Biophysical mechanisms for the generation of electrosensory and communication signal in the weakly electric fish Eigenmannia virescens
(2018-05-03)The weakly electric fish Eigenmannia virescens generates electric organ discharges (EODs) to navigate and communicate. The EODs are brief monophasic voltage pulses with brief inter-pulse intervals, resulting in a sinusoidal ... -
Electrosensory and Metabolic Responses of Weakly Electric Fish to Changing Water Conductivity
(2022-12-16)South American weakly electric fishes (Gymnotiformes) use self-generated electric fields, known as electric organ discharges (EODs), for sensory processes such as navigation and communication. EOD production incurs significant ... -
Molecular Evolution of a Na, K-ATPase in Weakly Electric Fish
(2016-12)African mormyrids and South American gymnotiforms are two independently evolved lineages of weakly electric fish that produce electric organ discharges (EODs) as sensory and communication signals. EOD frequency varies ...
