Summary: The study investigated the effect of triploidization on intestinal microflora and fast growth in autotriploid Carassius auratus. The results showed significant changes in gut microbiota and characteristics, as well as increased digestive enzyme activity in triploid fish. Additionally, several bacterial species were found to be positively correlated with fast growth in triploid fish.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of various concentrations of eugenol on blood physiological and biochemical indexes, and muscle flavor in crucian carp. The results showed that eugenol treatment significantly decreased red blood cells and platelets while had minimal effect on white blood cells and hemoglobin. Additionally, eugenol increased the levels of lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase in the blood, and affected the flavor of the fish.

Summary: The study evaluated the effects of fermentation products of kitchen waste on juvenile allogynogenetic gibel carp CAS III, showing positive impacts when the supplementation levels were below 12%. The weight gain rate, enzyme activities, serum biochemistry, and histological examinations were influenced by the different levels of FPKW in the diets over a 60-day trial period.

Summary: High stocking density and Cu and trichlorfon exposure induce physiological stress in fish, causing detrimental effects such as inhibition of growth performance and reduced feed intake. This study investigates the protective effects of dietary supplementation with Scoparia dulcis extract on fish under these stressors. The results suggest that dietary supplementation with SDE may be a useful nutritional strategy for relieving the stresses induced by high stocking density and Cu and trichlorfon exposure in fish.

Summary: This study investigated the impacts of glyphosate (GLY) on crucian carp and the potential protective roles of two commonly used aquaculture probiotics. Results showed that GLY exposure caused growth retardation, reduced fat content, and altered gut microbiota composition and metabolism of the fish. However, the addition of the probiotics effectively attenuated these adverse effects. This study provides novel evidence for the potential application of probiotics in reducing the health risks of GLY in aquatic environments.

Summary: This study investigated the seasonal changes in metabolic profile and energy allocation patterns in female goldfish liver using a LC-MS-based metabolomics approach. The results revealed significant changes in basal and GnRH/GnIH-induced hepatic metabolic profile, indicating the regulation of metabolic energy allocation to support gonadal development and growth at different reproductive cycles.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the biofloc system can effectively improve the growth and survival rate of goldfish larvae. A higher density of Artemia nauplii supply benefits the growth of goldfish larvae, while the concentration of total suspended solids has little impact on animal growth performance. Lower stocking density can result in optimal growth results.

Summary: The study shows that dietary supplementation of hydroxyproline (Hyp) can significantly improve the growth performance, collagen synthesis, and muscle textural characteristics of improved triploid crucian carp. Moreover, it also enhances muscle growth. The recommended level of Hyp supplementation in the diet for the fish is 0.74%, which is equivalent to 2.2% of dietary protein.

Summary: The study examined local mucosal immune responses and associated humoral system responses following immersion vaccination in Crucian carp and Grouper. Results showed that mucosal antibody response preceded the serum response and IgM and MHC II mRNA levels were relatively greater for systemic immunity. Additionally, IgM and MHC II mRNA levels were altered over time following vaccination, indicating a close relationship among different immunized organs.

Summary: The study found that moderate level of dietary FPM significantly enhanced growth performance, antioxidant capacity, digestive enzyme activities, and the expression of TOR signaling pathway genes of juvenile gibel carp. Dietary supplementation of 5% FPM is recommended for the juveniles based on the performance of growth and antioxidant properties.

Summary: The consumption of tartrazine (TZ) may lead to severe histopathological and cellular alterations in the intestine and liver of crucian carp, affecting the community structure of intestinal microbiota and causing changes in immune and antioxidant responses. Therefore, it is essential for aquaculture to be aware of the harmful effects of TZ and focus on using natural substitutes.

Summary: Estrogen receptors play important roles in gonadal development in turtles. Ps-Esr1 and Ps-Esr2 were identified and characterized in Chinese soft-shelled turtle, and their functions in gonads were investigated. The results showed that Ps-Esr1 might play a crucial role in gonadal differentiation, and the two receptors could be involved in turtle spermatogenesis.
