Evaluating the sustainability of fisheries requires methods to measure performance from ecological, economic, social, and governance aspects. Whereas a number of multi-dimensional evaluation tools such as fishery performance indicators (FPIs) have been used for assessing fishery management systems, fishery management practices and data availability are likely to differ substantially among fisheries in different countries. This makes it at least somewhat problematic to precisely adapt this methodology to fisheries within a given country. This study constructed a practical tool to evaluate and compare fishery systems in China. On the basis of an established indicator library and the FPIs tool, indicators in the newly developed tool for comprehensive fisheries evaluation were selected according to the management objectives, data availability, and the authority of relevant indicators. The sustainability assessment tool for Chinese fisheries (SAT-fish) provides a three-tier hierarchical framework covering 60 indicators, of which 48 indicators were extracted from the FPIs tool and 12 indicators were associated with policy statements. Applicability and comprehensiveness of this tool in comparison with six other well-established frameworks were investigated. This tool offers a promising new method to assess the sustainability of fishery systems in China, with great potential to guide Chinese fisheries towards a higher level of sustainability.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s42995-024-00251-z.</p>","PeriodicalId":53218,"journal":{"name":"Marine Life Science & Technology","volume":"6 4","pages":"713-721"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11602921/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142774803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The genetic analysis of complex traits in GS does not escape the current excitement around artificial intelligence, including a renewed interest in deep learning (DL), such as deep neural networks (DNNs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and autoencoders. This article reviews the current status and potential of DL applications in phenotyping, genotyping and genomic estimated breeding value (GEBV) prediction of GS. It can be seen from this article that CNNs obtain phenotype data of aquatic animals efficiently, and without injury; DNNs as single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variant callers are critical to have shown higher accuracy in assessments of genotyping for the next-generation sequencing (NGS); autoencoder-based genotype imputation approaches are capable of highly accurate genotype imputation by encoding complex genotype relationships in easily portable inference models; sparse DNNs capture nonlinear relationships among genes to improve the accuracy of GEBV prediction for aquatic animals. Furthermore, future directions of DL in aquaculture are also discussed, which should expand the application to more aquaculture species. We believe that DL will be applied increasingly to molecular breeding of aquatic animals in the future.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s42995-024-00252-y.</p>","PeriodicalId":53218,"journal":{"name":"Marine Life Science & Technology","volume":"6 4","pages":"631-650"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11602929/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142774801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, a new strongylidiid genus <i>Heterouroleptus</i> is established, mainly based on the novel mode of origin of the ventral cirral rows: left ventral cirral row (LVR) originates from frontal-ventral-transverse cirral anlagen (FVTA) III (anterior portion), IV (middle portion), and V (rear portion); right ventral cirral row comes from the entire FVTA VI. A new species, <i>Heterouroleptus weishanensis</i> gen. nov., sp. nov., is investigated along with the morphometric and molecular data from a population of <i>Strongylidium wuhanense</i>. Eight new sequences and nuclear gene markers (single-gene and multi-gene) are provided to analyze the phylogenetic relationships of strongylidiids, with the COI gene utilized to uncover further genetic information at species level and below. The results reveal that: (1) Strongylidiidae is monophyletic and has a close relationship with Dorsomarginalia; (2) <i>Heterouroleptus</i> gen. nov. forms a clade that is sister to all the other strongylidiids; (3) <i>Hemiamphisiella</i> Foissner, 1988 and <i>Pseudouroleptus</i> Hemberger, 1985 should not be synonyms, and both genera should be subdivided due to their variable morphological characteristics; (4) LVR originating from three anlagen is a plesiomorphy of Strongylidiidae.

Bacterioplankton can be broadly classified into two lifestyles: free-living (FL) and particle-attached (PA). However, how coastal bacterioplankton the community structure, co-occurrence networks and carbon metabolic functions with different lifestyles are differentiated is still largely unknown. Understanding these processes is necessary to better determine the contributions of coastal bacterioplankton to carbon cycling. Here, the characteristics of community structure and carbon metabolism function of bacterioplankton with two lifestyles in the coastal areas of Guangdong Province were investigated using amplicon sequencing, metagenomic, and metatranscriptomic techniques. The results show that the main bacterioplankton responsible for carbon metabolism were the <i>Pseudomonadota</i>, <i>Bacteroidota</i>, and <i>Actinomycetota</i>. The microbial community structure, carbon metabolic function, and environmental preferences differ between different lifestyles. FL and PA bacteria exhibited higher carbon fixation and degradation potentials, respectively. A range of environmental factors, such as dissolved oxygen, pH, and temperature, were associated with the community structure and carbon metabolic functions of the bacterioplankton. Human activities, such as nutrient discharge, may affect the distribution of functional genes and enhance the carbon degradation functions of bacterioplankton.
