The paper reports the reference genome of the paradise fish (Macropodus opercularis) using long-read sequencing, identifying 20,157 protein-coding genes and demonstrating high completeness.

The paper validates a male-specific DNA marker (CgaY1) in African catfish, confirming an XX/XY sex determination system and demonstrating its accuracy in predicting sex.

This study creates and characterizes a zebrafish model for Bloom syndrome, showing that blm mutants exhibit shortened lifespan, reduced fertility, and germ line developmental issues.

This study identifies Hsf5 as a conserved HSF essential for spermatogenesis in zebrafish, showing its role in meiotic prophase 1 and regulation of genes involved in cell cycle, DNA repair, and cytoskeleton.
