Myo-inositol oxygenase (MIOX) is the rate-limiting enzyme that catalyzes first step of MI metabolism and determines content in aquatic animals. To understand role miox osmotic regulation Nile tilapia, we analyzed its expression different tissues function under hyperosmotic stress. This study showed essential to enhance salinity tolerance tilapia by affecting myo-inositol accumulation, glucose metabolism, antioxidant performance.
