Microbiol Spectr 2024; 12:e0288123. [PMID: 39162262 PMCID: PMC11448099 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02881-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Microorganisms are vital for the health of marine invertebrates, and their assembly is driven by both deterministic and stochastic factors that regulate residents (innate to the host) and transients (from ambient water). However, the role of water microbiota and the significance of deterministic and stochastic processes in aquatic hosts facing mortality threats are largely unknown. This study examines the shifts in water microbiota during an oyster mortality event using amplicon sequencing and compared with those of resident oysters to disentangle the balance of the deterministic and stochastic factors involved. Water temperature and dissolved oxygen significantly shape the microbial community with a distinct monthly pattern, and Cyanobacteria blooms might exacerbate oyster mortality. The comparative analysis of microbial communities in oysters and water revealed that ≤ 21% of the genera were shared between oysters and water, implying that water microbiota cannot easily transfer into oysters. Furthermore, these shared genera had different functions, with oysters more involved in promoting host digestion and nutrient acquisition and water bacteria enriched more in functions promoting their own growth and survival. These findings illustrate that oysters may possess specific selection or barrier mechanisms that permit a small percentage of transients, controlled by stochastic factors and having a minimal effect on oyster mortality, to enter, whereas the majority of oyster microbiota are residents governed by deterministic factors. Consequently, oysters exhibit some plasticity in their symbiotic microbiota, enabling them to maintain microbial homeostasis and adapt to complex microbial surroundings. This may be a shared mechanism among marine invertebrates for survival in complex marine environments.IMPORTANCEPacific oysters are widely cultured and play vital ecological roles. However, the summer mortality hinders sustainable oyster farming. Untangling causative mechanisms of oyster mortality is a complex task due to the intricate "interactome" involving environmental factors, hosts, and pathogens. Interactions between hosts and microorganisms offer an ideal avenue for investigating the truth. We systematically investigated the microbial community in water and resident oysters during a summer mortality event and proposed that the assembly of oyster microbiota is primarily governed by deterministic processes independent of mortality. Pathogens mainly originate from resident members of the oyster microbiota, with a limited influence from the microbial community in the water. Additionally, environmental degraders, such as Cyanobacteria blooms, cannot be overlooked as a contributing factor of oyster mortality. This study evaluated the weight of deterministic and stochastic factors in microbial assembly during an oyster mortality event and greatly broadened our understanding of the "interactome" through the interaction between oysters and water in microbiota.

Abstract
The significant role played by the gut microbiota in fish growth, development, immunity, and overall health has been widely established. Nevertheless, there remains a lack of clarity regarding the interaction and origin between the environmental microbiota and the gut microbiota of aquaculture species within the aquaponics coupling system. Thus, we conducted an analysis of the gut microbiota of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) obtained from an indoor enclosed circulating water aquaponics coupling system located in greenhouses in northern China. Additionally, we examined the microbiota of the fish pond water and tomato rhizosphere soil using high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene. Our results demonstrated significant differences in the compositions of fish pond water, rhizosphere soil, and the gut microbiota of largemouth bass. Moreover, these compositions changed throughout the culture period. Approximately 11.99% of the bacterial composition in the gut microbiota of largemouth bass could be attributable to the rhizosphere soil microbiota, while 62.01% of the bacterial composition could be attributable to the fish pond water microbiota. However, the proportion of bacteria in the gut microbiota from the fish pond water microbiota remained respectively 40.90% and 56.15% in May and September, which increased markedly to 88.97% in July. Similarly, the proportion of bacteria in the pond water microbiota from the tomato rhizosphere soil microbiota were respectively 0% and 8.95% in samples collected in May and September, which increased markedly to 69.26% in July, and the proportion of bacteria in the gut microbiota from the tomato rhizosphere soil microbiota were respectively 0.07% and 0% in samples collected in May and September, which increased to 0.45% in July. The research results offer essential insights into the interactions and origins of environmental microbiota and gut microbiota in the aquaponics system of cultured fish. This knowledge could enhance green aquaponics practices for largemouth bass.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 283:116829.

