Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) and melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) are critical cytosolic sensors that trigger the production of interferons (IFNs). Though their recognition functions are well identified, their unique roles in the downstream signal transduction remain to be elucidated. Herein, we report the differential effect between grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idell...

effect of dietary mixture of prebiotic mannan oligosaccharide (mos) and β-1,3glucan, on growth performance, survival and body composition in grass carp juvenile (ctenopharyngodon idella) were investigated for 56 days. practical diets were supplemented with 0, 0.5, 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 g/kg mixture of mos and β-1,3glucan in a totally randomized design trial in triplicate groups. the experiment carri...

Characterization of the transcriptomic response to infection is an effective approach to understanding the immune mechanisms. Herein we challenged grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) with grass carp reovirus (GCRV) and sequenced four cDNA libraries obtained from head-kidney and spleen by using Illumina Miseq. As a result, we gained a total of 21.52 Gb clean data with 107.96 million reads, and ...

The present study was conducted on two species of cyprinid fish: Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio) and grass (Ctenopharyngodon idella). includes the effect increasing salinity survival rate, oxygen consumption, glucose total protein levels in blood plasma, energy usage, food consumption growth rate. carp show more resistance to with 90% rate 15 g/l salinity. While did not survive than 5 g/L. Increa...

Global fish production from aquaculture has rapidly grown over the past decades, and grass carp shares the largest portion. However, hemorrhagic disease caused by grass carp reovirus (GCRV) results in tremendous loss of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) industry. During the past years, development of molecular biology and cellular biology technologies has promoted significant advances in the...

BACKGROUND Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) is one of the most economically important freshwater fish, but its production is often affected by diseases that cause serious economic losses. To date, no good breeding varieties have been obtained using the oriented cultivation technique. The ability to identify disease resistance genes in grass carp is important to cultivate disease-resistant v...

Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) is an important worldwide commercial freshwater culture species. However, grass carp reovirus (GCRV) causes serious hemorrhagic disease in fingerlings and yearlings of fishes. To understand the molecular pathogenesis of host cells during GCRV infection, intensive proteomic quantification analysis of lysine acetylation in Ctenopharyngodon idella kidney (CIK)...

In many North American rivers, populations of multiple species of non-native cyprinid fishes are present, including black carp (Mylpharyngodon piceus), grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis), silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), common carp (Cyprinus carpio), and goldfish (Carassius auratus). All six of these species are found in the Mississippi Ri...
