icadmium accumulation and histological lesion in mosquitofish (gambusia affinis) tissues following acute and chronic exposure

in this study, cadmium (cd) accumulation was studied in an experimental aquatic exposure. mosquitofish (gambusia affinis) were acutely exposed for 96 h to a high concentration of cd (12 mg/l) and were chronically exposed to a low concentration of cd(0.4 mg/l) for 30 days. cd accumulation profiles differed between the two cd exposures. the cd concentation in g. affinis tissues increased linearly...

Acute toxicity of mosquitocidal compounds to young mosquitofish, Gambusia affinis.

Toxicity of Florida mosquito larvicides and adulticides to 3-5 day old Gambusia affinis was determined in the laboratory. After 24-h exposure, the larvicides, temephos, fenoxycarb and petroleum distillates had LC50 values of 5.60, 1.05 and 593.4 ppm, respectively. After 24 h the adulticides resmethrin, fenthion, naled and malathion had LC50 values of 0.007, 2.94, 3.50 and 12.68 ppm, respectivel...

Effects of Size and Exposure to Predation Threat on Mating Behavior and Predation Response in Male Western Mosquitofish (gambusia Affinis)

Trophic plasticity and fine-grained resource variation in populations of western mosquitofish, Gambusia affinis

Hypothesis: Fish will exhibit morphological plasticity in response to how (food type: live vs. attached food) and where (orientation: surface, mid-water, benthic) they are fed. Fine-grained resource variation (daily rotation of orientations) will produce intermediate morphologies. Population differences will reflect responses to both predators and resources. Organism: Offspring from two populat...

Personality traits and dispersal tendency in the invasive mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis).

Ecological invasions, where non-native species spread to new areas, grow to high densities and have large, negative impacts on ecological communities, are a major worldwide problem. Recent studies suggest that one of the key mechanisms influencing invasion dynamics is personality-dependent dispersal: the tendency for dispersers to have a different personality type than the average from a source...
