Invasion genetics of the silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix across North America: Differentiation of fronts, introgression, and eDNA metabarcode detection

Aspects of Embryonic and Larval Development in Bighead Carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis and Silver Carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix

As bighead carp Hypophthalmichthysnobilis and silver carp H. molitrix (the bigheaded carps) are poised to enter the Laurentian Great Lakes and potentially damage the region's economically important fishery, information on developmental rates and behaviors of carps is critical to assessing their ability to establish sustainable populations within the Great Lakes basin. In laboratory experiments,...

Pathogen Susceptibility of Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and Bighead Carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) in the Wabash River Watershed

Reexamining the frequency range of hearing in silver (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead (H. nobilis) carp

Silver (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead (H. nobilis) carp (collectively bigheaded carp) are invasive fish that threaten aquatic ecosystems in the upper Midwest United States and the Laurentian Great Lakes. Controlling bigheaded carp is a priority of fisheries managers and one area of focus involves developing acoustic deterrents to prevent upstream migration. For an acoustic deterrent ...

Liver Transcriptome and miRNA Analysis of Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) Intraperitoneally Injected With Microcystin-LR

Pathogenicity of Aeromonas hydrophila in Silver Carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and its Control Trial

Pathogenicity of Aeromonas hydrophila, previously isolated from kidney of apparently healthy silver carp, was tested in silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix. Trials were also made to control the pathogen in the experimentally infected fish. Before artificial infection the morphological, biochemical and physiological characters of A. hydrophila were studied. The infection was done by intramus...