Abstract
Nitrite exposure has become a significant concern in the aquaculture industry, posing a severe threat to aquatic animals such as shrimp. While studies have reported the adverse effects of nitrite on shrimp growth, the part played by the gut microbiota in shrimp mortality resulting from nitrite exposure is poorly understood. Here, the effects of nitrite on shrimp gut bacterial community were investigated using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, bacterial isolation, genomic analysis, and infection experiments. Compared to the control_healthy group, changes in the bacterial composition of the nitrite_dead group were associated with reduced abundance of specific beneficial bacteria and increased abundance of certain pathogenic bacteria. Notably, members of the Photobacterium genus were found to be significantly enriched in the nitrite_dead group. Genomic analysis of a representative Photobacterium strain (LvS-8n3) revealed a variety of genes encoding bacterial toxins, including hemolysin, adhesin, and phospholipase. Furthermore, it was also found that LvS-8n3 exhibits strong pathogenicity, probably due to its high production of pathogenic factors and the ability to utilize nitrite for proliferation. Therefore, the proliferation of pathogenic Photobacterium species appears pivotal for driving shrimp mortality caused by nitrite exposure. These findings provide novel insights into the disease mechanism in shrimp under conditions of environmental change.

Abstract
Offshore coastal marine ranching ecosystems provide habitat for diverse and active bacterial communities. In this study, 16S rRNA gene sequencing and multiple bioinformatics methods were applied to investigate assembly dynamics and relationships in different habitats. The higher number of edges in the water network, more balanced ratio of positive and negative links, and more keystone species included in the co-occurrence network of water. Stochastic processes dominated in shaping gut and sediment community assembly (R2 < 0.5), while water bacterial community assembly were dominated by deterministic processes (R2 > 0.5). Dissimilarity-overlap curve model indicated that the communities in different habitats have general dynamics and interspecific interaction (P < 0.001). Bacterial source-tracking analysis revealed that the gut was more similar to the sediment than the water bacterial communities. In summary, this study provides basic data for the ecological study of marine ranching through the study of bacterial community dynamics.

Abstract
Phlorotannins are phenolic compounds with diverse biological activities, yet their efficacy in aquatic animals currently remains unclear. This investigation scrutinized the influence of phlorotannins on the growth, immunity, antioxidant capacity, and intestinal microbiota in Litopenaeus vannamei, concurrently evaluating the potential adverse effects of phlorotannins on L. vannamei. A base diet without phlorotannins supplementation was used as a control, and 4 groups of diets with different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 g kg-1) of phlorotannins were formulated and fed to juvenile shrimp (0.25 ± 0.01 g) for 60 days followed by a 24-h challenge with Vibrio parahaemolyticus with triplicate in each group. Compared with the control, dietary 2.0 g kg-1 phlorotannins significantly improved the growth of the shrimp. The activities of enzymes related to cellular immunity, humoral immunity, and antioxidants, along with a notable upregulation in the expression of related genes, significantly increased. After V. parahaemolyticus challenge, the cumulative survival rates of the shrimp demonstrated a positive correlation with elevated concentrations of phlorotannins. In addition, the abundance of Bacteroidetes and functional genes associated with metabolism increased in phlorotannins supplementation groups. Phlorotannins did not elicit any detrimental effects on the biological macromolecules or histological integrity of the hepatopancreas or intestines. Simultaneously, it led to a significant reduction in malondialdehyde content. All results indicated that phlorotannins at concentrations of 2.0 g kg-1 can be used as safe feed additives to promote the growth, stimulate the immune response, improve the antioxidant capacity and intestinal health of L. vannamei, and an protect shrimp from damage caused by oxidative stress.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of Bacillus subtilis BSXE-1601, applied either as dietary supplementation or water addition, on growth performance, immune responses, disease resistance of Penaeus vannamei, and microbiota in shrimp gut and rearing water. During the 42-day feeding experiment, shrimp were fed with basal diet (CO and BW group), basal diet supplemented with live strain BSXE-1601 at the dose of 1 × 109 CFU kg-1 feed (BD group) and 15 mg kg-1 florfenicol (FL group), and basal diet with strain BSXE-1601 added to water at the concentration of 1 × 107 CFU L-1 every five days (BW group). Results showed that dietary supplementation of strain BSXE-1601 significantly promoted growth performance of shrimp, both in the diet and water, enhanced disease resistance against Vibrio parahaemolyticus (P < 0.05). The BD and BW groups exhibited significant increases in acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, lysozyme, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase activities, phenonoloxidase content in the serum of shrimp compared to the control (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the expression of immune-related genes proPO, LZM, SOD, LGBP, HSP70, Imd, Toll, Relish, TOR, 4E-BP, eIF4E1α, eIF4E2 were significantly up-regulated compared to the control (P < 0.05). When added in rearing water, strain BSXE-1601 induced greater immune responses in shrimp than the dietary supplement (P < 0.05). Chao1 and Shannon indices of microbiota in rearing water were significantly lower in BD group than in the control. The microbiota in rearing water were significantly altered in BD, BW and FL groups compared to the control, while no significant impacts were observed on the microbiota of shrimp gut. When supplemented into the feed, strain BSXE-1601 obviously reduced the number of nodes, edges, modules in the ecological network of rearing water. The results suggested that dietary supplementation of BSXE-1601 could be more suitable than water addition in the practice of shrimp rearing when growth performance, non-specific immunity, disease resistance against V. parahaemolyticus in shrimp were collectively considered.

