Draft genome of the Northern snakehead, Channa argus
The Northern snakehead (Channa argus), a member of the Channidae family of the Perciformes, is an economically important freshwater fish native to East Asia. In North America, it has become notorious as an intentionally released invasive species. Its ability to breathe air with gills and migrate short distances over land makes it a good model for bimodal breath research. Therefore, recent resea...
متن کاملFirst Record of a Northern Snakehead (Channa argus Cantor) Nest in North America
A population of Channa argus (Northern Snakehead) has been established in the Potomac River catchment, VA and MD, for approximately ten years, and is increasing rapidly in abundance. Little is known about life-history strategies of this species in North American environments. We report the fi rst discovery of a Northern Snakehead nest in North America and discuss some of its nesting habits. Adu...
متن کاملDoes air-breathing meet metabolic demands of the juvenile snakehead, Channa argus, in multiple conditions
The objective of this study was to examine how the respiratory metabolism of the snakehead Channa argus changed when it shifted from breathing water to breathing air, and how increased metabolic demands caused by temperature, feeding, and exhaustive exercise affect its survival in air. The results demonstrated that the oxygen consumption rate (MO2) of the snakehead was lower for aerial respirat...
متن کاملAn NGS-based approach for the identification of sex-specific markers in snakehead (Channa argus)
We described a next generation sequencing (NGS)-based approach to identify sex-specific markers and subsequently determine whether a species has male or female heterogamety. To test the accuracy of this technique, we examined the snakehead (Channa argus), which is economically important freshwater fish in China. Males grow faster than females, and there is significant interest in developing met...
متن کاملGenetic diversity based on SSR analysis of the cultured snakehead fish, Channa argus, (Channidae) in China.
The snakehead fish Channa argus is an important food fish in China. We identified six microsatellite loci for C. argus. These six microsatellite loci and four other microsatellite markers were used to analyze genetic diversity in four cultured populations of C. argus (SD, JX, HN, and ZJ) and determine their relationships. A total of 154 alleles were detected at the 10 microsatellite loci. The a...
