In this study, we utilized the YOLOv5 convolutional neural network target detection model to develop a fish jumping behavior (FJB) recognition model. A dataset comprising 877 images of fish jumping, captured via a camera in a reservoir, was assembled for model training and validation. After training and validating the model, its recognition accuracy was further tested in real aquatic environments. The results show that YOLOv5 outperforms YOLOv7, YOLOv8, and YOLOv9 in detecting splashes. Post 50 training epochs, YOLOv5 achieved over 97 % precision and recall in the validation set, with an F1 score exceeding 0.9. Furthermore, an enhanced YOLOv5-SN model was devised by integrating specific rules related to ripple size variation and duration, attributable to fish jumping. This modification significantly mitigates noise interference in the detection process. The model's robustness against weather variations ensures reliable detection of fish jumping behavior under diverse meteorological conditions, including rain, cloudiness, and sunshine. Different meteorological elements exert varying effects on fish jumping behavior.

To further understand the adaptation mechanism of L. <em>vannamei</em> to ammonia, this study explored the effects of ammonia exposure and recovery on histopathology, physiological indicators, and transcriptomic responses. In the ammonia exposure (NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>-N 25 mg/L) and recovery experiment, shrimp were sampled at 0 h, 24 h, 48 h of exposure, and 24 h, 48 h of recovery. The results showed that histopathological damage to the hepatopancreas and gills caused by short-term ammonia exposure could be alleviated after recovery. Ammonia exposure inhibited superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities, decreased total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), and increased malondialdehyde (MDA) in shrimp. Restoration of the antioxidant system after exposure mitigated oxidative damage and reduced MDA levels. The inhibition of acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (AKP) activities in shrimp caused by ammonia exposure was reversible. Ammonia excretion and metabolism attenuate ammonia toxicity and promote recovery in L. <em>vannamei</em>. Transcriptome analysis identified 1690, 1568, and 1463 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the hepatopancreas at 48 h of stress, 24 h, and 48 h of recovery, respectively. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that ammonia exposure induced oxidative damage, resulting in apoptosis. Furthermore, activation of antioxidant-related pathways, such as glutathione metabolism and peroxisomes, helped reduce oxidative damage during the post-exposure recovery period. The addition of exogenous spermine and spermidine may contribute to post-exposure recovery and enhance ammonia acclimation in L. <em>vannamei</em>. Differential expression of the inflammatory gene <em>STEAP4</em> in the ammonia stress and recovery phases, as screened by transcriptome analysis, may play a positive role in post-stress recovery. This study demonstrated the reversibility of the toxic effects of ammonia exposure on L. <em>vannamei</em>, complemented the knowledge of the mechanisms of adaptation of shrimp under ammonia exposure, and provided a basis for subsequent ammonia tolerance studies in crustaceans.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":248,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Toxicology","volume":"277 ","pages":"Article 107133"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142578393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
