Summary: This study characterized the lmnb2 gene from L. calcarifer and identified a SNP associated with SGIV resistance. The gene was found to be involved in cell proliferation, migration, and the replication of SGIV in Asian seabass cells. The findings shed light on the function of Lcalmnb2 in resisting SGIV infection and suggest the potential use of the identified SNP as a DNA marker in breeding programs.

Summary: The optimal mixed feeding schedule of alternating between high and low protein diets was investigated in Asian seabass. The study found that alternating between high and low protein diets improved growth performance and feed utilization in the fish. Among the tested feeding regimens, the 2 H/1 L schedule was the most profitable.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the adaptation of Asian sea bass to increased ammonia content in fish tanks with different populations. The results showed that overcrowding fish in a tank and increasing ammonia levels led to a decrease in production efficiency. The Asian sea bass activates the urea cycle in the liver to convert ammonia into urea as a way to cope with high ammonia levels.

Summary: The study reveals that short-term ocean acidification does not have significant effects on growth and behavior of Asian seabass juveniles, but leads to substantial changes in gene expressions in brain, gill, and kidney tissues, including processes related to organ development, muscle development, ion homeostasis, and neurogenesis. This suggests that ocean acidification may adversely affect neural regulatory mechanisms in marine fish species.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of dietary refined glycerol inclusion rate on growth performance, nitrogen and energy balances, and fish quality of juvenile European seabass. The results showed that the group fed with 25 g/kg refined glycerol had higher feed intake and weight gain compared to the other two groups. However, feed efficiency and protein utilization efficiency were similar among the three groups. The inclusion of refined glycerol increased hepato-somatic and visceral lipid-somatic indices, but did not affect proximal body composition. Additionally, fish quality decreased with storage time, but was not influenced by the dietary glycerol inclusion rate.

Summary: In diets with varying levels of lipids and omega-3, higher lipid and omega-3 content contributed to increased weight and growth in Atlantic salmon postsmolts. Hypoxia was shown to reduce growth in the fish, but high lipid diets improved protein and energy retention, as well as lipid and LC-PUFA digestibility. High omega-3 diets also improved LC-PUFA retention and digestibility, indicating the importance of energy intake under hypoxic conditions in nutritional responses.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of different levels of EPA and DHA on the hepatic metabolic health of Atlantic salmon reared in sea cages. The results showed that feeding low levels of EPA+DHA altered hepatic energy metabolism, resulting in reduced beta-oxidation and compensated by increased activity in alternative energy pathways. Increased acylcarnitines in the liver indicated issues with lipid metabolism. Fish fed higher levels of EPA+DHA showed improved growth compared to other groups.

Summary: This study investigated the growth and feed utilization efficiency of redclaw crayfish fed with different experimental diets. The results showed no significant differences among diets in terms of growth and feed utilization efficiency. Redclaw crayfish performed well with FM-free vegetable diets and poultry by-product meal-based diets. The essential amino acids lysine, arginine, and leucine were found to be the most important in the muscle of redclaw crayfish.

Summary: Substantial progress has been made in improving aquaculture feeds and feeding technologies over the past 20 years. The feed conversion efficiency and ingredient sustainability have improved significantly. However, there is still a need to define the requirements, especially for species farmed in the developing world. Precision nutrition approach and diversification of ingredient options are essential for sustainable aquaculture. The use of automated feeding systems is increasing in advanced aquaculture systems, while manual labor is still prevalent in the developing world.

Summary: This study investigated the transfer of fatty acids from broodstock diets to eggs and the time needed for the eggs to equilibrate to the diet in Southern flounder. The findings indicate that different diet treatments significantly affect the fatty acid composition of eggs, and it takes 8-16 weeks for the eggs to adapt to changes in the adult diet. These results are important for improving broodstock diets and feeding protocols in stock-enhancement programs.
