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 ...

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
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

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)
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.

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 ...
