Fish that inhabit shallow water are exposed to periodic changes in tidal cues, including hydrostatic pressure (HP). The present study aimed at verifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the brain of the threespot wrasseHalichoeres trimaculatus(tropical species) and the honbera wrasseHalichoeres tenuispinis(temperate species), both of which were exposed to HP at 30 kPa (possible high‐tide stimuli in the field) or 1 kPa (low tide) for 3 or 6 h. Ade novoassembly yielded 174,710 contigs (63,530 contigs were annotated) from the brain of threespot wrasse. Following RNA sequencing, quantitative PCR confirmed DEGs that were upregulated [AT atypical cadherin 2 (FAT2)] and downregulated [neuronal leucine‐rich repeat protein 3 (LRRN3), dual specificity tyrosine phosphorylation‐regulated kinase 1 (DYRK), mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MAP2K1) and phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K)]. The effect of HP on the transcription of these DEGs (except forMAP2K1) disappeared within 6 h, suggesting that HP is a transitory stimulus occurring at the beginning of the tidal cycle. Similar DEG transcription was observed in the brain of honbera wrasse maintained under HP for 6 h.In situhybridization of the brain of the threespot wrasse revealed that strong signals ofMPA2K1were seen in the telencephalon, diencephalon and pituitary, whereas those ofPI3Kwere seen in the telencephalon, diencephalon and medulla oblongata. This result suggests that these kinases are involved in sensory function (telencephalon), somatic and visceral function (medullar oblongata) and the neuroendocrine system (diencephalon and pituitary), all of which were related to changes in HP stimuli. Following HP exposure, the transcription ofc‐fosincreased in the pituitary of honbera wrasse, suggesting that external stimuli directly or indirectly activate hormone synthesis at the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis. It is concluded that HP alters gene expression in relation to neural development and function in the central nervous system and plays a role in exerting tidal‐related reproduction and feeding in wrasses.
