Supplementing dietary selenium nano-particles increased growth, antioxidant capacity and immune-related genes transcription in Pacific whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) juveniles

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2022
An eight-week nutritional study was carried out to examine the effects of dietary selenium nanoparticles (Se-N) on performance in whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) juveniles (1.55 ± 0.04 g, means ± standard deviation). A basal diet (∼ 38 % crude protein,

How Marine Megabenthos Fauna Responds to River Discharge and Artificial Flood in Large River Estuary

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2025.
The artificial flood reshaped the geographical distribution of megabenthic fauna in the estuarine area in a short time, mainly as a result of the dramatic changes in seawater salinity and nutrients caused by flow pulse. An eco‐friendly discharge management of the Yellow River is needed to weaken the impact. ABSTRACT Estuaries are ecologically sensitive

Ovarian development of Xiphopenaeus kroyeri (Crustacea: Penaeidae) from Espírito Santo, southeastern Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2022
Abstract This study aimed to describe and characterize the stages of gonadal development of females of Xiphopenaeus kroyeri caught by artisanal fishers in Espírito Santo state, southeastern region of Brazil. All females (n= 1,831) were subjected to macroscopic and microscopic morphological analysis (n= 333) of the ovaries.

Potential Functions of the Gut Microbiome and Modulation Strategies for Improving Aquatic Animal Growth

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT The increase in the body weight of animals, a pivotal indicator closely tied to production, is important to the aquaculture industry. Despite remarkable variability in gut microbiomes, which are intricately associated with their hosts and affect overall performance, fitness, and physiological outcomes, across individuals and species, the ...

Diet variation and trophic impact of weakfish, Cynoscion regalis, within multiple marine habitats of the eastern United States

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1628-1642, December 2024.
Abstract Weakfish (Cynoscion regalis) is not federally managed but feeds on species of management and ecological interest. We examined the trophic ecology of weakfish in Chesapeake Bay and the coastal and offshore waters of the eastern United States. For these areas, we determined the dominant prey of weakfish; identified how much diet variation was ...

Unraveling the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Potamalpheops Sp. (Purple Zebra Shrimp) (Crustacea: Decapoda) Provides Insights Into Its Phylogenetic Relationships and Gene Order Rearrangements

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.
Potamalpheops sp. is the species belong to family Alpheidae, and this is the first report from Taiwan. Also, the mitogenome of this species has been sequenced for the first time as there was a lack of sequence information regarding this species.

A new record of the Jinga shrimp Metapenaeus affinis (H. Milne Edwards, 1837) (Decapoda, Penaeidae), on the Egyptian Coasts, the Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2021
An unexpected new Metapenaeus shrimp species has arrived to the coastal water of Alexandria City, Egypt. Morphological and molecular studies were conducted for its identification. The results revealed that it is the Indo-West Pacific species, Metapenaeus

Quantitative determination of ovarian development in penaeid prawns (Decapoda: Penaeidae) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Crustacean Biology, 2017
We developed histological methods to increase precision in measuring oocyte size and, for the first time, quantify changes in oocyte composition during ovarian development in penaeids. Wild-caught female Metapenaeus dalli Racek, 1957 from the Swan-Canning Estuary, Perth, Western Australia were used as a model species to compare the novel method to ...

Bottom Trawling and Multi‐Marker eDNA Metabarcoding Surveys Reveal Highly Diverse Vertebrate and Crustacean Communities: A Case Study in an Urbanized Subtropical Estuary

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 6, November–December 2024.
We demonstrated the effectiveness of eDNA metabarcoding as a valuable addition to bottom trawling for monitoring the species composition and spatial distribution of fish and crustacean communities in urban estuaries. We also showed that a multiplexed‐marker approach enhances species detection, especially in some taxa, for example, cartilaginous fish ...
