Abstract
Background Mahi-mahi (Coryphaena hippurus) is a commercially and ecologically important fish species that is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical waters. Biological attributes and reproductive capacities of mahi-mahi make it a tractable model for experimental studies. In this study, life development of cultured mahi-mahi from the zygote stage to adult has been described.
Results A comprehensive developmental table has been created reporting development as primarily detailed observations of morphology. Additionally, physiological, behavioral and molecular landmarks have been described to significantly contribute in the understanding of mahi life development.
Conclusion Remarkably, despite the vast difference in adult size, many developmental landmarks of mahi map quite closely onto the development and growth of zebrafish, and other warm water, active Teleost fishes. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
