Relative size and myocardial structure of the heart of an Antarctic fish devoid of haemoglobin and myoglobin, Channichthys rhinoceratus
The relative size and the ultrastructure of the heart ventricle of a haemoglobinless and myoglobinless teleost, Channichthys rhinoceratus , has been investigated. It is two to three times larger than that of a red‐blooded species which also lives in the Kerguelen archipelago, Notothenia magellanica....