Abstract
Cyanobacterial blooms (CBs) present significant challenges to Chinese mitten crab (CMC) culture, posing hazards to the aquatic microbial ecology. However, the current focus on the microbial ecological changes within the CMC culture system under the influence of CBs is somewhat insufficient. There's an urgent need to analyze the microbial ecosystem of the CMC culture system under CBs. This study employed 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to investigate the dynamics of the environmental microbial community in both the rice-crab co-culture (RC) and crab monoculture (CM) models. The results revealed that cyanobacteria reached high levels in the CM water in July, while they began to increase in the RC water in August. Notably, OTU147 (uncultured bacterium g_Planktothrix NIVA-CYA 15), identified as the dominant taxon associated with CBs, showed a significant linear relationship with TP, NO2 --N, and the N:P ratio. TP, TN, NO2 --N, and CODMn had a more pronounced impact on the structure of bacterial communities and cyanobacterial taxa in the water. The bacterial community structure involved in carbon metabolism displayed temporal succession in the water. The co-occurrence network of the bacterial community primarily consisted of Chloroflexi, Proteobacteria, and Firnicutes in the sediment, and Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Chloroflexi, and Bacteroidota in the water. In contrast, the co-occurrence network included different peripheral species in the sediment and water. Keystone species were predominantly represented by OTU22 (uncultured actinobacterium g_ hgcI clade) and OTU12 (uncultured Opitutae bacterium g_ norank) in the RC water, and by OTU25 (uncultured bacterium g_ Limnohabitans) in the CM water. TP, TN, NO2 --N, and CODMn were identified as the primary environmental factors influencing these keystone taxa within the culture water. In conclusion, this study on the microbial ecology of the CMC culture system under the influence of CBs provides valuable insights that can be instrumental in subsequent management efforts.

Abstract
In the modern era of Aquaculture, biofloc technology (BFT) systems have attained crucial attention. This technology is used to reduce water renewal with the removal of nitrogen and to provide additional feed. In BFT, microorganisms play a crucial role due to their complex metabolic properties. Pathogens can be controlled through multiple mechanisms using probiotics, which can promote host development and enhance the quality of the culture environment. During culturing in a biofloc technology system, the supplementation of microalgae and its accompanying bacteria plays a beneficial role in reducing nitrogenous compounds. This enhances water quality and creates favorable environmental conditions for specific bacterial groups, while simultaneously reducing the dependency on carbon sources with higher content. The fluctuations in the bacterial communities of the intestine are closely associated with the severity of diseases related to shrimp and are used to evaluate the health status of shrimp. Overall, we will review the microbes associated with shrimp culture in BFT and their effects on shrimp growth. We will also examine the microbial impacts on the growth performance of L. vannamei in BFT, as well as the close relationship between probiotics and the intestinal microbes of L. vannamei.

