Morphological comparison of the ontogeny of skin pigmentation in Senegalese sole larvae from the control (A–F) and ARA (A’–F’) groups.

open access: yes, 2013
A–A’) 22 dph, B–B’) 27 dph, C–C’) 33 dph, D–D’) 35 dph, E–E’) 41 dph, F–F’) 47 dph. At 22 dph, the pigmentation pattern of larvae from both dietary groups is similar, showing a very dense net of melanophores, xanthophores and leucophores that covers the ...

Pterin-Based Red Coloration Predicts the Outcome of Male–Male Competition in Guinan Toad-Headed Lizard

open access: yesAnimals
Animal coloration offers a unique opportunity to explore the evolutionary mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity. Conspicuous coloration caused by pigments plays a crucial role in social signaling across multiple species by conveying information ...

The Cellular Expression and Genetics of Purple Body (Pb) inPoecilia reticulata, and its Interactions with Asian Blau (Ab) and Blond (bb) under Reflected and Transmitted Light

open access: yes, 2017
Mature Purple Body and Non-Purple Body male guppies differ from each other in several ways. Non-Purple males may have large numbers of xanthophores, erythrophores, and blue iridophores, in addition to the usual dendritic, corolla and punctate ...

Sepiapterin reductase (Spra and Sprb) regulate carotenoid and pteridine metabolism influencing the koi carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) coloration

open access: yesAquaculture Reports
The evolution of teleost coloration is strongly linked with the fish-specific genome duplication (FSGD). Sepiapterin reductase (Spr) is commonly required in pteridine pigment synthesis and two paralogs are found in teleosts.

Thyroid hormone regulates both melanin and non-melanin pigmentation in Sinibrama taeniatus via three types of chromophores

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
IntroductionBody color is a prominent phenotypic trait and a significant economic characteristic in fish. While current research mainly examines the effects of genetic factors, less emphasis has been placed on the role of endogenous hormones in fish body

Data from: Body coloration and mechanisms of colour production in Archelosauria: the case of deirocheline turtles

open access: yes, 2019
Animal body coloration is a complex trait resulting from the interplay of multiple mechanisms. While many studies address the functions of animal coloration, the mechanisms of colour production still remain unknown in most taxa.

メダカ摘出うろこ黄色素胞に対するKイオンの働き方

open access: yes, 1969
The fresh water teleost, Oryzias latipes (the wild type) possesses in the dermis three kinds of chromatophores : the. melanophores, the xanthophores and the guanophores. The melanophores are the most conspicuous type of the chromatophores in the teleosts

Xanthophore migration from the dermis to the epidermis and dermal remodeling during Salamandra salamandra salamandra (L.) larval development

open access: yes, 2003
During larval development of Salamandra salamandra salamandra chromatophores organize to form the definitive pigment pattern constituted by a black background with yellow patches that are characterized by epidermal xanthophores and dermal iridophores ...
