Companies show consumers their environmental commitment and sustainability through certifications and sustainability labels. The present study aims to: (i) evaluate the presence of sustainability labels on the aquaculture and wild-caught fish products commercialised in Spain; (ii) study consumers' knowledge of sustainability seals; (iii) analyse the main aspects that affect the purchase decisions of sustainable food products. The supply of fish and fishery products was determined by market research. A consumer opinion survey was performed to assess labelling relevance, knowledge about sustainability labels and purchasing preferences. In Spain, sustainability labels appear on more than one third of fish products, with large differences found between different retailers. More than half of the products sold in German discount stores featured some sustainability label, a figure three times higher than the rate of products found in the Spanish supermarkets. The consumer survey showed that most Spanish consumers do not regularly check labelling information related to the environment and animal welfare, and they are largely unaware of the meaning of sustainability labels. Nonetheless, the conjoint analysis showed that the presence of sustainability seals enhances fish product purchases, especially for aquaculture products. These results demonstrate that marine sustainability seals and certifications can be used by the fish industry to increase purchase intention and to revalorise their products. However, informing consumers about the meaning and importance of these certifications is still necessary.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8375,"journal":{"name":"Aquaculture","volume":"610 ","pages":"Article 742926"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2026-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144579903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

OA significantly enhances carbon ingestion, reduces respiratory carbon, increases carbon allocation to growth, improves digestive efficiency, and promotes TOC accumulation in soft tissues (all <em>p</em> &lt; 0.05).

Tissue-specific metabolic responses reveal that muscle tissue prioritizes energy production, whereas the digestive gland follows an opposite trend, resulting in uneven energy distribution.

While multi-object tracking (MOT) algorithms have become effective for fry behavior analysis, they often struggle with occlusions, rapid movements, and maintaining consistent identities due to the small size and similar appearance of fry. To address these limitations, we propose an innovative method that combines detection, segmentation, and multi-object tracking. Our approach utilizes an improved YOLOv8-seg algorithm for detection and segmentation, enhanced with the STA attention mechanism, CFP centralized feature pyramid, and GSConv lightweight convolution technology. We augment Deep OC-SORT with a novel Segmentation-Enhanced Trajectory Interpolation method for multi-object tracking. This method incorporates mask-guided centroid interpolation, contour interpolation, and occlusion-aware adjustment, significantly improving tracking consistency during occlusions and rapid movements. The experimental results demonstrate that the improved YOLOv8-seg algorithm achieved detection accuracy on par with the original model while improving speed by 10 % and attained a mean average precision (mAP) of 94.3 % in fry segmentation, surpassing the original YOLOv8 algorithm by 1.8 %. The enhanced Deep OC-SORT tracking method attained 74.3 % MOTA with significantly reduced ID switches, outperforming common SOTA tracking algorithms (e.g., Deep SORT, OC-SORT, ByteTrack) and ensuring reliable individual fry tracking over time. In addition, we conducted a temperature control experiment studying the behavioral responses of <em>Micropterus salmoides</em> fry under different temperature conditions, providing a robust foundation for improved aquaculture management strategies.

In this study, we systematically investigated the effects of hypoxia and reoxygenation on <em>Acipenser dabryanus</em> using histological, ultrastructural, biochemical, and multi-omic analyses. Histological studies showed that the skin and muscle were damaged to different degrees after hypoxia and that the tissue structure returned to normal after reoxygenation. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy revealed that the morphology of mitochondria-rich and pavement cells in the gills of the hypoxic group was significantly altered and damaged. The activities of serum superoxide dismutase and liver lactate dehydrogenase increased after hypoxia. Transcriptome sequencing of the liver and gills identified numerous differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the hypoxia and control groups, whereas the number of DEGs in the reoxygenation versus control group was significantly reduced. DEGs enriched in cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions, the PI3K-Akt signalling pathway, the HIF-1 signalling pathway, and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis may play important roles in the response to hypoxic stress. Differentially expressed metabolites and proteins screened by metabolomics and proteomics confirmed the transcriptomic results. The combined analysis of multi-omics showed that glycolysis/gluconeogenesis metabolism was upregulated after hypoxia to increase glucose production to obtain more energy under hypoxic environment.

However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes and their interactions remain insufficiently understood, particularly regarding their molecular interactions. In this study, we integrated physiological, histological, metabolomic, and transcriptomic approaches to reveal the molecular responses of the cold-sensitive <em>Pangasianodon hypophthalmus</em> (13.52 ± 1.54 g) to programmed cooling (25 °C, 20 °C, 15 °C). Our results demonstrate that cold stress induces energy stress, cholesterol metabolism disorder, and apoptosis in <em>P. hypophthalmus</em>. Specifically, it manifests as increased serum antioxidant activity, decreased cholesterol levels, tissue damage in the gills, liver, and muscle accompanied by elevated apoptotic signals, ultrastructural damage to hepatic mitochondria, and a significant reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential. Integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis identified AMPK, PPAR, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, cholesterol metabolism, primary bile acid biosynthesis, bile secretion, and intrinsic mitochondrial apoptosis pathways as key pathways of energy metabolism, cholesterol metabolism, and apoptosis under cold stress. Inhibition of AMPK and PPAR signaling pathways, along with disrupted cholesterol metabolism, represents a major factor contributing to cold stress intolerance in <em>P. hypophthalmus</em>. Inhibition of cholesterol synthesis during cold stress, likely through suppression of the <em>hmgcr</em>, was central to cholesterol metabolic disturbances. Under cold stress, concurrent inhibition of PI3K/AKT/mTOR, cholesterol metabolism, bile acid biosynthesis, and bile secretion pathways reshaped energy metabolism to accommodate increased energy demands. When the AMPK pathway is inhibited, <em>p53</em> may also function to suppress biosynthetic processes, thereby maintaining a specific metabolic state under cold stress. The results of qPCR and Western blot further support the reliability of our conclusions.

Particularly if farmers seek to remove portions of the biomass at a time without lifting cages to the surface. Using salmon innate swimming behaviours may aid to develop innovative, simple, welfare-friendly removal methods. Here we investigate whether the direction of crowding in a submerged cage influences the exit behaviour of salmon when extracted at depth for the purpose of pumping to a well-boat or otherwise. Using replicates of 46 large (∼4.3 kg) or 128 small (∼1.3 kg) Atlantic salmon and a prototype submerged cube cage (27 m³) fitted with a movable wall, we test to see if crowding salmon towards a 50 cm diameter circular opening in either the top, side, or bottom of the cage influences fish exit rate. Our results show that when crowding fish by incrementally reducing the cage volume by a factor of 12 over 25 mins, for both fish sizes ∼80 % of fish exited the cage via sideways crowding, whereas only 20 to 50 % exited by top up or bottom down crowding directions. Furthermore, maximum relative fish densities reached during crowding tests were almost halved for sidewards crowding (37–43 kg m⁻³) compared to downwards or upwards crowding directions (59–73 kg m⁻³). We conclude that fish visualization of the exit hole and their natural circular swimming behaviour favoured sideways extraction.
