Fish genomes flying
Introduction Fish models have become very popular during the past decade (see Fig. 1 for phylogenetic relationships). Recently established models for genomic studies (the Japanese and freshwater pufferfish, Fugu rubripes and Tetraodon nigroviridis, respectively) and for developmental biology (the zebrafish, Danio rerio) are now the focus of interest of many biologists, although ‘old’ models are...
متن کاملDuplicated RNA genes in teleost Fish genomes
Teleost fishes share a duplication of their entire genomes. We report here on a computational survey of structured non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in teleost genomes, focusing on the fate of fish-specific duplicates. As in other metazoan groups, we find evidence of a large number (11,543) of structured RNAs, most of which (~86%) are clade-specific or evolve so fast that their tetrapod homologs cannot ...
متن کاملAerodynamic characteristics of flying fish in gliding flight.
The flying fish (family Exocoetidae) is an exceptional marine flying vertebrate, utilizing the advantages of moving in two different media, i.e. swimming in water and flying in air. Despite some physical limitations by moving in both water and air, the flying fish has evolved to have good aerodynamic designs (such as the hypertrophied fins and cylindrical body with a ventrally flattened surface...
متن کاملComparative Analysis of CpG Islands in Four Fish Genomes
There has been much interest in CpG islands (CGIs), clusters of CpG dinucleotides in GC-rich regions, because they are considered gene markers and involved in gene regulation. To date, there has been no genome-wide analysis of CGIs in the fish genome. We first evaluated the performance of three popular CGI identification algorithms in four fish genomes (tetraodon, stickleback, medaka, and zebra...
متن کاملAndrogenesis: The Best Tool for Manipulation of Fish Genomes
Androgenesis involves the development of an organism with only paternal chromosomes. The induction of androgenesis using diploid sperm, highly effective UV-irradiation of egg, dispermy using heterologous eggs, the possibility of producing supermales for all male production and the recovery of cryopreserved sperm are recent technological developments in androgenesis in fish. However, few researc...
