Summary: The importance of shrimp count size with regard to shrimp quality was demonstrated through this study. The results showed that larger shrimps tend to have higher levels of amino acids, sugars, and organic acids compared to smaller shrimps. Additionally, the PLS model and sensory analysis confirmed a positive correlation between shrimp size and attributes such as sweetness, juiciness, crispness, and red color.

Summary: This study investigated the phenotypic and genetic variances and relationships for body weight and body color traits of black tiger shrimp. It found that the color of cooked shrimp can be improved indirectly by genetic selection based on the color of uncooked/live shrimp. Additionally, the intensity of coloration is positively correlated with body weight traits.

Summary: This study compared the efficiency of different cryoprotectants and thawing temperatures on germ cell cryopreservation in two marine shrimp species, finding that 10% DMSO and 10% GLY with vitrification are suitable for Fenneropenaeus merguiensis and Penaeus monodon, respectively. Thawing temperature was also found to have an impact on cell viability.

Summary: The gut microbiome is important for the immune system of both invertebrates and vertebrates. Pre and pro-biotics can enhance the shrimp immune system by increasing the activity of certain enzymes. Changes in the host immune system during viral infection can affect the gut microbiome and potentially lead to other infections.

Summary: In this study, a novel TRIM37 homolog called PmTRIM37 was identified, which plays important roles in regulating innate immune processes, particularly antiviral and proinflammatory cytokine responses. PmTRIM37 is highly expressed in immune-related tissues and its expression is up-regulated after white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection. Knockdown of PmTRIM37 promotes WSSV replication and VP28 expression, suggesting its negative role in WSSV infection. Furthermore, PmTRIM37 positively regulates the NF-κB pathway and Antimicrobial peptides (AMP) expression during WSSV infection.

Summary: In this study, a novel glutaredoxin (Grx), named PmGrx2, was identified in Penaeus monodon. The study showed that PmGrx2 plays an important role in shrimps' resistance to marine environmental stresses. In addition, inhibition of PmGrx2 resulted in shrimp being exposed to a greater risk of oxidative damage.

Summary: The study showed that the pathogens VP and WSSV significantly reduced hemocyte counts and increased glucose and serotonin levels in the hemolymph of black tiger shrimp. These pathogenic treatments altered the expression pattern of candidate genes and affected the physiological and biochemical parameters, resulting in negative impacts on growth and mortality of the experimental shrimps.

Summary: The global shrimp farming industry is facing increasing threats from emerging viruses. A novel picornavirus, Penaeus vannamei picornavirus (PvPV), was discovered in moribund White leg shrimp in China in 2015. PvPV has unique genetic and protein structures, suggesting it may be a new species in the family Dicistroviridae. Further studies on PvPV could provide insight into its evolution, pathogenicity, and aid in diagnostic technique development.

Summary: As a highly conserved transcription factor family, DMRTs play important roles in sex determination and sexual differentiation in various animals. In this study, a DM-domain gene named PmDMRT11E was identified in Penaeus monodon, and it was found to be highly expressed in the testis and play a crucial regulatory role during embryonic development. Additionally, PmDMRT11E was found to be closely related to gonadal development and spermatogenesis.

Summary: This study evaluated genetic parameters and genotype-by-environment interaction for nine body morphological traits of black tiger shrimp using image-based data. Heritability estimates for growth-related morphological traits were moderately high, with high genetic correlations among traits, indicating simultaneous improvement through indirect genetic selection. However, negative genetic correlations were observed between shape traits and major growth traits, suggesting potential issues with genetic selection for rapid growth in shaping shrimp.

Summary: This study identified eight shrimp proteins with sIgE binding activity in the sera of eight shrimp-allergic patients from China, with phosphopyruvate hydratase being the most prevalent IgE-binding protein among these patients. The findings may provide essential information for improving allergy prevention and clinical treatment of shrimp allergy in China.

Summary: In this study, a fibrinogen-related protein in the black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon was identified and characterized. The PmFreP was found to be mainly expressed in the intestine, able to bind bacteria and facilitate the clearance of pathogens in shrimp innate immunity. These results suggest that PmFreP may serve as pattern recognition receptors implicated in shrimp innate immunity.
