Yeast extract (YE) can serve as a viable substitute for conventional protein sources to fishmeal (FM), and as a functional feed ingredient or additive. This study aimed to investigate its effects on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, non-specific immunity, protein metabolism, and the microstructural development of tissues in mud crab ( Scylla paramamosain ). Total of 144 juvenile crabs (av…

Sarafloxacin was orally administered to healthy Yellow River carp ( Cyprinus carpio haematopterus ) maintained at 24 ± 0.5 ℃, at a dose of 20 mg/kg body weight (BW) once daily for six consecutive days. Plasma and tissue samples—including skin + muscle, liver, kidney, gill, intestine, and bile—were collected at 3, 6, and 12 h, and at 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, and 15 days following the last administratio…

Earthworms and mealworms are widely used as the primary biological feeds of Quasipaa spinosa . In the present study, a controlled feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of three different biological feed types—earthworm feed (EF), mealworm feed (TM), and mixed feed (MIX)—on the growth performance, antioxidant enzyme activity, digestive enzyme activity, and gut microbial diversity of …

A founder stock for creating synthetic population of common carp ( Cyprinus carpio ) was generated using a 3 × 3 diallel cross (Central India-CI, South and North East India-SI, and North India-NI) in a selective breeding program of common carp for inland saline aquaculture in India. Geographical stocks belonging to various locations were assembled at the CIFE Rohtak Centre. About 328 families (9 …

Warm season mortality, currently referred to as Sudden Unusual Mortality Syndrome (SUMS), has impacted the expansion of oyster aquaculture across the southeastern United States. This phenomenon can occur on the order of weeks and lacks an association with commonly recognized causes of farmed oyster mortality. Although prior work has identified consistent pathology associated with these events, th…
