Through the study of the phylogeographic structure and demographic history of the common goby, Pomatoschistus microps, the influence of Quaternary climatic changes on the evolutionary history of coastal and marine fishes is investigated. Because of its sedentary life cycle in Mediterranean lagoons, it is also a good model to study more specifically if the formation of lagoons during the Holocen...

A new goby species Tridentiger radiatus sp. nov. is described from Zhuhai, Guangdong Province of China. The new species, found in sympatry with a widely distributed barbeled congener Tridentiger barbatus (Günther, 1861), is one of the only two Tridentiger species known to possess mandibular and cheek barbels. Tridentiger radiatus is diagnosed by having higher longitudinal and transverse scale c...

European eel proteins hydrolysates (EPHs) were produced from A. anguilla muscle protein and isolate using Purafect®, goby crude proteases B. invictae proteases. EPHs had high contents displayed diverse molecular mass distributions. Muscle (MPHs) (PIHs) obtained both by Purafect® the highest antibacterial activity. PIHs emulsifying stability. MPHs higher chelating effects. ability to prevent ble...

The structure of the testis of the goby Glossogobius olivaceus was histologically studied. The testis was a small elongate organ and was semicircular or reverse triangle in shape in cross section. The testis was composed of two main parts; peripheral seminiferous region and central large glandular region. Seminiferous region was mainly composed of seminiferous lobules. The cyst of germ cells co...

The neurohypophysial hormones, arginine vasotocin and isotocin, regulate both hydromineral balance and social behaviors in fish. In the amphibious mudskipper, Periophthalmus modestus, we previously found arginine-vasotocin-specific regulation of aggressive behavior, including migration of the submissive subordinate into water. This migration also implies the need for adaptation to dehydration. ...
