To a New Place! Fish Colonized Far From Mother Ocean
Asano Ishikawa Associate Professor Division of Biosciences, Department of Integrated BiosciencesFish inhabit various waters. However, not all fish groups colonize freshwater habitats, such as rivers, ponds, and lakes. Why can some groups colonize freshwater while others cannot? The lecture introduces some of the mechanisms that have been elucidated through breeding experiments, metabolic studies, and genome analyses.
