Rhythms in Fishes

Addressed primarily to researchers of fish, but also of possible interest to researchers of biological rhythms in general, 19 papers from a workshop near Montreal, August 1991, discuss aspects of the biorhythms of fishes as they apply to aquaculture and to reactions to the pollution of natural habitats. The topics include the relevant terminology, the circadian basis for neuroendocrine regulation, and an overview of melatonin synthesis by the teleost pineal. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
