Amyloodiniosis, commonly referred to as “marine velvet”, velvet disease, is a parasitological disease caused by one of the most common and important parasitic dinoflagellates Amyloodinium ocellatum. The A.ocellatum infects a wide range of fish species in different habitats including tropical and subtropical geographical locations, and has a direct life cycle that comprises three stages: trophont, tomont, and dinospores, which can be completed in less than a week dependent on favorable environmental factors. The disease is characterized by rapid onset and high mortality, which seriously hinders the healthy development of China’s marine fish industrial farming and semi-intensive pond farming, leading to huge economic losses. The typical symptoms of amyloodiniosis are changes in fish behavior, decreased appetite, faster breathing, and swimming at the water surface or gathering at the areas with higher dissolved oxygen concentrations. Fish mortalities are usually attributed to hypoxia, inflammation, severe gill hyperplasia, hemorrhage, and necrosis in heavy infestations. This review summarizes the current situation and the latest researches progress on the life cycle of A.ocellatum, the prevalence, detection methods, and preventive and control measures of amyloodiniosis. It is proposed to strengthen the future research of pathogenic detection of the farming environment, low-temperature preservation, vaccine development, aiming to provide references for the scientific prevention and treatment of marine fish amyloodiniosis in fisheries production.

Fish eggs could be classified into three categories: adhesive, weakly adhesive and non-adhesive, depending on degree of egg adhesiveness. Many commercially important fish spawn as adhesive eggs, and upon contact with water, the outer layer of the chorionic membrane becomes hydrated, and the adhesive substance subsequently becomes activated and sticky. The adhesiveness of eggs is a huge challenge to artificial incubation and breeding technology, and thus the researches on the characteristics and the mechanisms of adhesive eggs are of great significance to the artificial reproduction of fish. Here we reviewed the latest research progress and developments on characteristics and mechanisms of adhesive eggs, and we also compared the effects of various reproduction methods in different fishes. Furthermore, the future and multiple potentials of artificial incubation and reproduction technologies in fishes that produce adhesive eggs are discussed to provide reference for the artificial breeding of adhesive eggs-spawning fishes.

This paper summarizes the progress on principle and technology of high - density rotifer in mass culture method in Japan. There are at least 100 times more efficient in Japanese mass rotifer culture method with less cost for production than that in the conventional method. Firstly, condensed freshwater Chlorella is employed as new food for rotifers instead of bakery yeast and Nannochloropsis. Secondly, cultures were generally supplied with constant O2 to avoid oxygen deficiency. Thirdly, pH was adjusted to 7 by automatic addition of HCl to promote the dissociation of NH3 to NH4^＋ and OH^-. Fourth, the excess suspended organic matter can be efficiently romoved by a nylon filtration mat. Fifth, addition of a defoamer substance can prevent the culture water from loss and from rotifer attachment to the foam. Using these techniques, the rotifer culture density increases to 20 000 ind. /mL. Recently a novel culture system using a continuous membrane filtration unit （CMFU） for ultra -high -density culture is developed in Japan. In this culture system NH4^＋ and soluble organic substances are removed by the culture liquid, with rotifer density of 160 000 ind. /mL.

The fish fed fairy shrimp had body weightof1545.2mg,body length of22.509mm and survival rate of88.7％on 24 DPH,significantly higher than those in the fish fed egg yolk and soybean milk.The larvae had good growth by 14 DPH,and seldom grew later when they fed egg yolk.Theminimal growth and survival rates were found in the fish fed soybeanmilk.The findings indicated that rotifers enriched byChlorella vulgariswasmost suitable as aweaning food,and that the key point for initial feedingwas of14 DPH in bulatmaibarbell larvae,egg yolk being used as a supplement food before 14 DPH.

