Gonadal Transcriptome Analysis of Sex-Related Genes in the Protandrous Yellowfin Seabream (Acanthopagrus latus)

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Yellowfin seabream (Acanthopagrus latus), a protandrous hermaphroditic fish, is a good model for studying the mechanism of sex reversal. However, limited knowledge is known about the genetic information related to reproduction and sex differentiation in ...

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Take my breath away: Defining the oxygen saturation threshold for fish cortisol stress response

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human activities are affecting the number, size and severity of hypoxic zones in aquatic ecosystems. As oxygen is one of the most important abiotic factors affecting fish biology, exposure to low levels of dissolved oxygen may lead to a reduction in fitness.

Expanding the Fish‐Brain Invitrome With the Senegalese Sole SsB‐1 Cell Line—A Versatile Model for Neurotropic Virus Research

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cell lines are essential tools for studying animal physiology and immunopathology, reducing the use of live animals and supporting the 3Rs principle of reduction, refinement, and replacement. The Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis), a relevant species for Spanish aquaculture diversification, lacks established in vitro models. We developed SsB‐

Fish Poxviruses on the Rise: Prospects for Aquatic Health

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fish poxviruses are increasingly recognised as emerging pathogens of fish and should be considered in cases of unexplained gill or skin pathology. Carp edema virus (CEV), the causative agent of koi sleepy disease in common carp and koi (Cyprinus carpio), represents the first known example.

Serotypic and Genomic Diversity of Vibrio anguillarum in Rainbow Trout Farms in Turkey: Implications for Vibriosis Control and Vaccine Candidate Selection

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Outbreaks of vibriosis caused by Vibrio anguillarum are a persistent constraint on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) aquaculture. However, information on the population structure of field strains in Turkey has been lacking. Here, we report the first systematic serotypic, proteomic, and genomic characterization of 23 V.

Cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcripts in two percomorphs: evolutionary conservation and energy-status dependent responses

Frontiers in Endocrinology
Cocaine and amphetamine-regulated transcript (Cart) is a pleiotropic neuropeptide involved in appetite regulation and maintenance of energy homeostasis, among other processes.

In Situ Hybridization and RT‐PCR Detection of Nervous Necrosis Virus in Fourfinger Threadfin, Eleutheronema tetradactylum, in Taiwan

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Between April and July 2020, suspected outbreaks of nervous necrosis virus (NNV) infection were observed in fourfinger threadfin (Eleutheronema tetradactylum) fingerling hatcheries in Pingtung County, southern Taiwan. Affected fish exhibited spiral swimming behaviour and abdominal distension, resulting in mortality rates between 50% and 100 ...

Population subdivision of saddled seabream Oblada melanura in the Aegean Sea revealed by genetic and morphometric analyses

Aquatic Biology, 2013
The population structure of marine fishes is often cryptic, due to limited knowledge about life history and ecological habitats. Understanding environmental stability is a challenge to retrieve possible structuring patterns responsible for dispersal and ...
