The blotched snakehead (Channa maculata) is a freshwater species of economic importance, widely distributed throughout Southeast Asia and Southern China. comprehension genetic regulatory mechanisms underlying growth traits, particularly body weight, paramount for the advancement viability aquaculture. Despite its limited investigations have been undertaken regarding properties this species. To enhance our grasp regulation dictating traits identify pertinent loci, inaugural genome-wide...

To evaluate the effects of dietary protein on reproductive performance, egg quality and larval health blotched snakehead Channa maculata, three groups were designed: a high group (HP) with 48% content, low (LP) 44% control (C) fed commercial feed containing 40% protein. The results demonstrated that HP diet significantly enhanced maternal absolute fecundity, size offspring health; however, it had no impact fertilization rate hatching rate. plasma levels 11-ketotestosterone, 17β-estradiol,...

The Asian yellow pond turtle (Mauremys mutica) is widely traded in China, and its artificial breeding has now become a major industry. However, the insufficient offspring supply reproductive decline of farmed turtles make wild more vulnerable. present study was mainly designed to quantify fecundity M. mutica attempt screen for good performance females. genetic variability population structure were also analysed. parent–offspring relationships all four consecutive years confirmed using...

Channa argus and maculata are the main cultured species of snakehead fish family, Channidae. The relationship between them is close enough that they can mate; however, their temperature adaptability quite different. In this study, we sequenced assembled whole genomes C. obtained chromosome-level genome assemblies 630.39 618.82 Mb, respectively. Contig N50 was 13.20 21.73 scaffold 27.66 28.37 with 28,054 24,115 coding genes annotated for maculata, Our analyses showed have 24 21 chromosomes,...

Abstract Knowledge of sex determination has important implications in physiology, ecology and genetics, but the evolutionary mechanisms systems turtles have not been fully elucidated, due to a lack reference genomes. Here, we generate high-quality genome assembly Asian yellow pond turtle ( Mauremys mutica ) using continuous long-read (PacBio platform), Illumina, high-throughput chromatin conformation capture (Hi-C) technologies. The M . haplotype size 2.23 Gb with contig N50 8.53 Mb scaffold...

The cyp19a1 gene codes aromatase that converts androgen to estrogen, which plays a central role in early female differentiation and ovarian development teleosts. For the blotched snakehead (Channa maculata), an important aquaculture fish is susceptible hormone-induced sex reversal, two genes were characterized present study, cyp19a1a cyp19a1b. We analyzed expression epigenetic state of cyp19a1b different adult tissues: gonad brain from normal XX females (XX-F), XY males (XY-M), sex-reversal...

The Asian giant softshell turtle, Pelochelys cantorii (Trionychidae), is endangered and was designated as a First Grade Protected Animal in China 1989 listed Endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List 2000; species has suffered gradual reduction its range, total population decreased, need to protect this been ignored. We investigated 13 nature reserves with P. main object protection 5 captive-breeding centers; we also present results from questionnaire sent one...

Abstract Crystalline thermoelectric materials, especially SnSe crystals, have emerged as promising candidates for power generation and electronic cooling. In this study, significant enhancement in ZT is achieved through the combined effects of lattice distortions band convergence multiple valence bands. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that cation vacancies together with Pb substitutional doping promote increase density states (DOS) near Fermi surface SnSe, leading to...

Snakeheads are economically important freshwater fish in China, of which males grow much faster than females, and the individual size determines trading price. All-male NBS (northern snakehead (Channa argus, NS) ♀ × blotched maculata, BS) ♂) were produced by combining sex control, sex-specific molecular marker hybridization YY super-male BS normal XX female NS. In this study, culture performance all-male was evaluated, including yield, survival rate, growth ratio, uniformity, feed conversion...
