Abstract Background We have developed genetic methods in zebrafish by using the Tol2 transposable element; namely, transgenesis, gene trapping, enhancer trapping and Gal4FF-UAS system. Gene trap constructs contain a splice acceptor GFP or Gal4FF (a modified version of yeast Gal4 transcription activator) gene, hsp70l promoter gene. By performing screens these constructs, we generated transgenic that express specific cells, tissues organs. expression is visualized creating double fish carrying...
Fear conditioning is a form of learning essential for animal survival and used as behavioral paradigm to study the mechanisms memory. In mammals, amygdala plays crucial role in fear conditioning. teleost, medial zone dorsal telencephalon (Dm) has been postulated be homolog mammalian by anatomical ablation studies, showing conditioned avoidance response. However, neuronal populations required response via Dm have not functionally or genetically defined. We aimed identify population through...
The visual system plays a major role in food/prey recognition diurnal animals, and food intake is regulated by the hypothalamus. However, whether how information about prey conveyed to hypothalamic feeding centre largely unknown. Here we perform real-time imaging of neuronal activity freely behaving or constrained zebrafish larvae demonstrate that prey-like stimuli activate centre. Furthermore, identify detector neurons pretectal area project Ablation pretectum completely abolishes capture...
Interhemispheric connections enable interaction and integration of sensory information in bilaterian nervous systems are thought to optimize computations. However, the cellular spatial organization interhemispheric networks computational properties they mediate vertebrates still poorly understood. Thus, it remains unclear what extent connectivity between left right brain hemispheres participates processing. Here, we show that zebrafish olfactory bulbs (OBs) receive direct projections from...
Introduction Farmed fish like European seabass ( Dicentrarchus labrax ) anticipate meals if these are provided at one or multiple fixed times during the day. The increase in locomotor activity is typically known as food anticipatory (FAA) and can be observed several hours prior to feeding. Measuring FAA often done by demand feeders external sensors such cameras light curtains. However, purely locomotor-activity-based may provide an incomplete view of feeding prefeeding behaviour. Methods...
Strobilurins, among the most used fungicides worldwide, are considered non-toxic to mammals and birds, but there is growing evidence that these compounds highly toxic aquatic species. Dimoxystrobin has been included in 3rd Watch List of European Commission, it classified as very life. However, previous studies focused on acute toxicity only two reports available its impact fish, none effects during early life stages. Here, we evaluated for first time induced zebrafish embryos larvae by...
