Abstract:
... A 12-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacing fish meal by chicken haemoglobin powder in largemouth bass diets. Four isonitrogenous (48%) and isolipidic (12%) diets were formulated to replace 0% (control), 9.80%, 19.61% and 29.41% of fish meal with chicken haemoglobin powder. Each diet was fed to triplicate groups of fish (initial weight: 49.50 ± 0.07 g) twice daily. T ...

Abstract:
... Ample historical evidence has demonstrated the neurotoxicity of organic Hg. However, several studies have suggested that Se effectively sequesters MeHg. The affinity of Hg is up to ≈10⁶ times higher for Se molecules than for comparable sulfur molecules, most of which are components of brain enzymes. The neurotoxicity of MeHg is associated with its binding to Se and the resultant interference with ...

Abstract:
... Predation and reduced energetic intake have been highlighted as potential mechanisms of recruitment failure in sturgeon populations. These two factors may interact, as foraging carries with it costs of increased predation risk, requiring behavioral trade-offs. We expect that juvenile sturgeon should express predator avoidance behaviors while they are within vulnerable size ranges, yet these behavi ...

Abstract:
... Deterring the spread of invasive fishes is a challenge for managers, and bigheaded carp (including bighead and silver carp, Hypophthalmichthys spp.) are invasive fish that have spread throughout large portions of the Mississippi River basin and threaten to invade the Great Lakes’ ecosystem. Studies have shown that elevated levels of carbon dioxide gas (CO₂) have the ability to act as a nonphysical ...

However, M. salmoides appeared to use dietary carbohydrate more poorly than other carnivorous fish. Although carbohydrate metabolism of fish has been well studied for the past decades, studies regarding transcriptomic profiling of carbohydrate metabolism in fish are lacking. In this study, the ...
