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 ...
Growth Performance, Hemato-Immunological Responses, and Digestive Enzyme Activities in Silvery-Black Porgy (Sparidentex hasta) Fed Dietary Bovine Lactoferrin
(Springer, 2017-10-24)
An 8-week study was conducted to evaluate three different diets supplemented with bovine lactoferrin (LF) at 0 (control), 800, and 1200 mg LF kg−1 diet on somatic growth, hemato-immunological parameters, ...
Short- and long-term effects on growth and expression patterns in response to incubation temperatures in Senegalese sole
(Elsevier, 2018-05-25)
In this study, the short- and long-term effects of embryo incubation temperatures (16, 18 and 20 °C) on development and growth of the flatfish Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) was determined by ...
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 ...
Seasonal-and dose-dependent effects of recombinant gonadotropins on sperm production and quality in the flatfish Solea senegalensis
(Elsevier, 2018-07-02)
Consecutive treatments with recombinant follicle-stimulating and luteinizing hormones (rFsh and rLh, respectively) stimulate spermatogenesis and potentiate sperm production in pubescent specimens of the ...
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 ...
Understanding the Interaction Effects between Dietary Lipid Content and Rearing Temperature on Growth Performance, Feed Utilization, and Fat Deposition of Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax)
(MDPI, 2021-02-03)
This study was conducted to elucidate the interaction effects of temperature and dietary lipid levels (2 × 2 factorial experiment) on the growth performance, muscle, and liver composition in adult farmed ...
Accelerometry of Seabream in a Sea-Cage: Is Acceleration a Good Proxy for Activity?
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02-22)
Activity assessment of individual fish in a sea-cage could provide valuable insights into the behavior, but also physiological well-being and resilience, of the fish population in the cage. Acceleration ...
Baseline pathological data of the wedge clam Donax trunculus from the Tyrrhenian Sea (Mediterranean Basin)
(Inter Research, 2019-02-28)
In recent years, a collapse in Donax trunculus fishing yields has occurred in the Tyrrhenian Sea (Mediterranean Basin). There is little information available on the impact disease may have had on D. ...
