Rod opsin-based colour vision in deep-sea fishes
The goal of this study was to investigate the visual system evolution of teleost fishes with a special focus on deep-sea species. -
Evolution of the immune system influences speciation rates in teleost fishes
Teleost fishes constitute the most species-rich vertebrate clade and exhibit extensive genetic and phenotypic variation, including diverse immune-defence strategies. The genomic... -
Pseudochromis fuscus Transcriptome or Gene expression
Project is focused on the visual system evolution of percomorph fishes P. fuscus was a selected candidate for functional approach to study opsin genes. -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and the predator–prey interactions of a pair of ...
Oceans of the future are predicted to be more acidic and noisier, particularly along the productive coastal fringe. This study examined the independent and combined effects of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and behaviour of coral reef fishes
The partial pressure of CO2 in the oceans has increased rapidly over the past century, driving ocean acidification and raising concern for the stability of marine ecosystems.... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and predator–prey interactions of coral reef fish
Ocean acidification and warming, driven by anthropogenic CO2 emissions, are considered to be among the greatest threats facing marine organisms. While each stressor in isolation... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, thickness and carbonate elemental composition o...
Ocean surface CO2 levels are increasing in line with rising atmospheric CO2 and could exceed 900 µatm by year 2100, with extremes above 2000 µatm in some coastal habitats. The... -
Elevated CO2 affects predator-prey interactions through altered performance
Recent research has shown that exposure to elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) affects how fishes perceive their environment, affecting behavioral and cognitive processes leading to... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and brown dottyback (Pseudochromis fuscus) movem...
Changes in olfactory-mediated behaviour caused by elevated CO2 levels in the ocean could affect recruitment to reef fish populations because larval fish become more vulnerable...
