Infectious diseases represent a major threat for the sustainable development of fish farming.
Efficient vaccines are not available against all diseases, and growing antibiotics resistance …

Fish viral diseases represent a constant threat to aquaculture production. Thus, a better
understanding of the cellular mechanisms involved in establishing an antiviral state …

Evolutionary fates of duplicated genes have been widely investigated in many polyploid
plants and animals, but research is scarce in recurrent polyploids. In this study, we focused …

Goldfish comprise around 300 different strains with drastically altered and aesthetical
morphologies making them suitable models for evolutionary developmental biology. The …

Carp from breeding strains with different genetic background present diverse levels of
resistance to viral pathogens. Carp strains of Asian origin, currently being treated as …

How unisexual animals eliminate deleterious mutations to avoid dead ends is one of the
most interesting puzzles in evolutionary genetics. Incorporation of microchromosomes …

Polyploidy and subsequent diploidization provide genomic opportunities for evolutionary
innovations and adaptation. The researches on duplicated gene evolutionary fates in …

The emergence of viral diseases affecting fish and causing very high mortality can lead to
the disruption of aquaculture production. Recently, this occurred in Nile tilapia aquaculture …

Abstract Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2), which infects silver crucian carp including
goldfish (Carassius auratus auratus) and Crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) with high …

Recognition of the non-self signature of invading pathogens is a crucial step for the initiation
of the innate immune mechanisms of the host. The host response to viral and bacterial …