Abstract
Fishery utilization of idle saline-alkaline water resources offers various benefits including reducing surrounding soil salinity, improving the ecological environment, increasing arable land area, and providing economic advantages to the fishery industry. However, for decades, the characteristics and regulatory mechanisms of microbial communities that affect fishery utilization have not been clear, which restricts their application. In this study, high-throughput 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing was employed to analyze the bacterial community in these water resources. The sequencing yielded high-quality sequences (2,765,063), resulting in the identification of 18,761 bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Analysis revealed that the type of saline-alkaline water had a more significant influence on the bacterial community compared to seasonal variations within the aquaculture period. The Chao index for saline-alkaline ponds (ASW) was significantly lower (P < 0.05) than for still saline-alkaline water (SSW) and flowing saline-alkaline water (FSW), while the Shannon index for ASW was also significantly lower (P < 0.05) compared to FSW. When comparing ASW to nonaquaculture saline-alkaline water, a decrease in Proteobacteria to 26.87% was noted, particularly α-proteobacteria and γ-proteobacteria, accompanied by a rapid increase in Actinobacteria and Cyanobacteria to 28.60%. Networkx analysis further revealed that ASW significantly increased competition and amensalism from secondary saline-alkaline water microorganisms, resulting in a more solitary bacterial community composition as an adaptive strategy to cope with intense environmental pressures. Key bacterial species such as Pseudomonas, Hydrogenophaga, and Flavobacterium were found to be involved in hydrogen-cycling, nitrogen-cycling, and carbon-cycling, respectively, with all three exhibiting high abundance in FSW. Consequently, FSW demonstrates significant advantages in biogeochemical cycling, pollutant degradation, and the utilization of indigenous probiotic bacteria. Although the surface of abandoned secondary saline-alkaline land was covered with white salt particles, the fishery utilization of saline-alkaline water with low salinity levels (4.0-5.5), and the presence of nitrate and phosphate were identified as primary determinants of bacterial community composition. Nevertheless, a comparison of coastal high-salinity ponds indicated that salinity still selectively affects bacterial communities to some extent. Overall, our study provides valuable insights into the microbial regulation of nitrite during saline-alkaline water aquaculture, thereby aiding in the efficient utilization of secondary saline-alkaline water resources for fisheries.

Abstract
Denitrifying bacteria harboring the nitrate reductase S (nirS) gene convert active nitrogen into molecular nitrogen, and alleviate eutrophication in aquaculture water. Suspended particulate matter (SPM) is an important component of aquaculture water and a carrier for denitrification. SPM with different particle sizes were collected from a coastal high-altitude aquaculture pond in Maoming City, China. Diversity, community structure, abundance of nirS-type denitrifying bacteria on SPM and environmental influencing factors were studied using high-throughput sequencing, fluorescence quantitative PCR, and statistical analysis. Pseudomonas, Halomonas, and Wenzhouxiangella were the dominant genera of nirS-type denitrifying bacteria on SPM from the ponds. Network analysis revealed Pseudomonas and Halomonas as the key genera involved in the interaction of nirS-type denitrifying bacteria on SPM in the ponds. qPCR indicated a trend toward greater nirS gene abundance in progressively larger SPM. Dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature, and SPM particle size were the main environmental factors influencing changes in the nirS-type denitrifying bacterial community on SPM in coastal high-altitude aquaculture pond water. These findings increase our understanding of the microbiology of nitrogen cycle processes in aquaculture ecosystem, and will help optimize aquatic tailwater treatment strategies.

[PMID: 37827459 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
Anthropogenic activities greatly impact nitrogen (N) biogeochemical cycling in aquatic ecosystems. High N concentrations in coastal aquaculture waters threaten fishery production and aquaculture ecosystems and have become an urgent problem to be solved. Existing microbial flora and metabolic potential significantly regulate N turnover in aquatic ecosystems. To clarify the contribution of microorganisms to N turnover in sediment and water, we investigated three types of aquaculture ecosystems in coastal areas of Guangdong, China. Nitrate nitrogen (NO3--N) was the dominant component of total nitrogen in the sediment (interstitial water, 90.4%) and water (61.6%). This finding indicates that NO3--N (1.67-2.86 mg/L and 2.98-7.89 mg/L in the sediment and water) is a major pollutant in aquaculture ecosystems. In water, the relative abundances of assimilation nitrogen reduction and aerobic denitrifying bacteria, as well as the metabolic potentials of nitrogen fixation and dissimilated nitrogen in fish monoculture, were only 61.0%, 31.5%, 47.5%, and 27.2% of fish and shrimp polyculture, respectively. In addition, fish-shrimp polyculture reduced NO3--N content (2.86 mg/L) compared to fish monoculture (7.89 mg/L), which was consistent with changes in aerobic denitrification and nitrate assimilation, suggesting that polyculture could reduce TN concentrations in water bodies and alleviate nitrogen pollution risks. Further analysis via structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed that functional pathways (36% and 31%) explained TN changes better than microbial groups in sediment and water (13% and 11%), suggesting that microbial functional capabilities explain TN better than microbial community composition and other factors (pH, O2, and aquaculture type). This study enhances our understanding of nitrogen pollution characteristics and microbial community and functional capabilities related to sediment-water nitrogen turnover in three types of aquaculture ecosystems, which can contribute to the preservation of healthy coastal ecosystems.

