High variability in aggression and habituation to the mirror assay in ornamenta...
Silva, Melina Coelho da; Canário, Adelino V. M.; Hubbard, Peter C.; Cardoso, Sara D.; Gonçalves, David; da Silveira Gonçalves, David MiguelUnderstanding consistent inter-individual variability in animal behaviour, known as personality traits, is essential for exploring the mechanisms and evolutionary consequences of behavioural diversity. Aggressive behaviour influences survival, resource acquisition, and reproduction, so clarifying individual differences can enhance our understanding of ecological dynamics and improve experimental design accuracy...
Building a Portuguese coalition for biodiversity genomics
Marques, João P.; Alves, Paulo C.; Amorim, Isabel R.; Lopes, Ricardo J.; Moura, Monica; Myers, Eugene; Sim-sim, Manuela; Sousa-Santos, CarlaThe diverse physiography of the Portuguese land and marine territory, spanning from continental Europe to the Atlantic archipelagos, has made it an important repository of biodiversity throughout the Pleistocene glacial cycles, leading to a remarkable diversity of species and ecosystems. This rich biodiversity is under threat from anthropogenic drivers, such as climate change, invasive species, land use changes...

Biosensors based on stanniocalcin-1 protein antibodies thin films for prostate ...
Ferreira, Renato; Ribeiro, Paulo A.; Canário, Adelino V. M.; Raposo, MariaProstate cancer is one of the most prevalent tumors in men, accounting for about 7.3% of cancer deaths. Although there are several strategies for diagnosing prostate cancer, these are only accurate when the tumor is already at a very advanced stage, so early diagnosis is essential. Stanniocalcin 1 (STC1) is a secreted glycoprotein, which has been suggested as a tumor marker as its increased expression is associ...
New vectors of TTX analogues in the North Atlantic Coast: the edible crabs Afru...
Lage, Sandra; ten Brink, Felicitas; Canário, Adelino V. M.; Silva, José Paulo daTetrodotoxin (TTX) and its analogues are naturally occurring toxins historically responsible for human poisoning fatalities in Eastern Asia. It is typically linked to the consumption of pufferfish and, to a lesser extent, marine gastropods and crabs. In the scope of a comprehensive project to understand the prevalence of emergent toxins in edible marine organisms, we report, for the first time, the detection of...
Proteome dataset of sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) skin-scales exposed to fluo...
Anjos, Liliana; Pinto, Patrícia I. S.; Santos, Soraia; Estêvão, M. Dulce; Santa, Cátia; Manadas, Bruno; Canário, Adelino V. M.; Power, Deborah M.Contamination of aquatic ecosystems with anthropogenic pollutants, including pharmaceutical drugs, is a major concern worldwide. Aquatic organisms such as fish are particularly at risk of exposure to pollutants. The surface of fish is the first point of contact with pollutants, but few studies have considered the impact of pollutants on the skin-scale barrier. The present proteome data are the basis of the find...
Temporal variation in brain transcriptome is associated with the expression of ...
Cardoso, Sara; Gonçalves, David; Goesmann, Alexander; Canário, Adelino V. M.; Oliveira, Rui FilipeDistinct patterns of gene expression often underlie intra- and intersexual differences, and the study of this set of coregulated genes is essential to understand the emergence of complex behavioural phenotypes. Here, we describe the development of a de novo transcriptome and brain gene expression profiles of wild-caught peacock blenny, Salaria pavo, an intertidal fish with sex-role reversal in courtship behavio...

A multi-component pheromone in the urine of dominant male tilapia (Oreochromis ...
Keller-Costa, Tina; Saraiva, João L.; Hubbard, Peter C.; Barata, Eduardo N.; Canário, Adelino V. M.Males often use scent to communicate their domi- nance, and to mediate aggressive and breeding behaviors. In teleost fish, however, the chemical composition of male pher- omones is poorly understood. Male Mozambique tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus, use urine that signals social status and primes females to spawn. The urinary sex pheromone di- rected at females consists of 5β-pregnane-3α,17α,20β-triol 3- glucur...

Keller-Costa, Tina; Saraiva, João L.; Hubbard, Peter; Barata, Eduardo Nuno; Canário, Adelino V. M.Males often use scent to communicate their dominance, and to mediate aggressive and breeding behaviors. In teleost fish, however, the chemical composition of male pheromones is poorly understood. Male Mozambique tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus, use urine that signals social status and primes females to spawn. The urinary sex pheromone directed at females consists of 5 beta-pregnane-3 alpha,17 alpha,20 beta-tri...
