Effects of the Clostridium butyricum on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immunity and disease resistance of Litopenaeus Vannamei fed with cottonseed protein concentrate (CPC) replacement of fishmeal in diet

Weikang Li et al.

Summary: In this study, an 8-week feeding trial and challenge experiment were conducted to investigate the effects of different concentrations of CB on the growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immunity, and resistance to Vibrio parahaemolyticus in Litopenaeus vannamei. The results showed that the supplementation of CB at appropriate levels significantly enhanced the antioxidant capacity, immunity, and disease resistance of shrimp, while improving their growth performance.

Functionality and prophylactic role of probiotics in shellfish aquaculture

Tofael Ahmed Sumon et al.

Summary: Intensification of aquaculture has led to frequent disease outbreaks, with antibiotics being a commonly used control strategy posing risks to the environment and humans. In recent years, probiotics have emerged as a viable alternative in shellfish aquaculture, showing benefits in increasing production, reducing disease incidence, and providing prophylactic activity against viral diseases.

Molecular characterization and expression dynamics of three key genes in the PI3K-AKT pathway reveal its involvement in the immunotoxicological responses of the giant river prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii to acute ammonia and nitrite stress

Tingting Zhou et al.

Summary: This study identified three key genes in the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway from the giant river prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, and found that these genes exhibited diverse expression patterns in response to nitrite and ammonia stresses. The study highlights the potential utility of these genes as biomarkers for acute ammonia or nitrite toxicity in prawns, and provides evidence for the involvement of the PI3K-AKT pathway in the immunotoxicological responses to nitrite and ammonia stress in M. rosenbergii.

Probiotic supplementations improve growth, water quality, hematology, gut microbiota and intestinal morphology of Nile tilapia

Tamanna Tabassum et al.

Summary: The study found that probiotic supplementation significantly improved water quality, growth performance, feed utilization, hematological parameters, gut microbial load, and intestinal morphology of Nile tilapia. Specifically, supplementation of gut probiotic and a combination of soil, gut, and water probiotics enhanced growth performance and feed utilization, as well as improved gut microbiota and intestinal morphology.
