Two SNPs in SNX2 are associated with SGIV resistance in Asian seabass
Aquaculture, 2021Abstract Breeding for disease resistance is an important task for genetic improvement in aquaculture. Identification of DNA markers associated with disease resistance is a critical step towards molecular breeding for disease resistance. Iridovirus causes mass mortality in hatchery of an important food fish Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer).

Genetic Diversity of Asian Seabass (Lates calcarifer) in Captive Populations
Pertanika Journal of Science and Technology, 2023This study examined the genetic diversity of Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer) captive populations using sequencing of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) fragment. The phylogenetic analyses of the 609 base pair regions of the COI fragment from 146 samples identified 15 haplotypes and divided them into two clades with a genetic divergence

An indel in the Suv39h1 gene is associated with resistance to iridovirus in the Asian seabass
Aquaculture, 2020Abstract Suv39h1 is a member of the Suv39h sub-family of histone lysine methyltransferases. The gene plays an important role in heterochromatin organization, chromosome segregation, and mitotic progression in humans and model organisms. However, its functions in food fish species remain largely unknown.

Differential expression of boule and dazl in adult germ cells of the Asian seabass
Gene, 2014Fertility genes boule and dazl constitute the evolutionarily conserved DAZ (Deleted in AZoospermia) family of RNA binding proteins essential for germline development across animal phyla. Here we report the cloning and expression analysis of boule and dazl from the Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer), a marine fish that undergoes sequential male-to-female ...

Mutations Upstream of ppp2ca Affect Body Weight in Asian Seabass
Marine BiotechnologyGrowth is an economically important traits in aquaculture. Previous studies identified ppp2ca as a candidate gene located within a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) for growth in Asian seabass. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying its role in growth regulation remain unclear.

BIOACCUMULATION OF DDT PESTICIDE IN CULTURED ASIAN SEABASS FOLLOWING DIETARY EXPOSURE
Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A, 2005Bioaccumulation and metabolism of p,p'-DDT was studied in the marine carnivorous fish Lates calcarifer, Asian seabass, in a controlled aquaculture experiment. Over a 42-d period, seabass were fed pellets dosed with p,p'-DDT at environmentally realistic levels. Virtually all p,p'-DDT in pellets bioaccumulated in the fish with an uptake efficiency of 98%.

The FTO Gene Is Associated with Growth and Omega-3/-6 Ratio in Asian Seabass
Marine Biotechnology, 2018Polymorphisms in the FTO gene are associated with obesity and body mass index in humans and livestock. Little information of whether FTO plays an important role in aquaculture fish species is available. We cloned and characterized the FTO gene in an economically important food fish species: Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer).

Profile of cortisol during the ontogeny of the Asian seabass, Lates calcarifer
Aquaculture, 1995Abstract Whole-body cortisol was measured by radioimmunoassay from spawning for various periods up to 188 h post-spawning in 5 different broods. Fertilized eggs contained varying levels of cortisol (0.62–2.25 ng/g wet weight; designated “C0”) that presumably originated from the mother. These levels declined as embryogenesis proceeded.

A Study on Cadmium Accumulation in the Fingerlings of Asian Seabass Lates calcarifer (Bloch)
Asian Journal of Current ResearchHeavy metals remain in the environment for extended periods, taint food chains, and lead to various health issues because of their toxic nature. Organisms face significant dangers from prolonged exposure to these environmental heavy metals. Excessive exposure to heavy metals in marine ecosystems can adversely affect marine life and pose risks to humans

Mapping and Validating QTL for Fatty Acid Compositions and Growth Traits in Asian Seabass
Marine Biotechnology, 2019Asian seabass is an important food fish species. While improving growth, increasing the nutritional value is important, omega-3 fatty acids are indispensable to human health. Identifying and validating DNA markers associated with traits is the first step towards marker-assisted selection (MAS).
