Expression patterns of melanin‐related genes are linked to crypsis and conspicuousness in a pumpkin toadlet

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 15, August 2025.
Abstract Colour signals play pivotal roles in different communication systems, and the evolution of these characters has been associated with behavioural ecology, integumentary production processes and perceptual mechanisms of the species involved. Here, we present the first insight into the molecular and histological basis of skin colour polymorphism ...

Malignant Mixed Irido‐Melanophoroma in a Betta splendens with Concurrent Mycobacterium chelonae Isolation—A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 48, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT A 10‐month‐old intact male blue Siamese fighting fish (Betta splendens) was presented to the Purdue University Small Animal Hospital with multiple bilateral masses on the caudal flank. Comprehensive evaluation using impression cytology, histopathology and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed a tumour composed of a mixed‐cell ...

Fish Evo‐Devo: Moving Toward Species‐Specific and Knowledge‐Based Interactome

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 3, Page 158-168, May 2025.
Gaining knowledge‐based, fish‐specific interactomes is crucial in Evo‐Devo biology for uncovering how gene networks drive the unique adaptations and diversity of fish, the most diverse vertebrates. These interactomes also provide insights into conserved and derived mechanisms of vertebrate evolution, highlighting the molecular basis of key evolutionary

Transcriptome analysis reveals the candidate genes associated with skin color variation in Luciobarbus capito

open access: yesAquaculture Reports
The wild Luciobarbus capito exhibits gray-black dorsal and silvery-white abdomen. Recently, a few cultured individuals developed yellow mutation. The yellow Aral barbel represents a valuable germplasm resource due to its stable genetic body color and ...

SOME NEUROHUMORAL EVIDENCE FOR DOUBLE INNERVATION OF XANTHOPHORES IN KILLIFISH (FUNDULUS)

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1942
In a majority of over 50 Fundulus majalis tested, the part of a previously faded primary denervated caudal band flanked by two new secondary bands showed pigment dispersal in its xanthophores, as if affected by the stronger dispersal in those of the adjacent secondary bands.

Pituitary and Nervous Control of Chromatic Responses, Especially of Xanthophores, in Killifish (Fundulus)

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1942
Previous work on killifishes has shown the yellow pigmentary effectors (xanthophores) of Fundulus heteroclitus and F. majalis to be subject to humoral control and to direct, probably double, nervous control permitting independence from melanophore responses.1 A pituitary hormone dominates the xanthophores of the minnow Phoxinus,2 as it does amphibian ...
