Characterization and distribution of kisspeptins, kisspeptin receptors, GnIH, and GnRH1 in the brain of the protogynous bluehead wrasse (Thalassoma bifasciatum)

JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL NEUROANATOMY, 121.

By: M. Lamm n, A. Lamb n, B. Klapheke n, W. Tyler * & J. Godwin n 

author keywords: Kisspeptin; GnRH; GnIH; Teleost; Reproduction; Sex change
MeSH headings : Animals; Brain / metabolism; Female; Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone / metabolism; Gonadotropins / metabolism; Kisspeptins / genetics; Kisspeptins / metabolism; Male; Perciformes / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Hypothalamic control of reproductive hormones; Plant Reproductive Biology; Genetic and Clinical Aspects of Sex Determination and Chromosomal Abnormalities
TL;DR: This study characterized expression of kisspeptin-system genes (kiss1, kiss2, kissr1, and kissr2), gnih, and gnrh1 in the brain of the bluehead wrasse, an important teleost model of socially-controlled sex change and suggested that if kisspeptins do signal GnRH1 neurons, the interaction is indirect, possibly through neurons adjacent to Gn RH1.

Comparing the dietary niche overlap and ecomorphological differences between invasive Hemidactylus mabouia geckos and a native gecko competitor

Lamb, A. D., Lippi, C. A., Watkins-Colwell, G. J., Jones, A., Warren, D. L., Iglesias, T. L., … Dornburg, A. (2021, December 20). ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION.

By: A. Lamb n, C. Lippi *, G. Watkins-Colwell *, A. Jones *, D. Warren *, T. Iglesias *, M. Brandley *, A. Dornburg*

author keywords: food web; invasive species; trophic ecology; urbanization; vertebrate biodiversity loss
topics (OpenAlex): Species Distribution and Climate Change; Animal Ecology and Behavior Studies; Amphibian and Reptile Biology
TL;DR: Findings provide the first support for the hypotheses that invasive H. mabouia and native P. martini overlap in prey resources and that H.mabouIA possess ecomorphological advantages over P.martini. (via Semantic Scholar)

Estrogenic signaling and sociosexual behavior in wild sex-changing bluehead wrasses, Thalassoma bifasciatum

Prim, J. H., Phillips, M. C., Lamm, M. S., Brady, J., Cabral, I., Durden, S., … Godwin, J. (2021, November 9). JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL ZOOLOGY PART A-ECOLOGICAL AND INTEGRATIVE PHYSIOLOGY, Vol. 11.

By: J. Prim  n, M. Phillips n, M. Lamm n, J. Brady*, I. Cabral*, S. Durden*, E. Dustin  n, A. Hazellief* ...

author keywords: aromatase; estrogen; estrogen receptor; sex change; sociosexual behavior
MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Fishes; Gonads; Male; Perciformes; Sex Determination Processes; Sex Differentiation
topics (OpenAlex): Genetic and Clinical Aspects of Sex Determination and Chromosomal Abnormalities; Reproductive biology and impacts on aquatic species; Animal Behavior and Reproduction
TL;DR: Variation in estrogenic signaling across three sexual phenotypes is examined, suggesting alterations in neural estrogen signaling are key regulators of socially-controlled sex change and sexual phenotype differences and the possibility that an inverted-U shaped relationship between neural estrogen and male-typical behaviors is more common than presently appreciated.

Are Geckos Paratenic Hosts for Caribbean Island Acanthocephalans? Evidence from Gonatodes antillensis and a Global Review of Squamate Reptiles Acting as Transport Hosts

BULLETIN OF THE PEABODY MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY, 60(1), 55–79.

By: A. Dornburg*, A. Lamb n, D. Warren *, G. Watkins-Colwell *, G. Lewbart n  & J. Flowers n

author keywords: Acanthocephala; intestinal helminths; cats; parasite; trophic transmission; mammals; birds; host-parasite interactions; vector species
topics (OpenAlex): Parasite Biology and Host Interactions; Bird parasitology and diseases; Primate Behavior and Ecology
TL;DR: Evidence is found that the ability of squamate reptiles to act as transport hosts is a pervasive feature across their Tree of Life, suggesting that these animals may serve as important vectors for transporting parasites between intermediate and definitive hosts. (via Semantic Scholar)

Testing ontogenetic patterns of sexual size dimorphism against expectations of the expensive tissue hypothesis, an intraspecific example using oyster toadfish (Opsanus tau)

ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 8(7), 3609–3616.

By: A. Dornburg *, D. Warren *, K. Zapfe *, R. Morris *, T. Iglesias *, A. Lamb n, G. Hogue *, L. Lukas*, R. Wong*

author keywords: evolutionary ecology; fishes; life history trade-offs; phenotypic evolution; reproductive physiology; swim bladder
topics (OpenAlex): Animal Behavior and Reproduction; Evolutionary Psychology and Human Behavior; Insect and Arachnid Ecology and Behavior
TL;DR: Allometric trends in the ontogeny of oyster toadfish are examined to test whether investment in structures known to have been influenced by strong sexual selection conform to expectations of the expensive tissue hypothesis, and find no evidence for predicted ontogenetic trade-offs with metabolically expensive organs.

NATURE ECOLOGY & EVOLUTION, 1(9), 1379–1384.

MeSH headings : Animals; Antarctic Regions; Biodiversity; Biological Evolution; Climate Change; DNA, Mitochondrial / genetics; Exons / genetics; Fishes / classification; Fishes / physiology; Introns / genetics; Phylogeny; Sequence Analysis, DNA
topics (OpenAlex): Species Distribution and Climate Change; Genetic diversity and population structure; Coral and Marine Ecosystems Studies
TL;DR: Phylogenetic and biogeographic modelling show that high-latitude Antarctic nearshore habitats have been an evolutionary sink for species diversity of notothenioids, which dominate teleost fish diversity in the Southern Ocean. (via Semantic Scholar)

Endolymphatic Sac Use and Reproductive Activity in the Lesser Antilles Endemic Gecko Gonatodes antillensis (Gekkota: Sphaerodactylidae)

BULLETIN OF THE PEABODY MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY, 58(1), 17–29.

By: A. Lamb n, G. Watkins-Colwell *, J. Moore *, D. Warren *, T. Iglesias *, M. Brandley *, A. Dornburg *

author keywords: Hemidactylus mabouia; calcium gland; stress; physiology; sexual dimorphism; natural history; nocturnal; invasive; conservation; ecology
topics (OpenAlex): Amphibian and Reptile Biology; Animal Behavior and Reproduction; Species Distribution and Climate Change
TL;DR: It is found that females have larger endolymphatic sacs than males, supporting the hypothesis that calcium stores are built up in the early reproductive phase and depleted during the development of the egg, and raising the possibility of year-round reproduction in Gonatodes antillensis.
