Biochemical Effects of Different Phenolic Compounds on Oreochromis Mossambicus (peters)

Euryhaline tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus

regulated by, and suited to, the environment in which they reproduce. In many teleosts, which spawn in either freshwater or seawater, sperm motility is initiated by osmotic shock when sperm are ejaculated. These osmolality dependent regulatory systems are quite different in freshwater cyprinid teleosts, such as carp, gold fish and zebrafish, and marine teleosts, such as the pufferfish and floun...

Impacts of Oreochromis mossambicus (Perciformes: Cichlidae) upon habitat segregation among cyprinodontids (Cyprinodontiformes) of a species flock in Mexico.

Five species of Cyprinodon in Laguna Chichancanab, Yucatan, Mexico comprise a young species flock whose ecology and evolution has not been thoroughly studied, but whose existence is threatened with extinction. Species flocks evolve in isolated areas where predators and competitors are absent. Since the description of the Chichancanab flock, Oreochromis mossambicus, a species introduced into the...

Effects of cortisol on ion regulation in developing tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) larvae on seawater adaptation.

The yolk diameter of cortisol-treated tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) larvae, immersed in freshwater (FW) containing 10 mg L-1 cortisol from 48 h postfertilization to 12 d posthatching, was significantly larger than that of control larvae after 8 d of treatment, suggesting that inhibition on larval growth occurred only after a long-term treatment with cortisol. Tilapia embryos or larvae treat...
