Visual transect counting of large-bodied fish using artificial light at night in a shallow littoral zone (<1 m water depth) is introduced as a complementary survey method for fishes such as common bream Abramis brama and northern pike Esox lucius that are under-represented in standard gillnet surveys. The results suggest that transect counting at night and applying necessary corrections for environmental variables could provide a simple and repeatable method to assess the presence and abundance of large-bodied fishes in lakes with satisfactory water clarity.

Zebrafish and other small laboratory fishes are emerging as important animal models for investigating human skeletal development and diseases. In recent years, there has been a notable increase in research publications employing X-ray radiography and micro-computed tomography to analyze the skeletal structures of these animals. However, evaluating bone morphology and mineral density in small laboratory fish poses unique challenges compared to well-established small rodent models.

Mercury in fish is a serious human health concern. Mercury is a widespread contaminant that exceeds health effect thresholds in many fish species and waterbodies. The objectives were to determine the spatiotemporal variation of mercury in fish tissue for several fish species across thousands of lakes and to assess the potential use of fish length standardization and statistical models to improve fish consumption guidelines and impairments determinations in lake-rich areas.

Ras-related associated with diabetes (RRAD) is a member of the Ras GTPase superfamily that plays a role in several cellular functions, such as cell proliferation and differentiation. In particular, the superfamily acts as an NF-κB signaling pathway inhibitor and calcium regulator to participate in the immune response pathway. A recent transcriptome study revealed that was expressed in the spleen of disease-resistant Japanese flounder () individuals compared with disease-susceptible individuals, and the results were also verified by qPCR.
