Macronutrient Requirements of Silvery-Black Porgy (Sparidentex hasta): A Comparison with Other Farmed Sparid Species
(MDPI, 2017-05-13)
Silvery-black porgy (Sparidentex hasta) is recognized as one of the most promising fish species for aquaculture diversification in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea regions. In this regard, S. hasta has ...
Reproductive ethogram and mate selection in captive wild Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis)
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2017-01-20)
Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) have a high potential for aquaculture that is hampered by reproductive behavioural problems. These problems result in limited breeder participation in spawning. The ...
Identification of ciguatoxins in a shark involved in a fatal food poisoning in the Indian Ocean
(Nature Research, 2017-08-15)
Severe food poisoning events after the consumption of sharks have been reported since the 1940s;
however, there has been no clear understanding of their cause. Herein, we report for the frst time ...
Temperature affects growth allometry and development patterns in brown trout (Salmo trutta) fry: a multitrait approach
(NRC Research Press, 2017-07-17)
To study the influence of temperature (4, 6, and 12 °C) on the development of brown trout (Salmo trutta) from hatching to the end of metamorphosis, an analysis of allometric growth patterns was conducted ...
Dominance behaviour in a non-aggressive flatfish, Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) and brain mRNA abundance of selected transcripts
(Public Library of Science, 2017-09-06)
Dominance is defined as the preferential access to limited resources. The present study aimed to characterise dominance in a non-aggressive flatfish species, the Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) by ...
A comparison of recirculation aquaculture systems versus biofloc technology culture system for on-growing of fry of Tinca tinca (Cyprinidae) and fry of grey Mugil cephalus (Mugilidae)
(Elsevier, 2017-09-28)
The on-growing of tench Tinca tinca fry (1.81 ± 0.6 g) and grey mullet Mugil cephalus fry (0.65 ± 0.2 g) was carried out using two different culture systems, recirculation aquaculture system (RAS) and ...
Toward developing recombinant gonadotropin-based hormone therapies for increasing fertility in the flatfish Senegalese sole
(Public Library of Science, 2017-03-22)
Captive flatfishes, such as the Senegalese sole, typically produce very low volumes of sperm. This situation is particularly prevalent in the first generation (F1) of reared sole males, which limits the ...
Growth Performance, Hemato-Immunological Responses, and Digestive Enzyme Activities in Silvery-Black Porgy (Sparidentex hasta) Fed Dietary Bovine Lactoferrin
(Springer, 2017-10-24)
An 8-week study was conducted to evaluate three different diets supplemented with bovine lactoferrin (LF) at 0 (control), 800, and 1200 mg LF kg−1 diet on somatic growth, hemato-immunological parameters, ...
A Production Calendar Based on Water Temperature, Spat Size, and Husbandry Practices Reduce OsHV-1 μvar Impact on Cultured Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas in the Ebro Delta (Catalonia), Mediterranean Coast of Spain
(Frontiers Media, 2017-03-03)
Since 2006, the production of Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas in the Ebro Delta area has dramatically declined from around 800 metric tons (MT) per year to 138 MT in 2011. This decline in production ...
Gain-of-function mutations in Aqp3a influence zebrafish pigment pattern formation through the tissue environment
(The Company of Biologists, 2017-06-01)
The development of the pigmentation pattern in zebrafish is a tightly regulated process that depends on both the self-organizing properties of pigment cells and extrinsic cues from other tissues. Many ...
