Olfactory Sensory Neuron Morphotypes in the Featherback Fish, Notopterus notopterus (Osteoglossiformes: Notopteridae)
BACKGROUND As in other vertebrates, olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) in fishes are the main components of sensory part of olfactory epithelium that relay olfactory information (smell and taste) to the brain. PURPOSE Objective of the present study was to analyze if any polymorphism occurs in the OSNs in a featherback fish, Notopterus notopterus as far as the teleost lineage is concerned. MET...
متن کاملGenetic divergence in natural populations of bronze featherback, Notopterus notopterus (Osteoglossiformes: Notopteridae) from five Indian rivers, analyzed through mtDNA ATPase6/8 regions☆
The present study characterized 842 bp fragment of mitochondrial ATP synthase 6 and 8 (ATPase6/8) genes in Notopterus notopterus. In all, 97 samples of N. notopterus were collected from five distant rivers; viz Satluj, Gomti, Yamuna, Brahmaputra and Mahanadi representing 4 river basins in India. The analysis of variation revealed presence of 23 haplotypes in ATPase6/8 gene with haplotype divers...
متن کاملEffect of cortisol on female freshwater fish Notopterus notopterus.
In the present study, effect of cortisol on the ovary of the freshwater fish Notopterus notopterus was studied during four phases of the reproductive cycle. The hormone was injected 60microg/fish for ten days. Cortisol in fish is known to increase the metabolic activity. After the hormone treatment the ovarian somatic index and the hepatosomatic index increases during non breeding phase. The yo...
متن کاملComparative studies on blood electrolytes of the fresh water fish, Notopterus notopterus from three aquatic bodies
The present study is undertaken to determine baseline levels of blood electrolytes for the fish, N.notopterus collected from three different aquatic bodies situated at different locations around Gulbarga region. The electrolytes such as sodium and potassium levels are having some difference in the fish collected from the three aquatic bodies. The data for blood Sodium 88.49 ± 16.68 mmol/l. in t...
متن کاملEffect of cortisol on testis of freshwater fish Notopterus notopterus (Pallas).
Cortisol (20, 40 and 60 micrograms/fish for 10 days) treatment caused an increase in testicular-somatic index (TSI) in immature N. notopterus whereas in mature fish no change from that of controls was observed. Histology of testis indicated that spermatogenetic activity was activated in immature fish while it was inhibited in mature fish. Testicular cholesterol exhibited a similar response. The...
