Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the vertebral morphology of grass carp, focusing on the anatomical structure of their vertebral centrum, which is crucial for understanding vertebrate development.
  • - High-resolution micro-CT scans of three abdominal vertebrae revealed that grass carp vertebrae have an amphicoelous shape and show bilateral symmetry, although the caudal aspect is larger and more robust, suggesting possible adaptations related to swimming.
  • - The research raises questions about whether the observed vertebral characteristics are influenced by genetics or environmental factors, and proposes future studies to explore these aspects in both aquatic and terrestrial vertebrates.
