An investigation was carried out at 10 stations in Kerian, Perak and Seberang Perai Selatan, Penang. Seawater samples were collected to identify microalgae species and determination of dissolved inorganic nutrients. The physical parameters of water such as salinity, pH, temperature and dissolved oxygen were measured in situ while the dissolved inorganic nutrients were analysed spectrophotometrically. The dominant microalga was identified as Margalefidinium fulvescens (Iwataki, Kawami & Matsuoka) Gómez, Richlen & Anderson, 2017, based on the morphological and molecular characterisation of the large subunit ribosomal gene. Long rounded and ellipsoidal cells, 30-43 µm in length, appeared in chains of single, two, four or eight cells. The sulcus was slightly narrow surrounding the cell about one turn, but the cingulum was rather deep, encircling the cell approximately twice, and the chloroplasts were brownish, granular and scattered peripherally. The highest M. fulvescens cell counts were recorded at 6.22 × 105 cells L-1 and 4.61 × 105 cells L−1 in Kerian, Perak and Seberang Perai Selatan, Penang, respectively. The physical parameters of the seawater from the affected sites were within the Malaysian Marine Water Quality Standard (MMWQS) for aquaculture. However, slightly higher levels of nitrate, phosphate and ammonia were noted at several stations. Although the exact cause of the bloom was undecided, it could be due to nutrient discharge along the coasts, which also concurred with the transition phase of the northeast to the southwest monsoon.","PeriodicalId":37296,"journal":{"name":"Asian Fisheries Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48917855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 887 fish species were found contaminated with MPs based on MPs in the gastrointestinal tract/GI. The most MPs contaminated-fish species found were marine and demersal species. Globally 45 % of fish ingested MPs with an average concentration of 5.93 MPs particles per fish species. Among all the countries, China had the highest number of fish species contaminated with MPs in the followingorders: China (176 species), Brazil (84), the USA (48), India (35), the Atlantic Ocean (31), Iran (30), Bangladesh (28), Turkey (26), Indonesia (25), the UK (23), Saudi Arabia (23), Thailand (21), Portugal (20), Australia (20), Italy (18), South Africa (18), Argentina (15), Chile (14), Galapagos Islands (Ecuador) (14), the North Pacific Gyre (14), Samoa (13), Malaysia (12), Colombia (11), New Zealand (11), Fiji (10), Spain (10), the North Sea (09), South Korea (09), Tahiti (09), Vanuatu (09), Ghana (08), Canada (07), Japan (07) and Nigeria (07) and others. MPs ingestion in fishes varied (high, medium, and low) among the locations/countries. In several locations/countries, MPs ingestion/contamination occurred in up to 100 % of fish samples. Because of MPs contamination, seafood fisheries, and the livelihoods of people associated with fishing, aquaculture, and seafood business, can be threatened. It may also increase health risks to seafood fish consumers since there is a probability that high risks pollutants adsorbed in MPs can be transferred to humans via the food chain.","PeriodicalId":37296,"journal":{"name":"Asian Fisheries Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43637075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ninety mature male North African catfish were divided into six groups (in three replicates); Group 1 & Group 4 fed basal diet (control), Group 2 & Group 5 diets supplemented with 3 % purslane, Portulaca oleracea Linnaeus, 1753 powder, and Group 3 & Group 6 diets supplemented with 5 % purslane powder. Group 4, Group 5, and Group 6 were exposed to 50 µg.L-1 BPA for 14 days. Group 4 showed a significant increase in the luteinising hormone, 17β estradiol, and malondialdehyde levels, with a decrease in the testosterone, superoxide dismutase, and catalase concentrations. Simultaneously, there were elevated liver and kidney markers with severe degenerative changes in the testes, liver, and kidney. Dietary supplementation of purslane powder returned the measured parameters to their normal values with the correction of the tissue architectures and details. Interestingly, purslane in the non-BPA treated groups raised the testosterone and 17β estradiol over the control values. It is suggested that purslane could be used in aquaculture and cultivated near polluted water areas.","PeriodicalId":37296,"journal":{"name":"Asian Fisheries Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45354214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the 43 plants screened, eight plant extracts (Bouea oppositifolia, Wedelia chinensis, Terminalia catappa, Punica granatum, Sonneratia caseolaris, Sonneratia ovata, Ludwigia hyssopifolia and Phyllanthus urinaria) exhibited wide-spectrum antibacterial activity to all three common freshwater fish pathogens.

Specimens were collected from local markets and fishers, including An Giang (n = 36) and Can Tho (n = 36) in the Hau River and Tien Giang (n = 30) in the Tien River for morphological measurements and DNA barcoding analysis. Eight mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences of Phalacronotus sp. shared 99.6 ± 0.23 % similarity with five GenBank (GB) P. bleekeri sequences and differed by 7.6 % to 13.3 % from seven GB P. apogon sequences. The Vietnamese specimens of Phalacronotus were similar to P. bleekeri in number of anal fin rays (75–80) and the shape of the upper jaw teeth. Thus, the COI sequences and these morphological characteristics indicate that Phalacronotus sp. samples collected in the Mekong Delta are Phalacronotus bleekeri (Günther, 1864). Morphometric characteristics differed between populations in 15 of 19 indices (P < 0.05) and between females and males in three characteristics relating to the belly. Head characteristics, body depth, and caudal peduncle depth were the main parameters contributing to the inter-population variation. Based on size-adjusted data, 96.7 % of specimens were correctly classified from the Tien Giang population, while 27.8 % and 33.3 % were misclassified between the Can Tho and An Giang populations, respectively.

Also, in-vitro antibacterial activities of extracts from two local plants against several antibiotic-resistant A. hydrophila strains were done to screen for potential bio-antibiotic materials. The antibiotic susceptibility results showed that 25 % of bacterial strains were resistant to 3–9 antibiotics, 35 % to 2 antibiotics, and 10 % to one antibiotic.

Furthermore, the R. tomentosa extract and the fermented A. sativum supernatant exhibited significant antibacterial effects to several A. hydrophila strains, namely A. hydrophila CEDMA17.021, CEDMA17.002, CEDMA17.008, and CEDMA17.009 resistant to two or more antibiotics. This study demonstrated multiple resistant profiles of A. hydrophila strains to different antibiotics and the inhibitory activities of R. tomentosa extract and the fermented A. sativum supernatant against antibiotic-resistant A. hydrophila strains.

Water parameters were recorded from three 300 m2 biofloc ponds stocked with Penaeus vannamei Boone, 1931, at 500 individuals.m-3 over four culture run periods. Each culture run lasted for 16 weeks. Imputed data were initially subjected to univariate analysis and Pearson’s correlation analysis. The abundance of presumptive Vibrio species was found to be highly correlated with alkalinity, pH, and phytoplankton density. GAM performed best among the three models based on Akaike’s information criterion (AIC), having the smallest value of 5,743.222 compared to 6,572.014 and 5,857.997 values for ordinary LRM and NBM, respectively. It also had the largest deviance explained statistic with 41.2 % of the deviance reduced by including the predictors compared with ordinary LRM and NBM with only 16.04 % and 14.5 % deviance reduced, respectively.

Thirty fish from each cross were challenged with A. hydrophila. The results showed that innate immune responses of domesticated CT strains were higher than wild strains (HG and CM). Higher values of white blood cells, phagocytic activity, and lysozyme activity were observed in CT × CT and CT × CM crosses. These crosses had significantly lower cortisol levels and lower mortality rates of 40 % (CT × CT) and 43.3 % (CT × CM) after being challenged with A. hydrophila compared to the other crosses.
