sex-, tissue-, and hormone-specific control in the female fat body.

The dynamic landscape of gene regulation during Bombyx mori oogenesis

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background Oogenesis in the domestic silkworm (Bombyx mori) is a complex process involving previtellogenesis, vitellogenesis and choriogenesis. During this process, follicles show drastic morphological and physiological changes.

Revisiting Maturity Data: Using Oocyte Diameter and Gonadosomatic Index to Retroactively Apply a New Maturity Scale to Greenland Halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 601-611, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) is a deep‐water flatfish which lives at temperatures of 1°C–4°C and produces large eggs (> 3 mm). The combination of low temperatures and large eggs has resulted in an unusual ovary development cycle, with vitellogenesis taking more than 1 year.

Reproductive biology, artificial reproduction, and breeding strategies of the red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii): A review

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) is widely cultured and consumed due to its palatable meat and high nutritional value. It also becomes the most valuable crustacean species because of its amazing yield and economic value in China. However, P.

Dietary Supplementation With Icariin Affects Estrogen Synthesis, Vitellogenesis, and Oocyte Development in the Chinese Mitten Crab, Eriocheir sinensis

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
In Eriocheir sinensis aquaculture, crabs feeding on an artificial diet without steroid hormones available in ice-fresh fish or snails show delayed ovarian maturation and late listing.

Evaluation of physiological and molecular tools to assess ovarian stages in the black tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon)

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Advancing knowledge of the molecular mechanisms governing vitellogenesis and spawning in the black tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, requires an efficient method for identifying ovarian stages. Several physiological and molecular tools have been employed to define these stages in laboratory studies.
