Application of zebrafish in the study of the gut microbiome

Xiaoting Zhong et al.

Summary: Zebrafish have been widely used as a model for gut microbiome research due to their low cost, strong genetic and development coherence. They have advantages in studying microbiome-host interactions and evaluating the toxicity of environmental pollutants. Furthermore, zebrafish can be applied for toxicological assessment and exploring molecular mechanisms of pathogen infections.

Impact of early-life rearing history on gut microbiome succession and performance of Nile tilapia

Yale Deng et al.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of early microbial colonisation on the gut microbiome and growth of Nile tilapia. Results showed that larvae cultured in biofloc system (BFS) exhibited better growth and different gut microbiome compared to flow-through system (FTS). Despite initial differences, long-term effects on gut microbiome composition, nutrient digestibility, and growth performance in later life were not observed, indicating that the legacy effect gradually disappeared during host development. However, BFS-reared fish exhibited increased gut microbial interactions, potentially benefiting gut health in juvenile Nile tilapia.
