Name of the Sequence. Red seabream β-actin cDNA. Genus and Species. Pagrus major. Origin of Clone. Total RNA was isolated from ovary of red seabream. Poly(A)+ RNA was purified using an Oligotex-dT30 (Super) mRNA purification kit (Takara, Japan). Double-stranded complementary DNA synthesis was carried out using a TimeSaver cDNA synthesis kit (Pharmacia Biotech, Uppsala, Sweden). The cDNA library...

Adaptive Optimization Hyperparameter tuning is a big cost of deep learning. Momentum: a key hyperparameter to SGD and variants. Adaptive methods, e.g. Adam1, don’t tune momentum. YellowFin optimizer • Based on the robustness properties of momentum. • Auto-tuning of momentum and learning rate in SGD. • Closed-loop momentum control for async. training. Experiments ResNet and LSTM YellowFin runs w...

Yellowfin tuna, an important component of tuna fisheries throughout the WCPO, are harvested with a diverse variety of gear types, from small-scale artisanal fisheries in Pacific Island and southeast Asian waters to large, distant-water longliners and purse seiners that operate widely in equatorial and tropical waters. Purse seiners catch a wide size range of yellowfin tuna, whereas the longline...

Bile salts present in gallbladder of wild and cultured red seabream, Pagrosomus major, a marine teleost were analyzed. The bile from wild red seabream was found to contain two previously unknown bile salts along with two known bile salts, taurocholate and taurochenodeoxycholate. Isolation of each bile salt was performed by column chromatography. Fast atom bombardment mass spectra of the unknown...

Recent studies have indicated that ghrelin stimulates growth hormone release from the pituitary via the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). We have previously isolated two GHSR subtypes from the pituitary of the black seabream Acanthopagrus schlegeli. In the present study, we have cloned and characterized ghrelin from the same fish species at both the cDNA and gene levels. The full-len...

The purpose of this project is to examine the potential of using tuna hard parts as natural markers to refine our understanding of population structure of tropical tuna. Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) were selected for study as tagging data and recent studies suggest that the movement patterns of yellowfin may be highly variable and more restricted than other tunas. Hawaiian yellowfin provi...

feeding habits of yellowfin seabream, acanthopagrus latus was investigated in coastal waters of the northern persian gulf. this investigation was conducted by monthly sampling of thirty fish from september 2011 through august 2012. fish size ranged from 17.98 ± 2.07 to 32.31 ± 6.52 cm in total length and from 134.01 ± 45.62 to 720.46 ± 292.58 g in weight. the highest value of gastro-somatic ind...

The ontogeny of the alimentary tract and its associated structures (liver, pancreas, gall bladder) was compared between sharpsnout sea bream Diplodus puntazzo and Pagellus erythrinus and some differences were highlighted. The first goblet cells appeared earlier in sharpsnout seabream (5-7 DAH) and later in common pandora (9-11 DAH), as well as taste buds which appeared at 11 DAH in sharpsnout s...
