Invasive and native populations of the Amazonian fishes ‘peacock bass’Cichla monoculus and of a not yet described species ‘blue tucunaré’ here referred as Cichla sp. ‘Azul’ were analysed for genetic diversity using the hypervariable domain of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region plus steady diagnostic random amplified polymorphi...... hiện toàn bộ

Human beings may affect the welfare of fish through fisheries, aquaculture and a number of other activities. There is no agreement on just how to weigh the concern for welfare of fish against the human interests involved, but ethical frameworks exist that suggest how this might be approached.Different definitions of animal welfare focus on an animal's condition, on its sub...... hiện toàn bộ
Identification and expression of the laboratory of genetics and physiology 2 gene in common carp Cyprinus carpioJournal of Fish Biology - Tập 86 Số 1 - Trang 74-91 - 2015

In this study, a laboratory of genetics and physiology 2 gene (lgp2) from common carp Cyprinus carpio was isolated and characterized. The full‐length complementary (c)DNA of lgp2 was 3061 bp and encoded a polypeptide of 680 amino acids, with an estimated molecular mass of 77 341·2 Da and a predicted isoelectri...... hiện toàn bộ
Cold shocks: a stressor for common carpJournal of Fish Biology - Tập 57 Số 4 - Trang 881-894 - 2000

The stress response of common carp Cyprinus carpio was studied by evaluating plasma cortisol, glucose and lactate after single or multiple rapid temperature drops (ΔT: 7, 9 or 11° C). All three amplitudes used induced a significant rise in plasma cortisol levels. Peaks occurred within 20 min after onset of the cold shock. No stress‐related secondary metabolic changes were observed in any o...... hiện toàn bộ
Seasonal changes in the hypo‐osmoregulatory ability of brook charr: the role of environmental factorsJournal of Fish Biology - Tập 56 Số 2 - Trang 347-373 - 2000
Guy Claireaux, Céline Audet
In winter, brook charr Salvelinus fontinalis demonstrated poor osmoregulatory ability. Saltwater (SW) transfer resulted in sharp increases in plasma osmolality and chloride levels, a decrease in white muscle water content and high mortality. A clear improvement of the hypo‐osmoregulatory mechanism e.ciency was observed in spring; by May or June, fish achieved ful...... hiện toàn bộ
