Pentaplacodinium saltonense gen. et sp. nov. (Dinophyceae) and its relationship to the cyst-defined genus Operculodinium and yessotoxin-producing Protoceratium reticulatum
(Elsevier, 2017-12-16)
Strains of a dinoflagellate from the Salton Sea, previously identified as Protoceratium reticulatum and yessotoxin producing, have been reexamined morphologically and genetically and Pentaplacodinium ...
Spray-dried plasma promotes growth, modulates the activity of antioxidant defenses, and enhances the immune status of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) fingerlings
(Oxford University Press, 2015-01-01)
Terrestrial animal byproduct meals, including nonruminant blood meal and blood products, represent the largest and largely untapped safe source of animal protein available within the international market ...
Effects of high‐level fishmeal replacement by plant proteins supplemented with different levels of lysine on growth performance and incidence of systemic noninfectious granulomatosis in meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Wiley, 2018-06-29)
The potential use of plant protein (PP) blends (soybean, wheat, rapeseed, corn gluten and wheat gluten) in the diet of juvenile meagre (Argyrosomus regius) was investigated at increasing levels to replace ...
Mitochondrial aquaporin-8-mediated hydrogen peroxide transport is essential for teleost spermatozoon motility
(Nature Research, 2015-01-14)
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), particularly hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), cause oxidative cell damage and inhibit sperm function. In most oviparous fishes that spawn in seawater (SW), spermatozoa may be ...
Multibiomarker biomonitoring approach using three bivalve species in the Ebro Delta (Catalonia, Spain)
(Springer, 2018-10-31)
Bivalves have proved to be useful bioindicators for environmental pollution. In the present study, mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis), cockles (Cerastoderma edule), and razor shells (Solen marginatus) ...
The Lineage-Specific Evolution of Aquaporin Gene Clusters Facilitated Tetrapod Terrestrial Adaptation
(Public Library of Science, 2014-11-26)
A major physiological barrier for aquatic organisms adapting to terrestrial life is dessication in the aerial environment. This barrier was nevertheless overcome by the Devonian ancestors of extant ...
Detection of isothermally amplified ostreid herpesvirus 1 DNA in Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) using a miniaturised electrochemical biosensor
(Elsevier, 2019-09-02)
Given the threat that ostreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) poses to shellfish aquaculture, the need for rapid, user-friendly and cost-effective methods to detect this marine pathogen and minimise its impact ...
Mating behaviour and gamete release in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata, Linnaeus 1758) held in captivity
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2015-02-11)
The present study aimed to describe the reproductive behaviour of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) in captivity. Twenty-four mature gilthead seabream, divided in two tanks, were utilized for the present ...
High genetic variability of Alexandrium catenella directly detected in environmental samples from the Southern Austral Ecosystem of Chile
(Elsevier, 2017-12-21)
Chilean waters are often affected by Alexandrium catenella, one of the leading organisms behind Harmful Algae Blooms (HABs). Genetic variability for this species are commonly carried out from cultured ...
Temperature effects on the growth and survival of tdh positive Vibrio parahaemolyticus in tissues of postharvest Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum)
(Elsevier, 2017-10-31)
Bivalve storage at inadequate temperatures contains greater densities of Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The objective of the present study was to determine if there were any differences in growth and survival ...
