Organic selenium has been widely studied as a nutritional supplement for animal feed. However, there are few studies on the effect of organic selenium on flesh quality. In this study, the effects of organic selenium (yeast selenium (YS), Se 0.002 mg/...

This study investigated the effects of fish oil (FO), soybean oil (SO), rapeseed oil (RO), peanut oil (PO) and lard oil (LO) on growth, immunity and muscle quality in juvenile largemouth bass. After 8 weeks, the results showed that FO and RO could in...

Male largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) are often overlooked because females grow faster. We explored the value of male largemouth bass by comparing muscle nutrition, texture, and transcriptomes between males and females. Females grew faster tha...

Two feeding strategies based on the use of trash fish (TF) and an artificial compound feed (ACF) were compared in terms of growth performance, feed efficiency, muscle quality and health status in Micropterus salmoides. For this purpose, fish (128 &pl...

This study investigates the effects of saline, alkaline, and combined saline–alkaline water environments on the growth, muscle quality, gene expression, and metabolic profiles of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides). Juvenile fish were expos...

This study compared the muscle quality of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) reared in a simplified indoor factory-scale recirculating aquaculture system (F-RAS) with those reared in a traditional pond (TP). Juveniles from the same cohort (with...

Crossbreeding often results in heterosis. In this study, we generated hybrids from largemouth bass from geographically isolated populations. Growth, digestive enzyme activity, and muscle nutrient composition were compared between the hybrid groups (N...

This study’s objectives were to determine the effect of Largemouth Bass (LMB) muscle hydrolysates obtained using same-species digestive enzymes and the degree of LMB muscle hydrolysis when included in the first feeds of growth performance and s...

This study investigated the effects of curcumin nanoparticles on the flesh quality of largemouth bass on a high-carbohydrate diet. A total of 180 fish (11.01 ± 0.02 g) were fed three semi-purified diets: the Control group (LC) were supplemente...

This study was designed to investigate the effects of enzymatically hydrolyzed poultry by-products (EHPB) on the growth and muscle quality of largemouth bass. Different concentrations of EHPB (0.00, 3.10, 6.20, 9.30, and 12.40%) were added to replace...

The present research examined the impact of L-glutamic acid (Glu) supplementation on the growth performance, muscle composition, gene expression correlated with muscle growth, and intestinal health of largemouth bass. There were 525 fish in total, wh...

The genus Eustrongylides includes nematodes that infect fish species and fish-eating birds inhabiting freshwater ecosystems. Nematodes belonging to the genus Eustrongylides are potentially pathogenic for humans; infection occurs after the consumption...

Intestinal health is critical for nutrient absorption and disease resistance in cultured fish. Yet, the effects of dietary Eucalyptus-derived biochar on the gut of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) remain largely unexplored. This study evaluate...

The typical clinical signs of Nocardia seriolae infection include white nodules, ranging from 0.1 to 10 mm in diameter, distributed across various internal organs. However, the structural composition of nodules of different sizes remains unexplored....

Aquaculture environment plays important roles in regulating the growth, morphology, nutrition, and flavor of aquatic products. The present study investigated growth, morphology, nutrition, and flavor formation in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoide...

The influence of dietary glutamate (Glu) was evaluated in a 56-day feeding trial on the growth performance and flesh quality of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides). A total of 1170 fish (average body weight 24.05 ± 0.22 g) were randomly al...

Veterinary drug residues in aquatic products are often overlooked, yet they pose significant environmental risks and potential threats to human health. In this study, a rapid and sensitive analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determin...

This study aimed to evaluate different commercial diets (Otohime C1, Aller Futura (AF), Biomar Inicio Plus (BIP)) and one experimental feed (EF) in terms of their effectiveness as post-larval diets for indoor weaned largemouth bass, LMB (Micropterus...

The purpose of this study was to measure organ blood flow (OBF) in yellow catfish (YC, Pelteobagrus fulvidraco), largemouth bass (LB, Micropterus salmoides), and grass carp (GC, Ctenopharyngodon idella) using the method of fluorescent microspheres. Y...

Inappropriate substitution of dietary fishmeal (FM) can adversely affect the growth, health, and metabolism of carnivorous fish species. To effectively reduce the amount of dietary FM in carnivorous largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), a terrestr...

This study evaluated the effect of Lentinus edodes fermentation (LEF) on digestive enzyme activity, antioxidant capacity and morphology of the liver and intestine in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) fed high plant protein diets (HPPD). LEF was...

Black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae are a promising source of insect lipids, characterized by rapid fatty acid accumulation and a high lauric acid content. This study investigated the effects of dietary black soldier fly oil (BSFO) on muscle...

The effects of starvation and refeeding on the gut condition of juvenile largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) remain unclear. Therefore, our research aimed to explore these effects. Amylase and lipase activities were remarkably decreased in the st...

This study aimed to explore the effects of dietary rapeseed meal replacing fish meal on growth performance, intestinal structure, gut microbiota, and related gene expression of juvenile largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides). Five isonitrogenous and...

Background/Objectives: MS-222 is a commonly used anesthetic for fish. Research on the anesthetic mechanism of MS-222 is scarce, especially in largemouth bass. Therefore, this study investigated the tissue-specific transcriptomic and metabolomic effec...
