Interindividual Size Heteromorphism of NOR and Chromosomal Location of 5S Rrna Genes in Iheringichthys Labrosus
141 Vol.50, n. 1 : pp.141-146, January 2007 ISSN 1516-8913 Printed in Brazil BRAZILIAN ARCHIVES OF BIOLOGY AND TECHNOLOGY AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL Interindividual Size Heteromorphism of NOR and Chromosomal Location of 5S rRNA Genes in Iheringichthys labrosus Rafael Augusto de Carvalho and Ana Lúcia Dias * Universidade Estadual de Londrina; Departamento de Biologia Geral; CCB; [email protected]; C. P. 6001; 86051-970; Londrina - PR - Brasil ABSTRACT Twenty-five specimens of Iheringichthys labrosus from the Capivara Reservoir were analysed cytogenetically. AgNORs were detected in a pair of ST chromosomes, in the telomeric region of the long arm. Some individuals showed size heteromorphism of this region between homologous chromosomes. Treatment with CMA 3 displayed GC-rich regions corresponding to the AgNOR pair, plus other fluorescent staining. In situ hybridization by fluorescence (FISH) with the 18S rDNA probe showed only one pair of stained chromosomes, confirming the heteromorphism observed with AgNO 3 and CMA 3 in some individuals. The 5S rDNA probe revealed telomeric staining on the long arm of a pair of chromosomes of the ST-A group, probably different from the NOR pair. Key words : F ish chromosome, AgNOR, in situ hibridization, chromomycin A 3, heteromorphism INTRODUCTION used in chromosome preparations of fish to demonstrate the location of NORs, because Ribosomal cistrons are organized in multiple according to Salvadori et al . (1995), these regions copies that are repeated in tandem throughout the are associated with DNA families rich in GC cellular genome. Two different arrangements are bases. More recently, FISH with rDNA probes has known: one that contains 45S ribosomal DNA been utilized with precision to determine the exact (rDNA) which codes for 28S, 5.8S and 18S location and number of ribosomal cístrons. -
Iheringichthys Labrosus, Pimelodidae)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 9(4): 889-894, 2011 Copyright © 2011 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Sound production and pectoral spine locking in a Neotropical catfish (Iheringichthys labrosus, Pimelodidae) Javier S. Tellechea1, Franco Teixeira-de Mello2,3, Iván Gonzalez-Bergonzoni2,3 and Nicolás Vidal2 Catfishes may have two sonic organs: pectoral spines for stridulation and swimbladder drumming muscles. The aim of this study was to characterize the sound production of the catfish Iheringichthys labrosus. The I. labrosus male and female emits two different types of sounds: stridulatory sounds (655.8 + 230 Hz) consisting of a train of pulses, and drumming sounds (220 + 46 Hz), which are composed of single-pulse harmonic signals. Stridulatory sounds are emitted during abduction of the pectoral spine. At the base of the spine there is a dorsal process that bears a series of ridges on its latero-ventral surface, and by pressing the ridges against the groove (with an unspecialized rough surface) during a fin sweep, the animal produce a series of short pulses. Drumming sound is produced by an extrinsic sonic muscle, originated on a flat tendon of the transverse process of the fourth vertebra and inserted on the rostral and ventral surface of the swimbladder. The sounds emitted by both mechanisms are emitted in distress situation. Distress was induced by manipulating fish in a laboratory tank while sounds were recorded. Our results indicate that the catfish initially emits a stridulatory sound, which is followed by a drumming sound. Simultaneous production of stridulatory and drumming sounds was also observed. The catfish drumming sounds were lower in dominant frequency than stridulatory sounds, and also exhibited a small degree of dominant frequency modulation. -

