Summary: This study investigated the relationship between Lake trout stocks in the Great Lakes basin and a thiamine-dependent early mortality syndrome (EMS) and egg thiamine (B1) concentration. It was found that Finger Lakes lake trout are better able to cope with low egg thiamine concentration, possibly due to their lower thiamine utilization rates, which may result from adaptive genetic variation.

Summary: This research investigated the impact of heavy metals on the reproductive health of rainbow trout from two locations. The study found that fish from the more polluted site had higher levels of iron and zinc in their tissues. Additionally, these fish experienced more severe damage such as cellular damage, apoptosis, oxidative damage, and altered hormone levels, compared to fish from the less polluted site.

Summary: This research characterized and compared the subchronic impacts of Cu and a Cu, Cd, and Zn mixture on early life stages of rainbow trout. The results showed that the mixture of Cu, Cd, and Zn had more pronounced effects on survival and sublethal toxicity compared to individual Cu treatments, leading to reduced growth and development in exposed fish.

Summary: The factors influencing diversification rates in the Apiaceae tribe Apieae can be intrinsic or extrinsic, with growth habit potentially playing a role. While herbaceous and woody lineages show similar diversification rates, Southern Hemisphere Apium stands out with significantly higher rates likely due to multiple long-distance dispersal events. Wood anatomy is influenced by stem architecture and reproductive strategy, rather than continental or insular origin.

Summary: Increasing levels of mealworm inclusion in the diet had negative effects on growth rates of juvenile flounders and feed utilization efficiency. However, up to 40% replacement of fish meal with mealworm improved feed utilization efficiency. Different levels of mealworm inclusion also affected nutrient digestibility, plasma cholesterol levels, fatty acid composition in fillets, and immune-related enzyme activities in juvenile flounders.

Summary: This study examined the stem anatomy of 87 species from the subfamily Apioideae and compared them with other related species. The results show that wood anatomy does not differ greatly between apioids and their close relatives, but more distantly related species have noticeable differences. The height of the plant was found to be positively correlated with vessel element and fibre length, as well as vessel diameter. The study also found that wood ground tissue in apioids can range from entirely fibrous to parenchymatous. These findings provide insights into the relationship between internode length, reproductive strategy, and wood ground tissue type in apioids.

Summary: Through a 120-day feeding trial, it was found that the addition of BHT to the feed had no significant impact on the growth performance, feed utilization, and survival rate of the marine fish olive flounder. However, the BHT concentration in the muscle tissue increased in a dose-dependent manner up to 60 days of the experiment and then declined among all treatment groups. In addition, BHT had no significant influence on the whole-body proximate composition, nonspecific immune responses, and hematological parameters (except triglycerides).

Summary: Due to strict fishing quotas for Atlantic cod, European flounder has become the third most commercially fished species in the Baltic Sea. However, recent reports indicate a decline in the fitness and catch volume of European flounder in the Baltic Sea. A study was conducted to examine the digestive tract of European flounder from the Slupsk Bank in order to determine the factors behind these changes. The results revealed a high prevalence and intensity of Glugea stephani infection and microsporidiosis, suggesting the influence of environmental pollution and oxygen deficiency on parasite success.

Summary: This study determined the phylogenetic position of the remaining six species in the Dorema genus through molecular phylogenetic analysis, confirming that they belong to a major clade in section Peucedanoides. The addition of ETS marker in the analysis further supported the classification of Ferula and provided new branch support. However, some branches still remained unresolved, and the monophyly of Dorema within section Peucedanoides remains uncertain. A new combination and two new nomina nova are proposed.

Summary: The acclimatization of certain ectothermic vertebrates to winter conditions involves reduced energy consumption, achieved through decreased movement activity, depression of cellular functions, or switching to anaerobic energy production. This study on crucian carp showed that winter-acclimatized fish exhibited lower metabolic rates and a shift to anaerobic energy production during anoxia. Winter dormancy in crucian carp is achieved through active reduction of energy consumption, a slowed metabolic rate, and a direct response to oxygen absence.

Summary: According to life-history theory, there might be different immunological strategies between reproductive and non-reproductive periods due to limited resources. Our study on two sympatric marine fish species, rockfish and sandperch, found that reproductive individuals showed lower immune function, but higher levels of natural antibodies in rockfish females, compared to their non-reproductive counterparts. On the other hand, reproductively active sandperch males showed lower levels of natural antibodies and higher neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and spleen index compared to non-reproductive males. The study highlights the species-specific patterns of immunity and the potential influence of resource limitation and abiotic factors on immune trade-offs in fish.

The results showed that the functions of G6pc and Gck in LMB were highly conserved in evolution, and the interconversion of glucose and G6P in the liver was well regulated at the transcript level under high starch diet, but a futile cycle was induced after a glucose load.
