Abstract The gut microbiota is currently one of the most studied ‘organs’ in animals, and fish are no exception. A complex diversity microbes, including bacteria, archaea, yeast fungus, constitute microbiota, creating a interaction with their host accomplishing multiple beneficial functions, such as food digestion, nutrient absorption, immune system, endocrine stress response. microbiota–pathogen protects by mounting colonization resistance, competing for nutrients space. Changes balance...
Abstract The use and study of microbes in aquaculture has become a common practice the last decade. Metagenomics is relative recent genomics subdiscipline that emerged as promising scientific tool to analyse complex genomes contained within microbial communities. However, despite potential metagenomics, its not yet some agro‐industrial disciplines such aquaculture. In this review, we uses metagenomics highlight diversity dynamics culture systems. This review addresses diversity, roles...
Abstract Aquaculture is an economic activity that faces the unavoidable problem of water quality detriment, which mainly generated by improper management production ponds, including inadequate circulation and aeration, accumulation undigested food residues, excretion metabolic by‐products cultivated organisms other. In addition, increase in suspended organic matter together with presence generation nitrogen compounds can severely affect physiology animal, leading to significant losses...
The use of probiotics is a common practice current shrimp aquaculture. Despite the immunophysiological responses that have been measured in exposed to probiotics, no information currently available on effect this intestinal microbiota. objective work was evaluate probiotic mixture microbiota cultured under farm conditions. A culture-independent method based high-throughput-sequencing (16S rRNA) used examine bacterial communities. traditional system (without probiotics) as reference. Targeted...
The classification performance of Kraken was evaluated in terms sensitivity and specificity when using short long 16S rRNA sequences. A total 440,738 sequences from bacteria with complete taxonomic classifications were downloaded the high quality ribosomal RNA database SILVA. Amplicons produced (86,371 sequences; 1450 bp) by virtual PCR primers covering V1-V9 region 16S-rRNA gene used as reference. Virtual PCŔs internal fragments V3-V4, V4-V5 V3-V5 performed. 81,523, 82,334 82,998 amplicons...
The effects of salinity and temperature on plasma protein concentration total haemocytic prophenoloxidase (proPO) were determined. Groups 10 juvenile yellowleg shrimp, Penaeus californiensis Holmes, acclimated for 20 days at different salinities (28%o, 32%o, 36%o, 40%o 44%o 25 °C) or temperatures (18, 22, 25, 28 32 °C 36%o). While levels not affected, the quantities proPO increased as was elevated. Temperature affected both haemolymph parameters, showing a significant decrease in °C, an...
The 16S rRNA gene has been used as master key for studying prokaryotic diversity in almost every environment. Despite the claim of several researchers to have best universal primers, reality is that no primer demonstrated be truly universal. This suggests conserved regions may not expected. aim this study was evaluate conservation degree so-called flanking hypervariable gene. Data contained SILVA database (release 123) were study. Primers reported matches each region assembled form contigs;...
The shrimp gut is a long digestive structure that includes the Foregut (stomach), Midgut (hepatopancreas) and Hindgut (intestine). Each component has different structural, immunity digestion roles. Given these three tract components’ significance, we examined bacterial compositions of Foregut, Hindgut, fractions. Those communities’ structures were evaluated by sequencing V3 hypervariable region 16S rRNA gene, while functions predicted PICRUSt2 bioinformatics workflow. Also, to avoid...
