Aquaculture is one of the most efficient modes of animal protein production and plays an
important role in global food security. Aquaculture animals exhibit extraordinarily diverse …

Polyploids can be defined as organisms with one or more additional chromosome sets with
respect to the number most frequently found in nature for a given species. Triploids …

Triploids are rare in nature because of difficulties in meiotic and gametogenic processes,
especially in vertebrates. The Carassius complex of cyprinid teleosts contains sexual …

We review the morphology, larval feeding habits, reproductive behavior, and social behavior
