Project description:In recent years, the scale culture of Chinese soft-shelled turtle has developed rapidly. However, diseases in aquaculture are the main problems affecting the rapid and healthy cultivation. Strengthening the immunity of Chinese soft-shelled turtles is extremely important to control the infection of pathogenic bacteria. Bacillus has attracted attention as a probiotic supplement in aquatic feeds.In our previous studies, we found that the addition of Bacillus subtilis B10 to diets could increase survival rate, daily weight gain (DG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of Chinese soft-shelled turtles, improving the activities of digestive enzyme and optimizing the microbial communities of intestinal in Chinese soft-shelled turtle.However, the study on the mechanism of Bacillus subtilis B10 in Chinese soft-shelled turtle culture remains rare. Therefore, in this study, we used Bacillus subtilis B10 to feed the turtle, and used RNA-seq to explore its mechanism.
Project description:To investigate the cellular responses of the Chinese soft-shelled turtle after niclosamide exposure, a total of 45 healthy juvenile turtles randomly selected and divided into three groups containing one control group (without NIC exposure, CG) and two experimental groups (exposed to 10 and 50 μg/L of NIC, respectively).