 To construct a polar ratio fluorescent probe for accurate detection of biological microenvironment, the probe IA based on naphthalene ring fluorophore was firstly synthesized by introducing malononitrile and N, N-dimethyl group on acenaphthene ketone, and then the polarity responsive ratio fluorescent probe IAN was synthesized by condensation reaction of IA amino group into heterocycle. The molecular structure and mass of probes IA and IAN were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS, and then the absorption and fluorescence spectra of probes IA and IAN in different polarity solvents were examined and compared by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectrophotometer. The results showed that IA exhibited single absorption and fluorescence emission peaks and fluorescence intensity of IA was gradually enhanced with solvent polarity increasing. Differently, double absorption and fluorescence emission peaks of IAN were simultaneously detected in solvents (λem=474 nm, and 552 nm), and the fluorescence intensity ratio I474 nm/I552 nm produced a sensitive Boltzmann function response to solvent polarity changes. Compared with IA, IAN was able to respond accurately to environmental polarity changes as a ratio fluorescent probe. The fluorescence intensity of the lesions was shown to be significantly lower than those of the healthy tissues by using IAN on mice with breast cancer and grouper hybrid Epinephelus fuscoguttatus♀×E.lanceolatus♂ with hepatobiliary syndrome. These findings indicated that amino group undergoing a condensation reaction to generate a heterocycle containing nitrogen atom increased the conjugation degree of lone pair electrons of the nitrogen atom to the π system, so that the probe IAN produced n→π* and π→π* molecular transition at the same time, and then enabled the construction of a ratio fluorescent probe responding sensitively to polarity changes.

Types and levels of nutrients in feed not only affect gonad development, fecundity, gamete production, fertilization rate, hatching rate and embryonic development of aquatic animals, but also affect the quality and survival rate of their larvae. In the course of breeding, the common methods to promote reproduction mainly include physical heating and cooling, water stimulation, dry stimulation, and removal of eyestalks. In recent years, it has become the focus on scientific research and commerce to control the reproductive capacity of aquatic organisms by changing the types and levels of nutrients in feedstuffs. In this paper, the application status of common nutrients in aquaculture is reviewed, and the effects of different nutrients on the reproductive performance of aquatic animals are introduced. Many studies have shown that nutrients such as protein, fat, vitamins, minerals and sugars can significantly improve the growth performance and reproductive capacity of aquatic animals, but some contradictory results have also been reported. These results seem to depend on differences in the type, source, content, and experimental conditions of cultured aquatic animals. The purpose of this review is to discuss the effects of different sources and levels of nutrients on the reproductive capacity of aquatic animals and their mechanisms, so as to provide scientific basis for the promotion of aquaculture.

The theory of the optimal stocking time of fish fry is developed from regular pattern of water quality and plankton development, especially rotifera peak period, after disinfection of a pond, and organ development of fry related to initial feeding, and includes two aspects: physiological optimal stocking time and ecological optimal stocking time. The physiological optimal stocking time indicates fry organ development gradually adapts to start feeding in terms of structure and function, and the ecological optimal stocking time indicates to provide the pond with initial feeding, suitable density and good external ecological environment conditions in the ponds. We review the development process of the theory of the optimal stocking time of fish fry and divided suitable initial weaning diets into nine types: rotifer, Artemia nauplii, Cladocera, Limnodrilus，bait fish fry, phytoplankton，body surface mucus, compound initial feed, and microparticle feed according to the research status of suitable initial feeding for main economically important fishes. “Timely” in this theory needs to be more accurate under different conditions. It is necessary to make a systematic study on the series of diets from initial feeding “mouth opening” (postlarvae) to juvenile stage in order to improve the survival rate of fry and ecological breeding.

