Monitoring of Delphinidae species population patterns in the Mediterranean Sea was carried out a sequence surveys employing different approaches. Data from seven-year with small catamaran sailing boats were analyzed under model-based Density Surface Models used to produce spatial distribution prediction three (Stenella coeruleoalba, Tursiops truncatus, and Delphinus delphis) an extended study area covering much Sea. A classical distance sampling protocol applied order calculate detection...

As a tool for stock identification the body morphology and free amino acid (FAA) profile variability were determined among farmed rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum 1792) from different geographical areas throughout Greece, using geometric morphometrics Reversed Phase-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography. Significant intraspecific shape variation was detected fish stocks of origin. Canonical Variate Analysis distinguished populations into two groups being consistent to great extent...

Abstract Common sole ( Solea solea ) aquaculture production is based mostly on wild-caught breeders. Recently, the successful reproduction of first-generation fish that were reared in captivity was accomplished. A consistent good quality and quantity produced eggs throughout year, next-generation broodstock, important for reducing overall cost production. Hox genes play a pivotal role normal embryonic development alterations their temporal expression level may be egg viability. Expression...

Abstract In sole aquaculture production, consistency in the quality of produced eggs throughout year is unpredictable. Hox genes have a crucial role controlling embryonic development and their genetic variation could alter phenotype dramatically. teleosts genome duplication led paralog hox to become diverged. Direct association polymorphism hoxa1a , hoxa2a & hoxa2b Solea solea with egg viability indicates as potential marker. High Resolution Melt (HRM) analysis was carried out 52 viable...

In farmed flatfish, such as common sole, color disturbances are common. Dyschromia is a general term that includes the defects on blind and ocular sides of fish. The purpose was to examine difference in gene expression between normal pigmented juveniles who present ambicoloration. analysis carried out with next-generation sequencing techniques de novo assembly transcriptome. Transcripts showed significant differences (FDR < 0.05) two groups, were related those zebrafish (Danio rerio),...

The primary purpose of this study is to provide an immediate connection analytics biological functions and visualisation. We introduce a visual framework in the environment main computer algebra system (CAS), Mathematica, picture variations evolution schemes gene expression. Our computational approach constructs snapshots for expression profiles, with advantage being selfevident, concise clear. A variety colours employed, beyond conventional heat map colours. dynamic options facilitate...

In recent years a major scientific effort has been focused on the protection of marine mammals. Gulf Corinth is part Natura 2000 network (GR2530007) since 2016, with Special Areas Conservation and constitutes an important habitat for striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba), bottlenose (Tursiops truncatus) short-beaked common (Delphinus delphis). Dedicated shipboard transect line surveys were designed based in Conventional Distance Sampling implemented seasonally during 2018-2019, using...
