Research Abstract |
Are there genes affecting personality traits of fish? In human, some genes have been identified as personality-related genes. Recent studies also identified personality-related genes not only in mammals but also in birds. These strongly suggest the presence of personality-related genes in fish. However, this issue has not been tested yet. Thus, in this study, we tried to identify and characterize genes affecting personality traits of fish.
