Effects of the ratio of commercial feed to mixed microalgae on metamorphosis, physiological health, and related gene expression in Penaeus vannamei larvae

High-quality shrimp seedlings are the lifeline of the Penaeus vannamei industry, but their production is often limited by unstable and expensive living microalgae. To develop a more sustainable larval...

Size selectivity in red king crab (Paralithodes camtschaticus) pots depends on the number of escape openings and catch size

To reduce catches of red king crab (Paralithodes camtschaticus) below the minimum legal size (MLS), it is mandatory to use four circular escape openings when conducting quota-regulated pot fishing in...

Pivotal role of pomca in the rapid growth of gynogenetic red crucian carp

Gynogenesis is a key technique for germplasm improvement in aquaculture. Previously, we successfully generated gynogenetic red crucian carp (GRCC) by artificial gynogenesis using blunt snout bream....

Reconstruction and pattern analysis of the three-dimensional distribution of Trachinotus ovatus in large offshore aquaculture cage using omnidirectional sonar

The precise monitoring of spatial fish distribution in offshore aquaculture was critical for the optimization of feeding efficiency and facility design, yet traditional methods were incapable of continuous...

Effects of Eleutherine bulbosa powder on the broodstock reproduction, growth performance, gut microbiota, and resistance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) larvae against Aeromonas hydrophila infection

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a major aquaculture species worldwide, yet the limited availability of high-quality seed remains a key constraint to improving production. This study aimed to...

Biofloc acts as a microbial reservoir buffering salinity-induced community turnover in shrimp aquaculture: Insights from quantitative and functional microbiome analysis

Salinity drives critical trade-offs between shrimp survival and growth, especially in shrimp biofloc culture systems, yet how it mechanistically influences absolute bacterial abundance and quantitative...

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Acvr1b mutations alter growth performance in grass carp

The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling pathway is a central regulator of skeletal muscle growth in vertebrates, but the function of Acvr1b (activin receptor type 1B) remains poorly...

Genetic improvement for climate-resilient aquaculture stocks: perspectives on applications in giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii)

Climate change poses increasing challenges to inland aquaculture through rising temperatures, dissolved oxygen depletion, and heightened disease pressure. Genetic improvement of climate resilience has...

Wild habitats heterogeneity and aquaculture captivity shape population-level morphological divergence in Macrobrachium rosenbergii: Insights from multivariate morphometric approaches

The giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, underpins Bangladesh's aquaculture sector, contributing substantially to livelihoods, nutrition, and export earnings. However, systematic assessments...

Moderate growth and limited movement of the prized golden sandfish sea cucumber, Holothuria lessoni

Fishery management measures and culture-based stocking programs are adapted depending on animal life-history traits and mobility. However, many heavily exploited species lack data on movement and life-history...

Estimating dietary protein, energy, and amino acid requirements of European catfish (Silurus glanis Linnaeus, 1758) across different growth stages using a bioenergetic approach

There is a lack of information about the nutritional requirements of European catfish (Silurus glanis) for aquaculture. This study aimed to fill this gap using a bioenergetic factorial model. To develop...

Integration of contrast-adaptive colour correction and convolutional neural network for cryptocaryon fish disease detection

Integrating Contrast Colour Correction (CACC) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) can help fish breeders in earlier classification and identification of Cryptocaryon fish disease (protozoan white...

Diversity and variations of the catches from gillnet fisheries in two large rivers in Thailand: insight from long-term monitoring data

Fish diversity and functional diversity of the catches from gillnet fisheries of the Chao Phraya River (CPR) and the Bang Pakong River (BPR) in the central of Thailand were analyzed, using the monitoring...

Determinants of fish and fishery products consumption in India: A partial least squares regression approach

Understanding the factors of fish and fishery products consumption is important for various operators in the fisheries industry. The knowledge of the determinants of fish and fishery products consumption...

Impact of physical and sensory enrichment on the physiological status and disease resistance of triploid rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Environmental enrichment is increasingly recognised as a practical approach to improve the welfare of farmed fish. In rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), a species of high economic and scientific relevance,...

Status of aquaculture governance in Bangladesh and steps to achieve responsible aquaculture

Aquaculture is the leading animal food-producing sector in Bangladesh and is ranked 5th globally, yielding 2.64 million MT in 2021. Sustainable aquaculture principally relies on an effective governance...

The environmental and industrial significance of phytoplankton: Mitigating climate change and promoting human health

Phytoplankton are vital to both the environment and biotechnology. As primary producers, they drive essential processes such as carbon fixation, oxygen production, and the cycling of key nutrients,...

Unraveling the mystery of cannibalism in the larvae of the Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis)

To prevent production losses due to larval cannibalism, the behaviour and mechanisms in Z2-M stage E. sinensis larvae were investigated. The findings revealed that cannibalism primarily occurred during...

Non-specific immune responses of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, to dietary cottonseed meal and probiotic Saccharomyces cerevisiae (PTCC 5052) inclusion

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of adding cottonseed meal and yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain PTCC 5052), to diet on humoral and mucosal immunological responses, as well as...

Potential enzyme-producing probiotic from Channa striata for enhancing growth, digestive enzyme activity, and antioxidant defense in juvenile Oreochromis niloticus

Aquaculture farming often faces diseases, causing economic loss. Probiotics offers an eco-friendly alternatives antibiotic, improving fish health, immunity, and resistance, without adverse side effects....

Environmental fingerprints of cultivation site and depth: Variation in shell shape and coloration of the green mussel (Perna viridis) from the southeast coast of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh

Understanding how environmental gradients influence bivalve shell characteristics is essential for developing ecological knowledge, strengthening consumer preferences, and increasing market value. This...

Thriving industry and ecological impacts from exotic red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) in China

The red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii), an alien species native to the southern United States and northern Mexico, was introduced into China from Japan in 1929. Its prolific reproduction, rapid...

Modeling the filter-feeding behavior of the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) in response to natural variations in seston availability in Santa Catarina, Brazil

This study investigated the feeding behavior of the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) in response to natural variations in seston availability in Santa Catarina, Brazil, to inform assessments of ecological...

Pond water dynamics and cultivation performance of super-intensive whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) farming in membrane-based recirculating aquaculture system

Super-intensive aquaculture offers a viable strategy to maximize shrimp production while minimizing environmental impact. This study developed and evaluated a membrane-integrated recirculating aquaculture...

Alteration characteristics of intestinal mucosal immunity and transcriptome in Songpu mirror carp (Cyprinus carpio Songpu) exposed to acute cadmium exposure

This study focused on the acute toxic effects of cadmium (Cd) on Songpu mirror carp (Cyprinus carpio Songpu) with an average body mass of (35.4 ± 0.4) g. Changes in intestinal immunity function and...
