Ontogeny of Squamation in Swordfish, Xiphias gladius
Copeia, 2004Abstract Spinoid scales appear early in the development of Swordfish, Xiphias gladius, and are first discernable in the larval stage. Scales vary in form between two principal types: small single and multispined scales and large multispined scales.

LM and SEM study on the swordfish (Xiphias gladius) tongue
Tissue and Cell, 2017Swordfish (Xiphias gladius L. 1758) is a predatory and migratory fish. Its characteristic feature is a flat and sharp upper jaw forming a "sword". The adaptation of vertebrates, including fish, to their environment is strictly related to the capacity of feeding and is carried out by often severe modifications of the anatomy of the buccal cavity ...

Heat-producing organ of the swordfish (Xiphias gladius): A modified eye muscle
Journal of Morphology, 1997In swordfish (Xiphias gladius), the dorsal rectus muscle of the eye (M. rectus dorsalis) is partly differentiated for heat production similar to brown adipocytes. Other parts of the dorsal rectus show a typical muscular structure. This modified muscle and its anatomical relationships to neighboring organs were investigated using macroscopic dissections,

Kılıç balıklarının (Xiphias gladius) ilginç davranışları
2021Kılıç balığı, üst çenesindeki kılıca benzer keskin ve çok uzun uzantıdan dolayı adını rostrumundan (gaga) almıştır. Görünüşü ile son derece tehlikeli ve yırtıcı bir özellik gösterir. Tehlike anında kullandığı tek silahı kılıcıdır. Bu kılıçla 30 cm kalınlığındaki ahşabı delebilen kılıç balığı, teknelere rahatlıkla saldırabilir.

Swordfish Xiphias gladius diet in the Florida Straits
Bulletin of Marine Science, 2020Swordfish Xiphias gladius inhabit the Florida Straits year-round and provide a significant role in the food web as top-level predators. However, little is known about the diet composition and thus ecological role of swordfish in Florida. This study investigated swordfish diet by analyzing stomach contents of 131 swordfish in the Florida Straits from ...

Organochlorine compounds in swordfish (Xiphias gladius) from the Mediterranean Sea
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2010The Mediterranean swordfish (Xiphias gladius) is an intensively fished species of high commercial value. Due to the great use forhuman consumption, it is important to evaluate the presence of toxic contaminants in their fillets. Mono and non-ortho polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs), hexachlorobenzene (HCB), hexachlorocyclohexane isomers (HCHs), p,p′ and o,p ...

Authentication of swordfish (Xiphias gladius) by RT–PCR and FINS methodologies
European Food Research and Technology, 2011In the present study, two methods for the authentication of swordfish (Xiphias gladius) were developed. The first one is based on a TaqMan probe real-time PCR technology using the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI), while the second one is based on the phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences (forensically informative nucleotide sequencing, FINS) using ...

The composition of fatty acids in the tissues of Tunisian swordfish (Xiphias gladius)
Food Chemistry, 2009The objective of this study was to compare the composition of fatty acids stored in the various parts of swordfish. Muscle and organ sections of a series of swordfish samples were collected. Their chemical analysis allowed the classification of swordfish as a semi-fatty fish, with its byproducts totalling 35.6% of the total fatty acids (TFA) and its ...
