An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary lipid sources on growth performance, fatty acid composition, rate-limiting enzyme activities and gene expression related to lipid metabolism in large yellow croaker (Larmichthys crocea). Five iso-nitrogenous and iso-lipidic experimental diets were formulated to contain different lipid sources, such as fish oil (FO), soybea...

As a wild resource, the large yellow croaker Larimichthys crocea has been seriously threatened since mid-1980s. Owing to implementation of protection measures, such as establishment zone, fishing prohibitions, restocking programs and successful mariculture, its resources have gradually recovered year by year. Limited low spatial resolution incomplete coverage sampling stations, genetic structur...

The overuse of antibiotics leads to the emergence bacterial resistance, which poses a serious threat aquaculture. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) display excellent antimicrobial activity and are thought be most feasible replacements for antibiotics. usage AMPs as feed additives has great application prospects in In this study, large yellow croaker interferon-γ related gene (IFNG1R) was cloned, 17...

Abstract Objectives Parvalbumin (PV) is the primary allergen found in fish and highly conserved. According to some studies, patients with allergy are allergic only one species of but tolerant others; however, underlying mechanism has not been identified. Materials Methods The cross-reactivity these seven parvalbumins based on turbot PV-treated mice was determined using BALB/c mouse RBL-2H3 cell...