Rua Horácio Trajano de Oliveira, Cristo Redentor, 58020-540 João Pessoa, PB, Brazil. 2 Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The present study investigated the reproductive biology of Sciades herzbergii in the Paraíba do Norte River Estuary, Brazil. We aimed to characterize the reproduction of the species with respect to sex ratio, spawning season, condition factor and length at first maturity. Specimens were captured between August 2009 and July 2010 in a stretch of the main channel of the estuary. In the laboratory, they were measured, weighed and macroscopically classified with regard to sex and gonad development stage, and their gonads were weighted. The monthly distribution of the sexes and their respective stages of maturation were determined. The gonadosomatic index (GSI), condition factor (K) and the length at first maturity were calculated for males and females. The sex ratio was determined monthly and through- out the entire study period and the chi-square test was used to evaluate if the sex ratio differed from 1:1. The Pearson’s correlation test was used to determine the correlation between GSI and K values. A total of 260 individuals were captured. It was impossible to determine the sex of 32 individuals, possibly due to their young age. The sex ratio did not differ throughout the overall study period, but significant differences were found in December and May, with a pre- dominance of females, and in March, when males predominated. -
Induced Spawning and Reproductive Variables of the Catfish Lophiosilurus Alexandri Steindachner, 1876 (Siluriformes: Pseudopimelodidae)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 11(3):607-614, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Induced spawning and reproductive variables of the catfish Lophiosilurus alexandri Steindachner, 1876 (Siluriformes: Pseudopimelodidae) Hélio Batista dos Santos1, Edson Vieira Sampaio2, Fábio Pereira Arantes3 and Yoshimi Sato2 Lophiosilurus alexandri is an endemic fish from the São Francisco River basin, Brazil. The aim of this study was to induce L. alexandri to spawn and to obtain data on several reproductive variables for this species. For induced spawning, adults were submitted to Cyprinus carpio pituitary homogenate (CPH). Nine of the 12 females (75%) responded positively to the treatment. The stripping of oocytes was performed 8.4 h after the second dose of CPH with the water temperature maintained at 26ºC. The number of stripped oocytes per gram of ova was 74 ± 5 oocytes g-1, and the mean oocyte diameter was 3.1 ± 0.2 and 3.6 ± 0.2 mm, before and after hydration, respectively. The oocytes were opaque, yellowish, demersal, highly adhesive, and covered by a gelatinous coat. The total fecundity was 4,534 ± 671 oocytes, and the fertilization rate was 59%. The initial and final fertilities were 2,631 ± 740 and 1,542 ± 416 embryos, respectively. Larval hatching occurred up to 56 h after fertilization, and the larvae had a total length of 8.4 ± 0.1 mm. This work provides important biological information for L. alexandri that can be used for management and conservation of this species.

Goliath Catfish Spawning in the Far Western Amazon Confirmed by the Distribution of Mature Adults, Drifting Larvae and Migrating Juveniles
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Goliath catfish spawning in the far western Amazon confirmed by the distribution of mature adults, Received: 28 June 2016 Accepted: 28 December 2016 drifting larvae and migrating Published: 06 February 2017 juveniles Ronaldo B. Barthem1, Michael Goulding2, Rosseval G. Leite3, Carlos Cañas2, Bruce Forsberg3, Eduardo Venticinque4, Paulo Petry5, Mauro L. de B. Ribeiro6, Junior Chuctaya7 & Armando Mercado2 We mapped the inferred long-distance migrations of four species of Amazonian goliath catfishes (Brachyplatystoma rousseauxii, B. platynemum, B. juruense and B. vaillantii) based on the presence of individuals with mature gonads and conducted statistical analysis of the expected long-distance downstream migrations of their larvae and juveniles. By linking the distribution of larval, juvenile and mature adult size classes across the Amazon, the results showed: (i) that the main spawning regions of these goliath catfish species are in the western Amazon; (ii) at least three species—B. rousseauxii, B. platynemum, and B. juruense—spawn partially or mainly as far upstream as the Andes; (iii) the main spawning area of B. rousseauxii is in or near the Andes; and (iv) the life history migration distances of B. rousseauxii are the longest strictly freshwater fish migrations in the world. These results provide an empirical baseline for tagging experiments, life histories extrapolated from otolith microchemistry interpretations and other methods to establish goliath catfish migratory routes, their seasonal timing and possible return (homing) to western headwater tributaries where they were born. The Amazon has two main groups of migratory fish species, and they belong to the orders Siluriformes (catfishes) and Characiformes (characins)1–3. -
