Dorso-ventral skin characterization of the farmed fish gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). [PDF]
The skin is the first barrier of defence in fish, protecting against any external stressor and preserving the integrity and homeostasis of the fish body. The aim of this study was to characterise gilthead seabream skin by isolating cells and studying the

Variations of biofouling communities in an off-shore fish cage farm from North-Western Sardinia = Variazioni del biofouling in un allevamento ittico in gabbie off-shore della Sardegna nord-occidentale [PDF]
Biofouling variations were studied in a fish farming facility near Alghero (Italy) between November 2007 and November 2008. Net panels suitable for the settlement of encrusting organisms were immersed in cages in which large and small gilthead seabream ...

Coping styles in farmed fish: consequences for aquaculture [PDF]
Individual differences in physiological and behavioural responses to stressors are increasingly recognised as adaptive variation and thus raw material for evolution and fish farming improvements including selective breeding. Such individual variation has

In mammals, estrogens regulate the immune system, either directly or indirectly via several leukocyte types through autocrine/paracrine mechanisms. In the gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L.) gonad, an intensive remodeling process accompanied by the massive infiltration of acidophilic granulocytes (AG) is partially triggered by 17β-estradiol (E(2 ...

Aspects of comparative genomics in the gilthead seabream, Sparusaurata [PDF]
Genome projects for new fish species are found in a transitional period during which resource development and meaningful com- parative genomics analysis or use of any other comparative approach must be done in parallel. In new species, full sequencing is still prohibitive due to the high cost of vertebrate genome sequencing and the fact that present ...

Environmental Enrichment in Aquaculture: Linking Welfare Goals to Practical Applications
ABSTRACT Aquaculture is the fastest growing food production sector globally, comprising freshwater and marine species reared under highly variable farming contexts, ranging from extensive earthen ponds to intensive recirculating and sea‐based systems. Together with growth, production has also intensified, and the welfare of fish farmed in these systems

Effects of date palm fruit extracts on skin mucosal immunity, immune related genes expression and growth performance of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) fry [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of date palm fruit extracts (DPFE) on skin mucosal immunity, immune related genes expression and growth performance of fry common carp (Cyprinus carpio). One hundred and twenty specimens (4.06 ± 0.13 g)

Expanding Horizons in Phage Therapy: Addressing Antibiotic Resistance in Aquaculture
ABSTRACT Aquaculture has emerged as a cornerstone of global food security, yet its rapid intensification has precipitated widespread bacterial disease outbreaks and escalating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This review critically examines the limitations of conventional antibiotic use in aquaculture, highlighting regulatory inconsistencies ...
