First report of Gambierdiscus in the Western Mediterranean Sea (Balearic Islands)
(IOC - UNESCO, 2018-02)
Gambierdiscus (Dinophyceae) species are benthic dinoflagellates living in marine littoral zones of circumtropical areas and have recently been described in temperate waters [1]. Some species are producers ...
Genetic selection for high growth improves the efficiency of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) in using novel diets with insect meal, single-cell protein and a DHA rich-microalgal oil
(Elsevier, 2023-08-29)
Genetic selection and novel raw materials for aquafeeds are current key tools in the ongoing effort to increase the
productivity, efficiency, and sustainability of the aquaculture sector. Selective ...
Metapopulation Structure of Two Species of Pikeworm (Triaenophorus, Cestoda) Parasitizing the Postglacial Fish Community in an Oligotrophic Lake
(MDPI, 2023-10-06)
In the present study, we estimated the levels of infestation of the main fish species that are hosts for two Triaenophorus species: T. crassus and T. nodulosus. The prevalence of T. crassus and T. ...
Editorial: Physiological Impacts of Global Warming in Aquatic Organisms
(Frontiers Media, 2022-05-09)
Climate change is reshaping our planet. Warming surface waters, acidification, and deoxygenation are the most critical effects of climate change in aquatic environments. Increasing mean water temperatures ...
Can the genetic background modulate the effects of feed additives? Answers from gut microbiome and transcriptome interactions in farmed gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) fed with a mix of phytogenics, organic acids or probiotics
(Elsevier, 2024-03-05)
The synergies between selective breeding and feed additives remain under-explored in farmed fish, despite their
sustainability. Reference (REF) and selected gilthead sea bream for growth (GS) were fed ...
Consistent habitat segregation between sexes in the spider crabs Maja brachydactyla and Maja squinado(Brachyura), as revealed by stable isotopes
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2016-01-20)
Differences in the resource use patterns of males and females of the spider crab species Maja brachydactylaBalss, 1922 and M. squinado (Herbst, 1788) from several geographic areas (three ...
Insect glycerol transporters evolved by functional co-option and gene replacement
(Nature Research, 2015-07-17)
Transmembrane glycerol transport is typically facilitated by aquaglyceroporins in Prokaryota and Eukaryota. In holometabolan insects however, aquaglyceroporins are absent, yet several species possess ...
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 ...
Rearing European Eel (Anguilla anguilla) Elvers in a Biofloc System
(MDPI, 2023-10-17)
European eel (Anguilla anguilla) elvers (initial body weight (BW) = 3 g) were raised in triplicate for 60 days in a biofloc system (BFT) at 21 °C. Data from the current first study evaluating this farming ...
Linkage mapping, comparative genome analysis, and QTL detection for growth in a non-model teleost, the meagre Argyrosomus regius, using ddRAD sequencing
(Springer Nature, 2022-03-29)
Meagre (Argyrosomus regius), is a benthopelagic species rapidly emerging in aquaculture, due to its low food to biomass conversion rate, good fillet yield and ease of production. Tracing a species genomic ...
