In contrast to other major forms of livestock agriculture, there is a paucity of scientific
information on the welfare of fish raised under intensive aquacultural conditions. This …

The dorsal diencephalon, or epithalamus, contains the bilaterally paired habenular nuclei
and the pineal complex. The habenulae form part of the dorsal diencephalic conduction …

The pineal organ of teleost fish is a directly photosensory organ that contains photoreceptor
cells similar to those of the retina. It conveys photoperiod information to the brain via neural …

The epithalamus is a major subdivision of the diencephalon constituted by the habenular
nuclei and pineal complex. Structural asymmetries in this region are widespread amongst …

Kisspeptins are new actors in the neuroendocrine regulation of reproduction. In vertebrates,
the number of kiss genes varies from none to three. Zebrafish have two kiss genes, kiss1 …

The mammalian habenula consists of the medial and lateral habenulae. Recent behavioral
and electrophysiological studies suggested that the lateral habenula plays a pivotal role in …

The central nervous cholinergic system of the zebrafish (Danio rerio), a model animal for
neurogenetics, is documented here using immunohistochemical methods for visualizing …

During the past few years, our investigations of the forebrain in the zebrafish (a teleost fish)
have shown that its molecular anatomy and expression patterns of genes involved in the …
