Background The most critical step in the pearl formation during aquaculture is issued to the proliferation and differentiation of outer epithelial cells of mantle graft into pearl sac. This pearl sac secretes various matrix proteins to produce pearls by a complex physiological process which has not been well-understood yet. Here, we aimed to unravel the genes involved in the development of pearl sac...
Pufferfish accumulate tetrodotoxin (TTX) at high levels in liver and ovary through the food chain. However, the mechanisms underlying TTX toxification in pufferfish have been poorly understood. In order to search gene candidates involved in TTX accumulation in the torafugu pufferfish Takifugu rubripes, a custom 4x44k oligonucleotide microarray slide was designed by the Agilent eArray program using...
Rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss is a cold-water aquaculture species, and a thermally selected strain has been developed by multigenerational high-temperature breeding in Japan. We examined the expression of heat-shock proteins as candidates responsible for thermotolerance in rainbow trout using F2 offspring from F1 hybrids produced between thermally selected and normal strains. From F2 offspring,...
