Point sampling the abundance of European eel (<I>Anguilla anguilla</I>) in freshwater areas

The action of these hormones is mostly exerted by binding to a specific nuclear thyroid hormone receptor (THR). In this study, we i) cloned and characterized

There was a distinct spatial distribution of TH mRNA expression in female prepubertal eels as analyzed by qrtRT- PCR (Fig. 3): Highest relative levels were found in the olfactory

According to stock estimates based on electrofishing, a total of 3000 silver eels and 750 yellow/silver eels were expected in the downstream trap during the 1996 and 1997 seasons

Cortisol treatment had no significant effect on the mRNA abundance of a second aquaporin-1 isoform, termed AQP1dup, which exhibited a highly variable expression profile among

Population structure of silver eels caught in a downstream trap in the French river Fre´mur (Brittany) during a 9-year study (1999–2004)... decreased three times more rapidly than

The applica- tion of this approach includes management of fresh- water, estuarine and coastal habitats, including construction of passes at physical obstructions to migration

Of the 26 yellow/silver eels captured, 12 were caught in the downstream trap and 14 in the river but all in the same section where they were originally tagged.. Thus, 162 eels