Abstract
The importance of the gut microbiome in the management of various physiological activities including healthy growth and performance of fish and shellfish is now widely considered and being studied in detail for potential applications in aquaculture farming and the future growth of the fish industry. The gut microbiome in all animals including fish is associated with a number of beneficial functions for the host, such as stimulating optimal gastrointestinal development, producing and supplying vitamins to the host, and improving the host's nutrient uptake by providing additional enzymatic activities. Besides nutrient uptake, the gut microbiome is involved in strengthening the immune system and maintaining mucosal tolerance, enhancing the host's resilience against infectious diseases, and the production of anticarcinogenic and anti-inflammatory compounds. Because of its significant role, the gut microbiome is very often considered an "extra organ," as it plays a key role in intestinal development and regulation of other physiological functions. Recent studies suggest that the gut microbiome is involved in energy homeostasis by regulating feeding, digestive and metabolic processes, as well as the immune response. Consequently, deciphering gut microbiome dynamics in cultured fish and shellfish species will play an indispensable role in promoting animal health and aquaculture productivity. It is mentioned that the microbiome community available in the gut tract, particularly in the intestine acts as an innovative source of natural product discovery. The microbial communities that are associated with several marine organisms are the source of natural products with a diverse array of biological activities and as of today, more than 1000 new compounds have been reported from such microbial species. Exploration of such new ingredients from microbial species would create more opportunities for the development of the bio-pharma/aquaculture industries. Considering the important role of the microbiome in the whole life span of fish and shellfish, it is necessary to understand the interaction process between the host and microbial community. However, information pertaining to host-microbiome interaction, particularly at the cellular level, gene expression, metabolic pathways, and immunomodulation mechanisms, the available literature is scanty. It has been reported that there are three ways of interaction involving the host-microbe-environment operates to maintain homeostasis in the fish and shellfish gut i.e. host intrinsic factors, the environment that shapes the gut microbiome composition, and the core microbial community present in the gut system itself has equal influence on the host biology. In the present review, efforts have been made to collect comprehensive information on various aspects of host-microbiome interaction, particularly on the immune system and health maintenance, management of diseases, nutrient uptake, digestion and absorption, gene expression, and metabolism in fish and shellfish.

Abstract
To maintain the health of aquaculture fish, it is critical to understand the composition of microorganisms in aquaculture water and sediment and the factors affecting them. This study examined the water and sediment microbiota compositions of four different types of ponds in South China that were used to culture grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) of different sizes through high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene, and analyzed their correlations with environmental factors. The results showed that ponds with cultured grass carp of different sizes exhibited significant differences in terms of water physicochemical properties and composition of water and sediment microbiota. Furthermore, the exchange of microorganisms between water and sediment microbiota was lowest in ponds with the smallest grass carp and highest in ponds with the largest grass carp. All detected environmental factors except water temperature were significantly correlated with the water microbiota, and all detected environmental factors in the sediment were correlated with sediment microbiota. Moreover, Aeromonas hydrophila and Vibrio were significantly increased in the water microbiota, especially in ponds with small juvenile grass carp, implying an increased risk of A. hydrophila and Vibrio infections in these environments. Our results provide useful information for the management of grass carp aquaculture ponds.

Abstract
Introduction Fluctuations in environmental physicochemical parameters can affect the diversity and prevalence of microbial communities, including vibrios, associated with aquatic species and their surrounding environments. This study aimed to investigate the population dynamics of two Vibrio species as well as the microbial community diversity of whole crab and seawater from the Maryland Coastal Bays (MCBs), using 16S rRNA sequencing. Methods During this study, three crabs and 1 L of seawater were collected monthly from two sites for 3 months. Crab tissue was extracted and pooled for each site. Extracted crab tissue and seawater were analyzed for Vibrio parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus using Most Probable Number (MPN) real-time PCR. For 16S rRNA microbiome analysis, three different DNA extraction kits were evaluated to extract microbial DNA from individual crabs. Also, 500 mL of each seawater sample was filtered for DNA extraction. Results Results indicated that sample types and sampling periods had a significant effect on the alpha diversity of the microbial community of crabs and seawater (p < 0.05); however, no statistical difference was found between DNA extraction kits. Beta diversity analysis also found that the microbial compositions between sample types and temporal distributions were statistically significant. Taxonomic classification revealed that Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes were present in both crab and seawater samples. Vibrio parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus were also detected in both crab and seawater samples, although crabs contained a higher concentration of the bacterium compared to the seawater samples. It was found that vibrios were not a dominant species in the microbial community of crab or seawater samples. Discussion Results from this study provide further insight into species diversity and phylogenetic compositions of blue crabs and seawater from the MCBs. These approaches will help in risk assessments that are essential in the overall advancement of public health.

