(CN) — When it comes to survival, timing is everything — even for fish embryos. And according to researchers, these embryos aren’t just waiting around for the perfect moment to hatch. They’re actively ...

Boston, MA - Scientists have developed an automated assay that takes the pulse of a strain of zebra-fish embryos that have fluorescent myocardia; the method can be used to monitor zebra-fish embryo ...

The annual killifish lives in regions with extreme drought. A research group now reports that the early embryogenesis of killifish diverges from that of other species. Unlike other fish, their body ...

New research has revealed that fish embryos actively control their hatching timing through a neurohormone, Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH), which triggers the release of enzymes that dissolve the ...

Plastic contamination in freshwater ecosystems continues to rise, resulting in micro- and nanoparticle accumulation in the aquatic environment. A new study by an aquatic ecology group at the ...

A new study by researchers at Oregon State University found that fish embryos exposed to tiny amounts of pesticides for four days experienced lasting behavioral changes. It also found that the ...

How does a tiny cluster of cells become an embryo with a head, trunk, and tail? And how do thousands of genes coordinate this development? A new imaging method makes it possible to visualize the ...

Plastic pollution in freshwater is increasing, leading to micro- and nanoplastic buildup. A study found these particles and their surface charge can harm fish reproduction, especially under stress.
