No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-01-01; Individuals of the same species may present different reproductive tactics depending on the environment in which they develop and mature. The present study aimed to define the gonadal development phases of males and females of Astyanax rivularis and to carry out a comparative analysis of the reproductiv...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-01-01; Gynogenesis is a chromosomal manipulation technique where an offspring is generated exclusively from maternal inheritance. In the yellowtail tetra (Astyanax altiparanae) almost all gynogenetic fish were females, suggesting a genetic sex determination system of XX/XY. However, due to environmental (e.g. ...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-12-01; B chromosomes are additional dispensable elements to the standard chromosomal set of an organism. In most cases, their transmission differs from Mendelian patterns, leading to their accumulation or extinction. The present study aimed to describe, for the first time, the transmission pattern of B chromos...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2010-01-01; Prochilodus lineatus is widely used in pisciculture projects, mainly in the south of Brazil. It shows a basic karyotype composed of 2n = 54 chromosomes, in addition to as many as seven supernumerary chromosomes, also known as B-chromosomes. These additional small chromosomes are frequently heterochromat...

A diploid number of 56 chromosomes and a single argyrophilic nucleolus organizer region (Ag-NO...
In freshwater fish with external fertilization, sperm sampling can be contaminated with urine, which triggers motility and gives rise to decreased fertilization success. The maintenance of freshwater fish in hyperosmotic conditions may reduce urine production and improve sperm quality. Thus, the aim of this work was to verify if acute exposure to various NaCl concentrations improves sperm quality in the yellowt...