Abstract
Globally, Penaeus vannamei is the vital species in aquaculture production. Beneficial bacterial exploration of gut, sediment, and water were investigated in P. vannamei culture using Illumina Miseq sequencing of 16S RNA V3-V4 hypervariable regions. Predominant phyla identified were Proteobacteria, Tenericutes, Bacteroidetes in gut; Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Planctomycetes in sediment and Cyanobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Planctomycetes in water. In total, 46 phyla, 509 families and 902 genera; 70 phyla, 735 families and 1255 genera; 55 phyla, 580 families and 996 genera were observed in gut, sediment and water, respectively. Diversity of microbial communities in respect of observed Operational Taxonomic Units, diversity indices (Shannon and Simpson), richness index (Chao1) were significantly high P (<0.05) in 60 DoC in gut and 30 DoC in sediment. Beta diversity indicated separate clusters for bacterial communities in gut, sediment and water samples and formation of distinct community profiles. Core microbiome in P. vannamei rearing ponds over a time consisted of 9, 21, and 20 OTUs in gut, rearing water and sediment, respectively. This study helps to intervene with suitable beneficial microbes to establish an aquaculture system thereby contributes to enhance the productivity, improve water quality and pond bottom condition, and control the pathogenic agents at each stage of the culture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In New-Caledonia, at the end of each shrimp production cycle, earthen ponds are drained and dried to enhance microbial decomposition of nutrient-rich waste trapped in the sediment during the rearing. However, excessive ponds drying may not be suitable for the decomposition activities of microorganisms. Halophytes, salt tolerant plants, naturally grow at vicinity of shrimp ponds; due to their specificity, we explored whether halophytes cultivation during the pond drying period may be suitable for pond bioremediation. In addition, plants are closely associated with microorganisms, which may play a significant role in organic matter decomposition and therefore in bioremediation. Thus, in this study we aimed to determine the impact of 3 halophyte species (Suaeda australis, Sarcocornia quinqueflora and Atriplex jubata) on active sediment microbial communities and their implications on organic matter degradation. RESULTS Drying significantly decreased the microbial diversity index compared to those of wet sediment or sediment with halophytes. Microbial profiles varied significantly over time and according to the experimental conditions (wet, dry sediment or sediment with halophyte species). Halophytes species seemed to promote putative microbial metabolism activities in the sediment. Taxa related to nitrogen removal, carbon mineralisation, sulphur reduction and sulphide oxidation were significant biomarkers in sediment harbouring halophytes and may be relevant for bioremediation. Whereas microbial communities of dry sediment were marked by soil limited-moisture taxa with no identification of microbial metabolic functions. Nitrogen reduction in sediments was evidenced in wet sediment and in sediments with halophytes cultures, along with putative microbial denitrification activities. The greatest nitrogen reduction was observed in halophytes culture. CONCLUSION The efficiency of sediment bioremediation by halophytes appears to be the result of both rhizosphere microbial communities and plant nutrition. Their cultures during the pond drying period may be used as aquaculture diversification by being a sustainable system.

