A set of cytological studies performed in the utricle and saccule of Astronotus ocellatus (Teleostei, Percomorphi, Cichlidae) identified two basic types of hair cells and others with some intermediate characteristics. This paper reports on applying the same techniques to the saccule of Carassius auratus (Teleostei, Otophysi, Cyprinidae) and demonstrates similar types of hair cells to those foun...

A simple and direct immunosensor for the determination of carp (Carassius auratus) vitellogenin (Vtg), a female-specific protein, has been proposed based on an antibody-captured conducting polymer-coated electrode. The monoclonal antibody specific to carp (C. auratus) Vtg was immobilized by covalent coupling to the carboxylic acid group on the polymer. The antibody immobilization and antibody-a...

This study was carried out in the inland waters of Muğla Basin between 2018-2019. As a result field studies and literature, it determined that there were 36 species fish belonging to 17 families (Anguillidae, Atherinidae, Cobitidae, Leuciscidae, Cyprinidae, Gobionidae, Nemacheilidae, Aphaniidae, Poeciliidae, Blenniidae, Centrarchidae, Cichlidae, Gobiidae, Moronidae, Mugilidae, Salmonidae, Silur...

Trypanosoma danilewskyi Laveran & Mesnil, 1904 caused anorexia in experimentally infected goldfish Carassius auratus. This was most evident when the parasiternias were high. Some anorexic fish died of high parasitemias but those that s u ~ v e d the crisis returned to normal feeding.

A tetraploidization event took place in the cyprinid lineage leading to goldfishes about 15 million years ago. A PCR survey for Hox genes in the goldfish Carassius auratus auratus (Actinopterygii: Cyprinidae) was performed to assess the consequences of this genome duplication. Not surprisingly, the genomic organization of the Hox gene clusters of goldfish is similar to that of the closely relat...
