Research on co-feeding for ornamental fish at the juvenile or adult stage needs to be completed. This study implemented a “snacking” feeding strategy using Artemia sp. to evaluate changes in fish survival rate, growth performance, and enzyme activity related to digestion, antioxidants, and immunity in a recirculating aquaculture system. Two feeding strategies were tested: one group was fed a commercial diet plus Artemia sp. (0.1% of diet) as “snacking,” and another group was fed only the commercial diet as normal. “Snacking” with Artemia sp. enhanced fish’s survival and growth performance, with higher relative weight rate, standard length, and total length than the control group. Specific growth rates for weight, standard length, and total length were also more significant in the supplemented group compared to the control group. The activity of amylase, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase was substantially higher in the supplemented group. Adding Artemia sp. as a supplement under a “snacking” feeding strategy to the control diet was beneficial for P. scalare juvenile rearing and can guide managing recirculating farming activities.","PeriodicalId":14704,"journal":{"name":"Israeli Journal of Aquaculture-bamidgeh","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84510141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Five biofloc (BF) treatments, including R90-M10, R70-M30, R50-M50, R30-M70, and R10-M90, formed with the addition of different combination ratios of rice flour and molasses, i.e., 90% R+10% M, 70% R+30% M, 50% R+50% M, 30% R+70% M, and 10% R+90% M, respectively, with C/N ratios of 15:1, and a control (neither rice flour nor molasses applied) was randomly arranged into the 18 plastic tanks of 1.0 m3 volume (with 0.5 m3 of water) each tank and salinity of 15‰. The postlarvae (0.095 g) were stocked into the tanks at a 150 ind. m−3 density and fed pelleted feed (40% protein). There was an improvement in growth (FMW, WG, DWG, and SGR) for all treatments. Besides, treatments with more than or equal to 30% molasses have improved SR, FCR, and FB. Especially the highest SR (94.2%) was obtained at the R70-M30, which perhaps created the highest FB (1.435 kg m−3) in this treatment. The lowest FCR (1.28) was also observed in the R70-M30 and significantly differed from the control and other treatments. Besides, water quality parameters were within the ranges recommended for Pacific white shrimp health during the experimental period. Our findings indicated the benefits of shrimp culture using the BF system when different combined ratios of rice flour and molasses were applied, of which a ratio of 70% rice flour and 30% molasses was considered as the best.","PeriodicalId":14704,"journal":{"name":"Israeli Journal of Aquaculture-bamidgeh","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74276317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Transcriptomes of a wild-type strain (VS) and its quinolone-resistant mutants (VR) of V. harveyi were respectively sequenced by RNA-seq technology. A total of 2,082 unigenes were obtained after de novo splicing and assembly. 129 genes were identified with significant differential expression in strain VR compared to strain VS, among which 65 were up-regulated and 64 down-regulated. Then, functional annotation and enrichment analysis of these differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were performed. GO enrichment results showed that DEGs focused mainly on cell structure, substance metabolism, and transporter. COG classification of the DEGs mainly focused on amino acid transport and metabolism, cell wall/membrane biosynthesis, carbohydrate transport and metabolism, ribosomal structure, and biosynthesis. KEGG pathways related to a two-component system, ABC transport system and flagellar assembly (ko02040) were enriched significantly, and 9 genes associated with quinolone-resistance ability, including genes for resistance-related transport proteins, outer membrane proteins, and DNA repair-related proteins were discovered through analysis of the drug-resistance related genes. Ten DEGs (including the above part genes of 9 drug resistance-related genes) in the transcriptome data were taken to analyze their expression with real-time qPCR. The results were the same as the changes of the above transcriptome analysis, further confirming the reliability of the transcriptome sequencing and data analysis. In a word, genes from a two-component system, flagellar assembly, active efflux system and outer membrane proteins take great roles in the quinolone-resistance of V. harveyi. These results provide enough information for further study on the molecular mechanism of quinolone-resistance and give a helpful transcriptomic resource to unravel the contact between quinolone-resistance and metabolic pathways in Vibrios.","PeriodicalId":14704,"journal":{"name":"Israeli Journal of Aquaculture-bamidgeh","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85818696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Temperature, dissolved oxygen, water quality, nutrition level, pathogen, net fishing, and so on will affect the gut health of aquatic animals. Intestinal diseases in aquatic animals were often not easily detected, making them difficult to prevent and control. Therefore, establishing a stable and scientific evaluation standard of gut health was of great significance. This study evaluated the effects of gross pathological and histological parameters of largemouth bass and channel catfish infected by Aeromonas hydrophila. A total of 150 largemouth bass and 150 channel catfish were randomly divided into 5 groups: 1 control group (NC) and 4 challenge groups (CH, fish were infected with A. hydrophila by intraperitoneal injection with a concentration of 200 µL 1x108 CFU/mL, 1x107 CFU/mL, 1x106 CFU/mL, and 1x105 CFU/mL, respectively). After the challenge, largemouth bass’ gross pathological and histological changes were observed on the 2nd, 6th, 9th, 12th, and 14th days. In contrast, channel catfish’s gross pathological and histological changes were observed on the 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th, and 15th day. In this study, regarding the “I See Inside” (ISI) methodology of poultry, a pathological evaluation method of fish intestinal health was established to comprehensively evaluate the intestinal health status of fish by gross pathological and histopathological score. In gross pathology, it was scored by the body surface and intestinal lesions. In histology, it was a metric evaluation of histological alterations in the intestine, converting macroscopic and microscopic alterations into numbers and then scoring. Each evaluation parameter sets up an “influence factor” (IF) according to the degree of influence of its pathological changes on intestinal function. The final score was the sum of the IF product and this parameter’s score. The results of two kinds of fish showed that the gross pathological and histopathological scores correlated with the infection dose and time. And the significant difference in the score between the enteritis and control groups was observed. The results showed that the higher score, the more serious the pathological changes of fish infected by A. hydrophlia. From this, it can be concluded that the pathological evaluation method established can be used to evaluate the gut health of fish.","PeriodicalId":14704,"journal":{"name":"Israeli Journal of Aquaculture-bamidgeh","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89639947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The content of proximate composition (moisture, proteins, fat, and ash) of spotted seabass flesh was fell within the range of other reported fish species, while it was a high-quality food fish with low oil-very high protein. The ratio of essential amino acids (EAAs) to nonessential amino acids (NEAAs) was 0.74, and the amount of EAAs accounted for approximately 42.34% of the total amino acids. Unsaturated fatty acids composed the majority of the fatty acid components, with linoleic acid was the predominate one. The content of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) were abundant in spotted seabass flesh. The proximate composition of the dorsal, ventral, lateral, and tail flesh was similar, except for the ventral flesh exhibited a higher content of fatty acids and lower content of moisture.