Abstract
Background Aquacultured animals are reared in water hosting various microorganisms with which they are in close relationships during their whole lifecycle as some of these microorganisms can be involved in their host's health or physiology. In aquaculture hatcheries, understanding the interactions existing between the natural seawater microbiota, the rearing water microbiota, the larval stage and the larval health status, may allow the establishment of microbial proxies to monitor the rearing ecosystems. Indeed, these proxies could help to define the optimal microbiota for shrimp larval development and could ultimately help microbial management. Methods In this context, we monitored the daily composition of the active microbiota of the rearing water in a hatchery of the Pacific blue shrimp Penaeus stylirostris. Two distinct rearing conditions were analyzed; one with antibiotics added to the rearing water and one without antibiotics. During this rearing, healthy larvae with a high survival rate and unhealthy larvae with a high mortality rate were observed. Using HiSeq sequencing of the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene of the water microbiota, coupled with zootechnical and statistical analysis, we aimed to distinguish the microbial taxa related to high mortality rates at a given larval stage. Results We highlight that the active microbiota of the rearing water is highly dynamic whatever the larval survival rate. A clear distinction of the microbial composition is shown between the water harboring heathy larvae reared with antibiotics versus the unhealthy larvae reared without antibiotics. However, it is hard to untangle the effects of the antibiotic addition and of the larval death on the active microbiota of the rearing water. Various active taxa of the rearing water are specific to a given larval stage and survival rate except for the zoea with a good survival rate. Comparing these communities to those of the lagoon, it appears that many taxa were originally detected in the natural seawater. This highlights the great importance of the microbial composition of the lagoon on the rearing water microbiota. Considering the larval stage and larval survival we highlight that several genera: Nautella, Leisingera, Ruegerira, Alconivorax, Marinobacter and Tenacibaculum, could be beneficial for the larval survival and may, in the rearing water, overcome the r-strategist microorganisms and/or putative pathogens. Members of these genera might also act as probiotics for the larvae. Marivita, Aestuariicocccus, HIMB11 and Nioella, appeared to be unfavorable for the larval survival and could be associated with upcoming and occurring larval mortalities. All these specific biomarkers of healthy or unhealthy larvae, could be used as early routine detection proxies in the natural seawater and then during the first days of larval rearing, and might help to manage the rearing water microbiota and to select beneficial microorganisms for the larvae.

The characteristics of the intestinal bacterial community from Oreochromis mossambicus and its interaction with microbiota from artificial fishery habitats. BMC Ecol Evol 2023; 23:16. [PMID: 37158858 PMCID: PMC10165841 DOI: 10.1186/s12862-023-02120-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Artificial habitats can allow many fish to flock together and interact and have been widely used to restore and protect fishery resources. The piece of research intends to elucidate the relationship of microbial communities between tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) intestines and artificial fishery habitats (water and sediments). Hence, 16 S rDNA sequencing technology was used to study the bacterial communities from intestines, water, and sediments. RESULTS The results showed that the tilapia intestines had the lowest richness of Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) and the lowest diversity of the bacterial community compared to water and sediments. The intestine, water, and sediment microbial communities shared many OTUs. Overall, 663 shared OTUs were identified from the tilapia intestines (76.20%), the surrounding water (71.14%), and sediment (56.86%) in artificial habitats. However, there were unique OTUs that were detected in different sample types. There were 81, 77 and 112 unique OTUs observed in tilapia intestines, the surrounding water and sediment, respectively. Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, Fusobacteria, and Bacteroidetes were the most common and dominant bacterial phyla between the tilapia intestines and habitats. In the two groups, the microbial communities were similar in the taxonomic composition but different in the abundance of bacterial phyla. Interestingly, Firmicutes increased, while Fusobacteria decreased in artificial habitats. These findings indicated that the artificial habitats had fewer effects on the water environment and indicated that the mode of artificial habitats could have an effect on the enriched bacteria in the tilapia intestines. CONCLUSIONS This study analysed the bacterial communities of artificial habitats from the intestines, water, and sediments, which can explain the relationship between the tilapia intestines and habitats and strengthen the value of ecological services provided by artificial habitats.

Abstract
Microbial communities play a critical role in aquaculture ecosystems. To identify the influence of sediment nutrient levels on microbial communities, sediment and water samples were collected from Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis culture ponds with different nutrient enrichment levels. Relevant physicochemical properties were measured, and 16 S rRNA gene sequencing was applied to identify relevant bacterial communities in the sediments. The results showed that the diversity and composition of microbial communities in sediments with different levels of nutrient enrichment varied considerably. Proteobacteria was the most abundant phylum in all samples, followed by Bacteroidetes, and Desulfobacterota with relative abundances of 23.5-40.9%, 9.8-21.5%, and 9.6-18.1%, respectively. Notably, total nitrogen (TN), organic matter (OM), and pH were important factors driving sediment bacterial community aggregation, the TN concentration explaining 61.5% of the microbial community variation. This study highlights that long-term culture activities alter the degree of sediment nutrient enrichment, which in turn affects microbial community composition and may ultimately have an impact on culture efficiency.