Streptococcus agalactiae as one pathogen in tilapia has brought huge economic losses to the tilapia breeding industry due to strong contagiousness and high mortality by the pathogen. This pathogen infects tilapia by different pathways, including cohabitation, oral route, immersion, intraperitoneal and intramuscular inoculation, and is capable of replicating in tilapia bloodstream, penetrating the blood-brain barrier into brain, resulting in meningitis, and passing through the mucus layer of both the stomach and intestine and finally adhered, colonized and invaded the gastrointestinal epithelium, leading to typical histopathological changes, including meningitis, epicarditis, hemorrhage in renal interstitium, multifocal necrotizing splenitis and septicemia in tilapia. The most frequent clinical symptoms of affected tilapia are erratic swimming, exophthalmia, hemorrhage at the operculum, pectoral, and ventral areas and rapidly progressing mortality. Traditional diagnosis methods for the detection of S.agalactiae in the host tissues are based on bacterial culture, and DNA-based methods including PCR and loop-mediated isothermal amplification are increasingly used. Molecular typing of S.agalactiae strains has been performed by different methods, such as molecular serotyping, amplified fragment length polymorphism, multiple-locus variant-repeat assay, and pulsed field gel electrophoresis, multilocus sequence typing. Virulence genes have faster mutation rates and higher polymorphism than housekeeping genes, and the multi-virulence locus sequencing typing method can be widely used to evaluate genetic variation in S.agalactiae. At present, aquaculture depends on antibiotics to treat or prevent S.agalactiae disease in tilapia. Although these antimicrobials have some benefits, the abuse of antibiotics occurs during tilapia production, leading to the development of antimicrobial-resistant strains. Although vaccination is an alternative method to control streptococcal diseases, few commercial vaccines are currently available for treatment of S.agalactiae disease in a large scale tilapia production. This paper comprehensively summarizes the latest research progress and development trends in etiology, epidemiology, pathology, pathogenic mechanism, detection methods, molecular typing, antibiotic resistance and vaccines of S.agalactiae in tilapia. The current problems that need to be solved are discussed and valuable measurements are suggested for the prevention and control of S.agalactiae disease in tilapia.

A total of 360 individuals of blunt snout bream Megalobrama amblycephala with body weight of(13.5± 0.5)g was randomly stocked into a tank with a stocking density of 30 fish and fed diets containing fructo-oligosaccharide(FOS)at a dose of 0,0.4%and 0.8%with four replication for 8 weeks and then activities of immune enzymes and antioxidant capability were detected in serum of 24 fish per tank exposed to 34℃by a colorimetry and an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay in order to explore effects of FOS on immune response and antioxidant capability of blunt snout bream under heat stress.The results showed that there were no significant differences in activities of glutamic oxalo acetic transaminase(GOT)and alkline phosphatase(AKP)among all groups in the fish without thermal stress(P＞0.05).Meanwhile,there were significantly lower activities of glutamic pyruvic transaminase(GPT)in the fish fed the diets containing FOS than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The blunt snout bream fed the diet containing 0.4%of FOS group had significantly lower GPT activity(P＜0.05)than the animals fed the diet containing 0.8%of FOS,without significant difference between in 0.8%FOS group and the control group in 24 h(P＞0.05).The fish fed the diet containing 0.4%of FOS exposed to 34℃for 12 h showed significantly higher AKP activity than the fish in the other groups did(P＜0.05).There were significantly higher complement 3(C3)and complement 4(C4)in 0.4%FOS than that in the control without thermal stress(P＜0.05)and with 3 h and 6 h thermal stress,without significant difference between the control and the 0.8%FOS group(P＞0.05).There were increase in activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and total antioxidant enzyme(T-AOC) among all groups with thermal stress,without significant difference(P＞0.05).The activities of catalase(CAT) and T-AOC were shown to be significantly higher first in fish fed the diet containing 0.4%of FOS than those in the control group(P＜0.05),the maximum in 6 h thermal exposure,significantly higher T-AOC activity in 0.4%FOS group compared to that in the control group at 3 h and 6 h thermal exposure(P＜0.05).The malondialdehyde (MDA)contents were increased first and then decreased with thermal stress,significantly lower in 0.4%FOS group than that of the control group in 0 h and 48 h thermal exposure(P＜0.05).In addition,there was no significant interaction between the FOS levels and the sampling time(P＞0.05).In conclusion,dietary supplementation of 0.4%FOS may effectively relieve the adverse effects of heat stress on blunt snout bream.

The species，functional mechanism and application of antagonistic bacteria in animal pathogens in aquature are reviewed to research for preventive and controll measures to replace antibiotics in aquaculture.Moreover，the new trends and prospects of probiotics application in aquaculture are also discussed.The findings will provide references with research and development of probiotics and control of the disease in aquaculture.
