Summary: Mahua oil cake can be used as a cheap source of nutrients for fish through solid state fermentation. Feeding rohu fingerlings with diets containing 20% fermented mahua oil cake significantly improved growth performance and immunological parameters. The study suggests that solid state fermented mahua oil cake can be incorporated into fish diets up to 40% without interfering with growth, digestibility, and immunological parameters.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the supplementation of citric acid and phytase in the plant-based diet of rohu juveniles significantly improved total ash, crude protein, and dry matter content, while decreasing crude fat content. Additionally, both additives had a significant impact on bone mineralization in fish, with a positive trend observed in body proximate analysis and bone mineral concentrations with increasing levels of supplementation.

Summary: This study focused on the role of linker histone H1 (LHH1) in the ontogeny and innate immunity of the Indian major carp species rohu. The expression of LHH1 was found to be significantly increased during early development and varied in response to different infection models. However, a synthetic peptide derived from LHH1 did not possess antibacterial activity.

Summary: The study found that early selection of G1 individuals can enhance genetic gain in harvest weight in a family-based rohu genetic improvement program. This suggests that early visual identification and non-random sampling of larger individuals can be considered in carp genetic improvement programs.

Summary: The combination of autochthonous Bacillus spp. (probiotics) and fructooligosaccharide (FOS, prebiotic) significantly improved growth, feed utilization, and protease activity in Indian major carp fingerlings. Supplementation of probiotics and synbiotics enhanced haematology, serum biochemistry, and immune parameters in fish. After experimental exposure to a pathogenic bacterium, synbiotics application boosted immunity and relieved physiological stress, resulting in higher survival rates. The use of synbiotics containing autochthonous bacilli and FOS is recommended to improve growth, immunity, and pathogen resistance in fish.

Summary: Feed deprivation leads to rapid depletion of carbohydrate and lipid stores in rohu fish, accompanied by an increase in gluconeogenic and antioxidant enzyme activities and inhibition of lipogenic enzyme activity. Feed deprivation beyond 30 days causes a reduction in their overall metabolic activities.

Summary: This study analyzed the gut microbial composition of the Indian major carp, rohu, reared in different culture conditions. The results showed a significant negative correlation between dissolved oxygen content and gut microbial diversity, and a significant positive correlation between phosphate concentration and Actinobacteria abundance. Non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis revealed unique gut microbiota in rohu compared to other herbivorous fish. Co-occurrence network analysis showed positive interaction within core members and mutual exclusion between core and non-core members. Predicted microbiota function highlighted the impact of different culture conditions on the metabolic capacity of rohu gut microbiota.

Summary: Probiotics, specifically the brewer's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, have been shown to significantly improve growth performance, feed utilization, and hematobiochemical indices in rohu compared to a control diet. There were noticeable variations in intestinal microbiota and morphology between the treated and control diet groups. These findings suggest that S. cerevisiae can effectively enhance digestion and absorption of nutrients in L. rohita through improving gut microbiota and morphometry.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of arsenic exposure on the morpho-behavior, growth development, and molecular mechanisms of rohu carp in Bangladesh. The results showed significant morphological abnormalities, decreased weight, and histopathological changes in arsenic-exposed fish. The expression of heat shock protein and metallothionein genes was upregulated in response to arsenic exposure.

Summary: The study found that temperature has a significant impact on the development of rohu carp embryos and larvae, with the optimal temperature range being 30-32 degrees Celsius or lower. Higher temperatures disrupt embryonic metabolism and physiology, resulting in aberrant and unsuccessful early development.

Summary: The study evaluated the effects of Bacillus tequilensis on the growth and health status of Labeo rohita fingerlings, showing that D2 group had the highest weight gain and feed utilization. Improved haematological parameters and immune response were observed in fish that received B. tequilensis either through diets (D2) or as water additive (WA3). However, dietary administration of probiotics at a lower dose was more effective than the water additive.

Summary: This study elucidated the adaptive strategies of brine shrimp Artemia to high salinity and anoxia, including Heat Shock Proteins, Leaf Embryogenesis Abundant genes, and trehalose metabolism. Under high salinity, Artemia showed a high oxidative stress response and endocytosis/exocytosis as potential salt management strategies. Under anoxia, differential gene expression was observed in genes involved in mitochondrial function, mTOR signaling, and autophagy.

Summary: The occurrence of transgenerational innate immune memory in invertebrates offers an opportunity for increased resistance against infectious diseases in offspring. This study investigated the creation and mechanisms of transgenerational innate immune memory in brine shrimps. The results showed that primed parental generation provided protection to subsequent generations against Vibrio infections, and the disease resistance was associated with changes in gene expression and epigenetic modifications.
