Fast skeletal muscle transcriptome of the Gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) determined by next generation sequencing
(BMC, 2012-05-11)
Background: The gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata L.) occurs around the Mediterranean and along Eastern Atlantic
coasts from Great Britain to Senegal. It is tolerant of a wide range of temperatures and ...
Developmental and moult cycle related biochemical changes in larvae of the spider crab, Maja brachydactyla (Brachyura: Majidae)
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2012-09-30)
Ontogenetic changes in dry weight, elemental composition (CHN), and digestive enzyme activities (total
protease, amylase) were studied during the moulting cycle of all larval instars (zoea I-II, megalopa; ...
Development Temperature Has Persistent Effects on Muscle Growth Responses in Gilthead Sea Bream
(Public Library of Science, 2012-12-17)
Initially we characterised growth responses to altered nutritional input at the transcriptional and tissue levels in the fast
skeletal muscle of juvenile gilthead sea bream. Fish reared at 21–22uC ...
Aquaporin evolution in fishes
(Frontiers Media, 2011-07-26)
Aquaporins represent a primordial group of transmembrane solvent channels that have
been documented throughout the living biota. This facet alone emphasizes the positive
selection pressure for proteins ...
Role of aquaporins during teleost gametogenesis and early embryogenesis
(Frontiers Media, 2011-09-30)
Aquaporins are believed to be involved in homeosmotic mechanisms of marine teleosts.
Increasing data suggest that these molecular water channels play critical roles associated
with the adaptation of ...
Coordinated gene expression during gilthead sea bream skeletogenesis and its disruption by nutritional hypervitaminosis A
(BMC, 2011-02-09)
Background: Vitamin A (VA) has a key role in vertebrate morphogenesis, determining body patterning and growth
through the control of cell proliferation and differentiation processes. VA regulates primary ...
Growth of Octopus vulgaris (Cuvier, 1797) in tanks in the Ebro Delta (NE Spain): effects of temperature, salinity and culture density
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2011-03-30)
To assess the possibility of O. vulgaris ongrowing using tanks or cages in the bays of the Ebro Delta, we performed several growth trials of common octopus held in tanks. Effects of environmental factors ...
Identification of European species of Maja (Decapoda: Brachyura: Majidae): RFLP analyses of COI mtDNA and morphological considerations
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2011-03-30)
Four species of crabs of the genus Maja have been described along the European coast: M. brachydactyla, M.
squinado, M. goltziana and M. crispata. The commercially important species M. brachydactyla ...
Design and characterization of genetically engineered zebrafish aquaporin-3 mutants highly permeable to the cryoprotectant ethylene glycol
(BMC, 2011-04-08)
Background: Increasing cell membrane permeability to water and cryoprotectants is critical for the successful
cryopreservation of cells with large volumes. Artificial expression of water-selective ...
Dietary aquaculture by-product hydrolysates: impact on the transcriptomic response of the intestinal mucosa of European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) fed low fish meal diets
(BMC, 2018-05-24)
Aquaculture production is expected to double by 2030, and demands for aquafeeds and raw materials are expected to increase accordingly. Sustainable growth of aquaculture will require the development of ...
