Abstract
With the development of large-scale intensive feeding, growth performance and animal welfare have attracted more and more attention. Exogenous probiotics can promote the growth performance of fish through improving intestinal microbiota; however, it remains unclear whether intestinal microbiota influence physiological biomarkers. Therefore, we performed metagenomic and metabolomic analysis to investigate the effects of a 90-day Lactiplantibacillus plantarum supplementation to a basal diet (1.0 × 108 CFU/g) on the growth performance, intestinal microbiota and their metabolites, and physiological biomarkers in Coilia nasus larvae. The results showed that the probiotic supplementation could significantly increase weight and body length. Moreover, it could also enhance digestive enzymes and tight junctions, and inhibit oxidative stress and inflammation. The metagenomic analysis showed that L. plantarum supplementation could significantly decrease the relative abundance of Proteobacteria and increase the relative abundance of Firmicutes. Additionally, pathogenic bacteria (Aeromonadaceae, Aeromonas, and Enterobacterales) were inhibited and beneficial bacteria (Bacillales) were promoted. The metabolome analysis showed that acetic acid and propanoic acid were significantly elevated, and were associated with Kitasatospora, Seonamhaeicola, and Thauera. A correlation analysis demonstrated that the digestive enzymes, tight junction, oxidative stress, and inflammation effects were significantly associated with the increased acetic acid and propanoic acid levels. These results indicated that L. plantarum supplementation could improve intestinal microbial community structure and function, which could raise acetic acid and propanoic acid levels to protect intestinal health and improve growth performance in C. nasus larvae.
期刊介绍:
Comparative Biochemistry & Physiology (CBP) publishes papers in comparative, environmental and evolutionary physiology.
Part D: Genomics and Proteomics (CBPD), focuses on “omics” approaches to physiology, including comparative and functional genomics, metagenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics. Most studies employ “omics” and/or system biology to test specific hypotheses about molecular and biochemical mechanisms underlying physiological responses to the environment. We encourage papers that address fundamental questions in comparative physiology and biochemistry rather than studies with a focus that is purely technical, methodological or descriptive in nature.
