Tissue-specific increases in hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha protein are independent of mRNA levels during acute hypoxic exposure of the Gulf killifish, Fundulus grandis

The study measures HIF1 protein and mRNA levels in Gulf killifish tissues during hypoxia, finding protein increases without corresponding mRNA changes, suggesting post-translational stabilization.

Genomic Analysis of Hypoxia Inducible Factor Alpha Evolution in Ray-finned Fishes (Actinopterygii)

This study examines HIF gene evolution in ray-finned fishes, identifying four HIF forms in primitive species and tracing their retention or loss in derived lineages.

Plasticity, repeatability, and phenotypic correlations of aerobic metabolic traits in a small estuarine fish

This study examines how acclimation to environmental changes affects aerobic metabolic traits in Gulf killifish, finding plasticity without altering trait repeatability and significant phenotypic correlations.

Standardizing the determination and interpretation of Pcrit in fishes

The paper compares methods to estimate Pcrit in Gulf killifish and recommends defining Pcrit as the PO2 below which SMR cannot be maintained.
