Induced breeding of knife fish, Notopterus notopterus, using pituitary gland extract, human chorionic gonadotropin, and luteinizing hormone releasing hormone‐analog hormones

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract This study was performed to determine the efficiency of various hormones on the ovulation of knife fish, Notopterus notopterus, in captivity. In total, 81 fish were grouped into nine treatments with three replicates, maintaining the sex ratio 1:2 (male to female).

Telomere Length Is Determined by Intrinsic Factors and Is Shortened During Drought Years in Gallotia galloti

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Telomere dynamics in ectotherms remain poorly understood relative to endotherms, yet are increasingly relevant in the context of climate change. Here, we used model‐averaged GLMMs and hierarchical partitioning to disentangle intrinsic and extrinsic drivers of relative telomere length in the Western‐Canaries Lizard (Gallotia galloti) across a 10‐year ...

Decreased survival of mosquito cells after stable transfection with a Drosophila ecdysteroid response element: Possible involvement of a 40 kDa DNA binding protein

open access: yesJournal of Insect Science, 2002
Homologous transfection systems provide a useful tool for characterizing promoters and other regulatory elements from cloned genes. We have used cultured Aedes albopictus C7-10 mosquito cells to evaluate expression of 20-hydroxyecdysone-inducible genes ...

Ultrastructural and cytochemical study on vitellogenesis in the diphyllidean cestode Echinobothrium euterpes (Echinobothriidae) and its phylogenetical implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The first description of vitellogenesis in the Diphyllidea is presented in this paper. Though the type of vitellogenesis and mature vitellocyte in Echinobothriumeuterpesappear to be unique among the Eucestoda, however, they somewhat resemble that ...
