What's the difference between sheatfish and silurus?

Sheatfish


Definition:

  • (n.) A European siluroid fish (Silurus glanis) allied to the cat-fishes. It is the largest fresh-water fish of Europe, sometimes becoming six feet or more in length. See Siluroid.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) 100% of sheatfish fry infected by water bath died within 8 days.
  • (2) The sheatfish, Silurus glanis (L.), from the terminal part of River Po was examined for the presence of helminth parasites.
  • (3) In case of common secretory specialization, it can be a) isomorphous--at identical convertion of the epithelium in the whole follicle (for example, in sheatfish), b) dimorphous--when there is a certain difference in the character and degree of secretory specialization of the follicular epithelium in various follicular areas (for example in Myxine glutinosa); 2) unipolar secondary transformation when the follicular epithelium undergoes secondary flattening or secretory specialization only in the area adjacent to one of the oocyte poles (for example, in Lametra fluviatilis and Blennis follis).
  • (4) An iridovirus-like agent which was isolated from sheatfish fry showed to be of high virulence to those fish.
  • (5) In 45 sheatfish of total length < or = 40 cm, specimens of P. laevis were found encapsulated in mesenteric and peritoneal tissues.
  • (6) Applying the axon-terminal degeneration method, the representation of the lateral line posterior nerve in acustico-lateral area of the dwarf sheatfish medulla oblongata was studied.
  • (7) The greatest degree of localization of the degenerated terminals was revealed in the dorsolateral area of the medial nucleus on the ipsilateral side, where previously, under adequate stimulation of the organs on the lateral line of the dwarf sheatfish, the greatest amount of responses was registered.
  • (8) A radioimmunoassay was to determine the content of estrogens, progestins and androgens in the blood plasma of female and male big-mouthed buffalo, silver carp and canal sheatfish before reproduction and in the first two species during reproduction as well.
  • (9) An icosahedral cytoplasmic deoxyvirus has been isolated from moribund sheatfish (Silurus glanis) fry of a commercial warm water recirculation aquaculture unit with cumulative mortalities of up to 100%.

Silurus


Definition:

  • (n.) A genus of large malacopterygious fishes of the order Siluroidei. They inhabit the inland waters of Europe and Asia.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Basic composition and properties of isolated transferrins of Silurus glanis and Esox lucius have been compared.
  • (2) The kinetic and regulatory properties of creatine kinase from Silurus glanis L. white muscles were studied.
  • (3) The sheatfish, Silurus glanis (L.), from the terminal part of River Po was examined for the presence of helminth parasites.
  • (4) The anatomical structure of the olfactory organs, nerve tracts and brain was described in Silurus glanis.
  • (5) Studies have been made on chrono- and inotropic effects in the heart of the frog Rana temporaria and fishes Silurus glanis and Cyprinus carpio during stationary and transitional stimulation.
  • (6) Enteroviruses were isolated from 12% of the digestive tract samples collected from Anodonta cygnea (9.4%) and Dreysena polymorpha (13.2%) shell species and from 8.4% of the branchiae sample from fish species Rutilus rutilus, Perca fluviatilis and Silurus glanis.
  • (7) Oxyntic cells of gastric glands of the sheat-fish Silurus glanis, frog Rana temporaria, tortoise Agrionemis horsfieldi and pigeon Columba livia exhibit intensive reactions on dehydrogenases of lactate, alpha-ketoglutarate, glutamate, succinate, malate and glucose-6-phosphate which indicate high energy metabolism necessary for the production of HCl by these cells.
  • (8) Taste buds in the European catfish Silurus glanis were examined with electron microscopic lectin histochemistry.
  • (9) Retinal and extraretinal photoreceptor organs involved in synchronization of nocturnal locomotor activity under 12-h light:12-h dark cycle (LD12:12) were investigated in catfish, Silurus asotus.
  • (10) Endocrine component of the crucian (Carassius carassius), carp (Cyprinus carpio), tench (Tinca tinca) and silurus (Silurus glanis) pancreas is structurally organized in the form of pancreatic islets.
  • (11) An icosahedral cytoplasmic deoxyvirus has been isolated from moribund sheatfish (Silurus glanis) fry of a commercial warm water recirculation aquaculture unit with cumulative mortalities of up to 100%.
