Yolk Absorption Rate and Mouth Development in Larvae of Dormitator latifrons (Perciformes: Eleotridae)
(MDPI, 2022-12-07)
Fish larvae suffer high starvation mortality during the transition from yolk absorption to exogenous feeding, and the size of the developing buccal structures limits the food they can consume. Determining ...
Modulation of gut microbiota and intestinal immune response in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) by dietary bile salt supplementation
(Frontiers, 2023-04-24)
Given their role in lipid digestion, feed supplementation with bile salts could be an economic and sustainable solution to alterations in adiposity and intestinal inflammation generated by some strategies ...
Phytogenics From Sage and Lemon Verbena Promote Growth, Systemic Immunity and Disease Resistance in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)
(Frontiers Media, 2022-02-08)
The transcriptomic response of the head kidney, the main lymphohematopoietic tissue of the body, was evaluated in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts fed a functional feed containing a phytogenic rich ...
Assessing the economic impact of diseases in Mediterranean grow-out farms culturing European sea bass
(Elsevier, 2021-09-27)
The aim of this work is to propose a novel and formal approach to evaluate the direct costs of diseases caused by different pathogens as well as their economic impact on typical Mediterranean grow-out ...
Microbiome study of a coupled aquaponic system: unveiling the independency of bacterial communities and their beneficial influences among different compartments
(Nature Research, 2023-11-11)
To understand the microbiome composition and interplay among bacterial communities in different compartments of a coupled freshwater aquaponics system growing flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) and ...
The onset of piscivory in a freshwater fish species: analysis of behavioural and physiological traits
(Wiley, 2020-03-12)
The onset of piscivory in fish, resulting in a shift from zooplankton or invertebrate to fish prey, was studied on pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) larvae displaying and not displaying piscivorous behaviour ...
Role of Ion Channels in the Maintenance of Sperm Motility and Swimming Behavior in a Marine Teleost
(MDPI, 2022-10-11)
In oviparous marine fishes, the hyperosmotic induction of sperm motility in seawater (SW) is well established, however, the potential function of ion channels in the maintenance of post activated ...
Utilization of grape seed oil as a dietary lipid source in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) diets
(Taylor and Francis, 2020-02-05)
A 60-day feeding trial was conducted to determine the effects of different levels of grape seed oil (GO) on growth performance, digestive enzyme activity, fillet proximate and fatty acid composition of ...
Is a cannibal different from its conspecifics? A behavioural, morphological, muscular and retinal structure study with pikeperch juveniles under farming conditions
(Elsevier, 2020-02-05)
Cannibalism is defined as the act of killing and consuming the whole, or major part, of an individual belonging to the same species, irrespective of its stage of development. Intra-cohort cannibalism ...
Molecular identification, life cycle characterization, and hatchery seed production of dwarf oysters from the Ebro Delta (Spain)
(EDP Sciences, 2022-05-20)
Dwarf oysters in the Ebro Delta are only observed growing on local pen shells, Pinna nobilis L., currently under extinction risk. The species identification of these populations is uncertain, given ...
