Dietary Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate (EGCG) Improves Nonspecific Immune Response of Chinese Rice Field Eel (Monopterus albus) [PDF]
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) has been recognized as a potential additive for aquafeeds due to its beneficial biological functions. In order to evaluate the potential application of EGCG in Chinese rice field eel (Monopterus albus), six ...

Comparative Analysis Reveals the Adaptive Evolution of Olfactory System in the Swamp Eel (<i>Monopterus albus</i>) Based on the Chromosome-Level Genome. [PDF]
A total of 629 gene families were identified to expand in the swamp eel, with five (OLFR, GNAL, PRKG1, NCALD, and PDE1) distributed in olfactory transduction (KEGG map04740). A total of 318 OR genes (289 functional genes, 10 partial genes, and 19 pseudogenes) were annotated in the swamp eel genome, significantly surpassing other fish species.

Development of a Duplex Digital PCR and Validation on eDNA Water Samples for Monitoring of the Asian Swamp Eel (<i>Monopterus albus</i>/<i>Javanensis</i>) and Bullseye Snakehead (<i>Channa aurolineata</i>/<i>Marulius</i>) in Florida, USA, Freshwater Ecosystems. [PDF]
The Asian swamp eel and bullseye snakehead are two invasive organisms in Florida of ecological concern. In this study, a multiplex digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) assay is developed, optimized, and validated on water samples for environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis and monitoring. ABSTRACT Invasive species are a significant threat to a variety of

Deciphering the gonadal cell atlas of Monopterus albus and cell fate during sex reversal based on single-cell RNA sequencing [PDF]
Background The Monopterus albus serves as a unique model for studying sex reversal, transitioning naturally from female to male. However, the origins of male germline stem cells (GSCs) and the roles of somatic cells during sex reversal remain poorly ...

Gonadal bacterial community composition is associated with sex-specific differences in swamp eels (Monopterus albus) [PDF]
Organisms are colonized by microorganism communities and play a pivotal role in host function by influencing physiology and development. In mammals, bacterial community may alter gonadal maturation and drive sex-specific differences in gene expression ...

Earthworm Powder Mitigates Soybean Meal-Induced Growth Inhibition in Rice Field Eel (Monopterus albus) by Regulating Appetite and Improving Intestinal Health [PDF]
The substitution of fish meal with soybean meal (SBM) in aquafeeds aligns with sustainable development but often leads to depressed feed intake and growth in fish.

Multi-omics integration identifies diverse transcripts and chromatin accessibility profiles in Monopterus albus gonads [PDF]
The swamp eel (Monopterus albus) is an economically important freshwater fish. However, its natural sex reversal contributes to low egg production and fry shortages in aquaculture. The molecular mechanisms governing this process remain poorly understood,
