The production of fertile eggs with the capacity to develop into larvae and subsequently into
marketable fish is centrally important to the aquaculture industry. This entails not only the …

Gonadal steroidogenesis is pivotal to synchronize various reproductive stages including
sexual development, growth and maturation. In all vertebrates including teleost …

Microplastics are ubiquitous in marine environments and may cause unexpected ecological
effects. This study adopted a whole life-cycle exposure to illuminate the impact of …

As an oocyte-specific growth factor, bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) plays a critical
role in controlling folliculogenesis. However, the mechanism of BMP15 action remains …

Pesticides are well known for their high levels of persistence and ubiquity in the
environment, and because of their capacity to bioaccumulate and disrupt the food chain …

Atresia of ovarian follicles, that is the degenerative process of germ cells and their
associated somatic cells, is a complex process involving apoptosis, autophagy and …

Microplastics (MPs) and endocrine disrupting chemicals are ubiquitous pollutants in marine
environments, but their combined ecological risk is unclear. This study exposed male marine …

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant problem in health care, animal health, and
food safety. To limit AMR, there is a need for alternatives to antibiotics to enhance disease …

The general understanding has been that only adaptive immunity is capable of
immunological memory, but this concept has been challenged in recent years by studies …

Stressor‐induced elevation of circulating cortisol levels is generally considered to have an
inhibitory effect on reproduction in teleosts. However, mature female fish have higher levels …
