A Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of the Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus). [PDF]

Genome Biol Evol, 2021
AbstractThe spotted scat, Scatophagus argus is a member of the family Scatophagidae found in Indo-Pacific coastal waters. It is an emerging commercial aquaculture species, particularly in East and Southeast Asia. In this study, the first chromosome-level genome of S. argus was constructed using PacBio and Hi-C sequencing technologies. The genome is 572.

Identification and expression analysis of two Wnt4 genes in the spotted scat (Scatophagus argus)

Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2016
Background: WNT4 is a protein that plays a crucial role in ovarian differentiation and development in mammals, with a relatively well understood function in mammalian gonadal differentiation. The role of WNT4 in teleost fish; however, remains unclear. In

Pigment Identification and Gene Expression Analysis during Erythrophore Development in Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus) Larvae. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2023
Red coloration is considered an economically important trait in some fish species, including spotted scat, a marine aquaculture fish. Erythrophores are gradually covered by melanophores from the embryonic stage. Despite studies of black spot formation and melanophore coloration in the species, little is known about erythrophore development, which is ...

Genome Survey of Male and Female Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus). [PDF]

Animals (Basel), 2019
The spotted scat, Scatophagus argus, is a species of fish that is widely propagated within the Chinese aquaculture industry and therefore has significant economic value. Despite this, studies of its genome are severely lacking. In the present study, a genomic survey of S. argus was conducted using next-generation sequencing (NGS).

Identification, Expression, and Functions of the Somatostatin Gene Family in Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus). [PDF]

Genes (Basel), 2020
Somatostatins (SSTs) are a family of proteins consisting of structurally diverse polypeptides that play important roles in the growth regulation in vertebrates. In the present study, four somatostatin genes (SST1, SST3, SST5, and SST6) were identified and characterized in the spotted scat (Scatophagus argus).

Lysine requirement of the spotted scat Scatophagus argus (Linaeus, 1766) [PDF]

Israeli Journal of Aquaculture - Bamidgeh, 2021
The study aimed to determine the lysine requirement of young spotted scat Scatophagus argus (Linaeus, 1776) (average body weight = 10.7 g). The feeding trial was conducted for 8 weeks with 5 experimental diets which were isonitrogenous, isocaloric and isolipidic (35% CP, 18.3 MJ·kg-1, containing lysine levels as treatments containing equal dietary ...
