Parasitic copepods Caligus lacustris (Copepoda: Caligidae) on the rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss in cage aquaculture: morphology, population demography, and first insights into phylogenetic relationships
(Springer, 2021-06-17)
Herein, data on rainbow trout infections with the copepod Caligus lacustris in cage aquaculture on Lake Ladoga is presented. Caligus lacustris (n = 127 ex.) were collected from a farm in Lake Ladoga ...
Description of the larval and adult hindgut tract of the common spider crab Maja brachydactyla Balss, 1922 (Brachyura, Decapoda, Malacostraca)
(Springer, 2021-04-09)
Arthropods are the most diversified animals on Earth. The morphology of the digestive system has been widely studied in insects; however, crustaceans have received comparatively little attention. This ...
Feeding habits shape infection levels by plerocercoids of the tapeworm Triaenophorus crassus in muscle of a sympatric pair of whitefish in an oligotrophic lake
(Cambridge University Press, 2021-02-17)
Lake Teletskoye (West Siberia, Russia) is inhabited by a sympatric pair of whitefish, with each member of the pair being characterized by different feeding habits. Coregonus lavaretus pidschian (Gmelin, ...
Carvacrol, Thymol, and Garlic Essential Oil Promote Skin Innate Immunity in Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) Through the Multifactorial Modulation of the Secretory Pathway and Enhancement of Mucus Protective Capacity
(Frontiers Media, 2021-03-12)
One of the main targets for the use of phytogenics in aquafeeds is the mucosal tissues as they constitute a physical and biochemical shield against environmental and pathogenic threats, comprising ...
A multiplier peroxiporin signal transduction pathway powers piscine spermatozoa
(National Academy of Sciences, 2021-03-09)
The primary task of a spermatozoon is to deliver its nuclear payload to the egg to form the next-generation zygote. With polyandry repeatedly evolving in the animal kingdom, however, sperm competition ...
Development, nutrition, and rearing practices of relevant catfish species (Siluriformes) at early stages
(Wiley, 2021-06-17)
Catfish (Siluriformes) are important species for aquaculture worldwide, with an annual production in 2018 of ca. 6 million t. This review focuses on reassessing larval development, first feeding, and ...
Weaning strategies affect larval performance in yellowfin seabream (Acanthopagrus latus)
(Elsevier, 2021-03-24)
A 30-day study was carried out to determine the influence of different weaning strategies (WS) on growth and survival rates, stress resistance, digestive enzyme activities and whole body fatty acid ...
Brewery by-products (yeast and spent grain) as protein sources in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) feeds
(Elsevier, 2021-05-17)
Two trials were conducted to test the effect of partial replacement of fishmeal by two brewery industry by-products, yeast and spent grain, included in isoproteic and isolipidic diets for gilthead sea ...
Lineage-level divergence of copepod glycerol transporters and the emergence of isoform-specific trafficking regulation
(Nature Research, 2021-05-31)
Transmembrane conductance of small uncharged solutes such as glycerol typically occurs through aquaglyceroporins (Glps), which are commonly encoded by multiple genes in metazoan organisms. To date, ...
Survey on laboratories and consultants working in the diagnostics of European seabass and gilthead seabream diseases: preliminary results
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2021-04-27)
European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) are prevailing species in
Mediterranean marine finfish aquaculture, and despite an increasing demand of the global markets ...
