Summary: The compensatory growth response (CGR) was observed in both sobaity and yellowfin seabream juveniles following a period of feed restriction, with the sobaity exhibiting a full CGR during the refeeding period. Different physiological parameters, including body weight, feed conversion ratio, and antioxidant enzyme activities, showed varied responses to the feed restriction among the two species, indicating that increasing the severity of feed restriction may lead to oxidative stress and compromise the health condition of the fish.

Summary: The study reveals that cryopreservation significantly reduces the motility parameters of yellowfin seabream sperm, while the enzyme activity between fresh and cryopreserved sperm shows minimal difference. Additionally, with longer cryopreservation times, some enzyme activities tend to initially increase and then decrease.

Summary: Metagenomic analysis was used to study the feeding habits and stomach microbiome of yellowfin seabream in Daya Bay, China. The diet mainly consists of fish and bivalves, with no significant differences observed among different weight classes. Several abundant species were identified in both the stomach contents and microbiome, providing valuable information for assessing the feeding ecology of yellowfin seabream in the region.

Summary: The uptake and accumulation of silicon in grass plants can alleviate both biotic and abiotic stresses. Si supplementation increases antioxidant enzyme activity, which reduces oxidative stress caused by herbivore attacks. Atmospheric CO2 levels affect Si accumulation in grasses. Si accumulation and antioxidant enzyme activity are highest under reduced CO2 conditions and lowest under projected CO2 levels. Grasses may become more susceptible to herbivory under future CO2 conditions.

Summary: The fasting/cyclic refeeding effect on freshwater prawn post larvae was evaluated over a period of 75 days in both biofloc and clear water cultures. The results showed that the prawns in biofloc culture had higher growth and enzymatic activity compared to those in clear water culture. The study confirmed the beneficial effects of biofloc technology on growth performance, digestive enzyme activity, and prawn health during short fasting periods.

Summary: In this study, the effect of dietary taurine supplementation on L. calcarifer juveniles was examined. The results showed that taurine supplementation significantly enhanced the growth performance and flesh quality of the fish. The expression of IGF-1 was also increased, indicating a potential enhancement of the fish's immune system and growth. Therefore, taurine could be considered as a promising alternative in enhancing fish immune system and growth performance.

Summary: This study examined the effects of dietary selenium nanoparticles (Se-N) on the performance of whiteleg shrimp juveniles. The results showed that supplementing the diet with Se-N improved the growth performance and feed conversion ratio of the shrimp. Increasing levels of Se-N in the diet also led to higher selenium levels in the shrimp's body. Additionally, Se-N supplementation increased the activities of certain enzymes and reduced oxidative stress in the shrimp.

Summary: The study evaluated the effects of different DHA levels on the diet of yellowtail sea bream larvae for 30 days. The results showed that different DHA levels did not significantly affect the survival rate and growth performance of the larvae. The activity of digestive enzymes fluctuated among the experimental groups, but did not change significantly in most intervals. The DHA content and DHA/EPA ratio in the larvae were correlated with the DHA level.

Summary: Finding high-value alternative protein sources for sparing fish meal in aquafeeds is essential for sustainable development in aquaculture. Recent research suggests that biofloc can be a promising option due to its protein and lipid content, as well as its beneficial microorganisms and nutrients. Incorporating biofloc into feeds can improve growth, feed efficiency, and immune health.

Summary: The study found that supplementing goldfish with 400 mg/kg of GSPE improved their growth and health condition. Compared to the control group, goldfish fed with GSPE-supplemented diets showed higher weight gain, specific growth rate, and lower feed conversion ratio. The fillet lipid decreased and protein levels increased in the fish fed GSPE-supplemented diets. Serum triglyceride, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase levels were also decreased in these groups.
