Prophenoloxidase has a role in innate immunity in penaeid shrimp
Melanization, which is brought about by the activation of the prophenoloxidase (proPO) cascade, plays an essential role in the invertebrate immune response. It is triggered by minute amounts of microbial cell wall components leading to the activation of the enzyme proPO, which converts phenols into quinones and eventually resulting to the formation of melanin. Recent studies however, revealed t...
متن کاملRNA-seq as a powerful tool for penaeid shrimp genetic progress
The sequences of all different RNA transcripts present in a cell or tissue that are related to the gene expression and its functional control represent what it is called a transcriptome. The transcripts vary between cells, tissues, ontogenetic and environmental conditions, and the knowledge that can be gained through them is of a solid relevance for genetic applications in aquaculture. Some of ...
متن کاملToxicity of aflatoxin B1 to penaeid shrimp.
Single intramuscular injections of aflatoxin B1 into the tail muscle of Penaeus stylirostris produced 24- and 96-h median lethal doses of 100.5 (78.3 to 129.0) and 49.5 (29.8 to 82.3) mg/kg, respectively. A toxicity curve showed no threshold at the levels tested. The mortality response in a feeding study with P. vannamei was not dose dependent, but tissue and organ damage were similar to that s...
متن کاملWhite Spot Viral Disease in Penaeid Shrimp – A Review
The global aquaculture of penaeid shrimp has grown rapidly during the past two decades. In 1998, world shrimp farmers produced an estimated 737 200 t of whole shrimp (this includes 530 200 t from the eastern hemisphere and 207 000t from the western hemisphere), a record 12% increase from the 660 200 t produced in 1997 (Rosenberry 1998, 1999). The shrimp farming sector suffered a serious setback...
متن کاملYellow-head virus: a rhabdovirus-like pathogen of penaeid shrimp
Yellow-head virus (YHV), a highly virulent virus of cultured penaeid shrimp, was originally isolated from the black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon in Thailand. It was initially described as a baculovirus, but was recently reported to be a n RNA-containing virus. The present study reaffirms the genome of highly purified YHV to be an unsegmented single-stranded RNA with negative polarity and of app...
