Microhybridization enhances intestinal microbiota and glycometabolic regulation in natural gynogenic blunt snout bream derived from the blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala, ♀) × Chinese perch (Siniperca chuatsi, ♂)

Gut microbiota plays critical roles in host nutrition and metabolism, but research on the intestinal nutrition and gut microbiota of gynogenetic offspring, especially from omnivorous and carnivorous crosses, remains scarce. Intestinal tissues were collected from natural gynogenet...

A new type of hybrid bream derived from a hybrid of Megalobrama amblycephala (♀) × Xenocypris davidi (♂)

Blunt snout bream ( Megalobrama amblycephala , BSB, 2 n = 48) is an endemic and economically important freshwater fish in China, characterized by its ease of culture, rapid growth, and high meat quality. However, the industry faces challenges such as germplasm degradation and a l...
