Comparative transcriptomics reveals candidate carotenoid color genes in an East African cichlid fish
Ahi, Ehsan Pashay; Lecaudey, Laurene Alicia; Ziegelbecker, Angelika; Steiner, Oliver; Glabonjat, Ronald; Goessler, Walter; Hois, Victoria; Wagner, Carina; Lass, Achim; Sefc, Kristina M (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Carotenoids contribute significantly to animal body coloration, including the spectacular color pattern diversity among fishes. Fish, as other animals, derive carotenoids from their diet. Following uptake, ... -
Expression levels of the tetratricopeptide repeat protein gene ttc39b covary with carotenoid-based skin colour in cichlid fish
Ahi, Ehsan Pashay; Lecaudey, Laurene Alicia; Ziegelbecker, Angelika; Steiner, Oliver; Goessler, Walter; Sefc, Kristina M (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Carotenoid pigments play a major role in animal body colouration, generating strong interest in the genes involved in the metabolic processes that lead from their dietary uptake to their storage in the integument. Here, ...
