Scientists studying ability of mice to regenerate ear damage say therapies based on retinoic acid might work across various ...

In this important study, the authors reconstruct the evolutionary history of a large and widespread group of freshwater fishes (Nemacheilidae) across Eurasia since the early Eocene, based on molecular ...

Endothermic animals include mammals and birds, but there are also some fish capable of endothermy. Over hundreds of millions of years of evolution, at least 40 species of fish have overcome the ...

Phylogeny and synteny analyses allowed us to infer that these two genes likely result from teleost-specific whole genome duplication (3R). The two paralogous genes tac3a and tac3b have been conserved ...

Hausmann H, Meyerhof W, Zwiers H, Lederis K, Richter D. Teleost isotocin receptor: structure, functional expression, mRNA distribution and phylogeny. FEBS Lett (1995) 370:227–30. doi: ...

It can be tricky, however, to determine which bacterial varieties count as new species, Smith said. While scientists delineate species by whether they can interbreed, bacteria do not reproduce ...

FishComparativeAtlas is a snakemake pipeline to trace the evolution of sister duplicated chromosomes derived from whole genome duplication (WGD) in teleost genomes. If you use FishComparativeAtlas, ...

In teleost fishes, the independent evolution of electrosensory systems was repeatedly associated with evolutionary changes in brain region scaling that were independent of changes in brain–body ...

A similar process is also present in the modern teleost fishes, but it’s been obscured by eons of evolution. “When you looked for the human genetic elements of this organ development in zebrafish, you ...

A research team led by Prof. HE Shunping from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has discovered through genome sequencing that the non-teleost ray-finned fishes ...
