Currently, disease management is a major challenge for high-density aquaculture in China and a major factor limiting the healthy and sustainable development of our aquaculture industry. Research on fish-derived probiotics as safe feed additives is still relatively limited. In this study, we screened Larimichthys crocea for intestinal lactobacilli, obtained high adhesion strain Lactobacillus sakei YLD10, and further investigated its probiotic function and mechanism of resistance to Pseudomonas plecoglossicida infection.

However, the utilization of plant-based protein sources, like soybean globulin, in aquafeeds may induce intestinal inflammation, compromising fish health. In this study, models of Toll-like receptor (TLR) gene expression were constructed using dual-luciferase reporter vectors.

Our prior research on large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) demonstrated that dietary 1 g/kg APS bolstered fish immunity and antioxidant defense. However, the combined effect of ELE and APS in juvenile large yellow croaker remains unknown.

Existing detection methods are systematically categorized into three primary classes: feaRture-extraction-and-classification-based approaches, object-detection-models-based methods and multi-sensor-fusion-based methods. Through a detailed comparison, their respective workflows, strengths, limitations, and applicability across different contexts are examined.

Flagella-mediated swarming motility plays a crucial role in facilitating the rapid colonization and dissemination of bacterial within the host. The swarming motility of Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is intricately associated with its lateral flagella, and notably, the lateral flagella system of P. plecoglossicida encompasses a transcriptional regulator known as LafK.

The FliL protein, involved in torque production of the bacterial flagella motor, is essential for the pathogenicity of a variety of bacteria. In the current study, the gene deletion strain (Δ), gene complement strain (C-Δ), and wild-type strain (NZBD9) were compared to explore the influence of the gene on pathogenicity and its role in host immune response.

Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is a pathogen that causes visceral white spot disease in a variety of teleosts. The protein encoded by fliP gene is involved in the assembly of bacterial flagella, which plays a vital role in bacterial pathogenicity. However, the roles of the fliP gene on the host immune response remain unclear.

Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is a Gram-negative pathogenic bacterium that causes visceral white spot disease in several marine fish species, resulting in high mortality and financial loss. Based on previous RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) results, rpoD gene expression is significantly up-regulated in P. plecoglossicida during infection, indicating that rpoD may contribute to bacterial pathogenicity.