Abstract
Introduction Decapod iridescent virus 1 (DIV1) has caused severe economic losses in shrimp aquaculture. So far, Researchs on DIV1-infected shrimp have mainly focused on the hemocytes immune response, while studies on the host-intestine microbiota interactions during DIV1 infection have been scarce. Methods This study determined the lethal concentration 50 (LC50) of DIV1 to Metapenaeus ensis, preliminarily determining that M. ensis could serve as a susceptible object for DIV1. The interactions and responses between the immune and intestine microbiota of shrimp under DIV1 infection were also investigated. Results and Discussion DIV1 infection decreases intestine bacterial diversity and alters the composition of intestine microbiota. Specifically, DIV1 infection decreases the abundance of potentially beneficial bacteria (Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria), and significantly increases the abundance of pathogenic bacteria such as Vibrio and Photobacterium, thereby increasing the risk of secondary bacterial infections. The results of PICRUSt functional prediction showed that altered intestine microbiota induces host metabolism disorders, which could be attributed to the bioenergetic and biosynthetic requirements for DIV1 replication in shrimp. The comparative transcriptomic analysis showed that some metabolic pathways related to host immunity were significantly activated following DIV1 infection, including ncRNA processing and metabolic process, Ascorbate and aldarate metabolism, and Arachidonic acid metabolism. M. ensis may against DIV1 infection by enhancing the expression of some immune-related genes, such as Wnt16, heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) and C-type lectin 3 (Ctl3). Notably, correlation analysis of intestinal microbial variation with host immunity showed that expansion of pathogenic bacteria (Vibrio and Photobacterium) in DIV1 infection could increased the expression of NF-κB inhibitors cactus-like and Toll interacting protein (Tollip), which may limit the TLR-mediated immune response and ultimately lead to further DIV1 infection. Significance and Impact of the Study This study enhances our understanding of the interactions between shrimp immunity and intestinal microbiota. The ultimate goal is to develop novel immune enhancers for shrimp and formulate a safe and effective DIV1 defense strategy.

Microbiota of the Rearing Water of Penaeus stylirostris Larvae Influenced by Lagoon Seawater and Specific Key Microbial Lineages of Larval Stage and Survival. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0424122. [PMID: 36416556 PMCID: PMC9769815 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.04241-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Aquacultured animals are reared in water, where they interact with microorganisms which can be involved in their development, immunity, and disease. It is therefore interesting to study the rearing water microbiota, especially in the hatcheries of the Pacific blue shrimp Penaeus stylirostris, where larval mass mortalities occur. In this study, using HiSeq sequencing of the V4 region of the 16S rRNA molecule coupled with zootechnical and chemical analyses, we investigated whether any microbial lineages could be associated with certain mortality rates at a given larval stage. Our results indicate that the active microbiota of the rearing water was highly dynamic throughout the rearing process, with distinct communities influenced by progressive water eutrophication, larval stage, and survival rate. Our data also highlighted the role of the lagoon seawater on the rearing water microbiome, as many operational taxonomic units (OTUs) specific to a given larval stage and survival rate were detected in the primary reservoir which contained the lagoon water. We also identified biomarkers specific to water eutrophication, with Alteromonadaceae, Vibrionaceae, and Methylophilaceae, respectively, linked to increases in ammonia, nitrogen, and soluble reactive phosphate, or to increases in colored dissolved organic matter in the rearing water; other biomarkers were specific to certain larval stages and survival rates. Indeed, the Marinobacteraceae were specific to the Nauplii, and the Thalassospiraceae and Saprospiraceae to the Zoea Good condition; when mortality occurred, the Litoricolaceae were specific to the Zoea Bad, Microbacteraceae to the Mysis Bad, and Methylophilaceae to the Mysis Worst condition. Thus, these biomarkers might be used as potential early warning sentinels in water storage to infer the evolution of larval rearing to improve shrimp larval rearing. IMPORTANCE In New Caledonia, rearing of P. stylirostris is one of the main economic activities; unfortunately, mass larval mortalities cause important production decreases, involving major economic losses for the farmers and the Territory. This phenomenon, which has occurred at any larval stage over the past decade, is poorly understood. The significance of our research is in the identification of biomarkers specific to larval stage and survival rate, with some of these biomarkers being already present in the lagoon water. This enhances the role of the lagoon on the active microbiota of the rearing water at various larval stages and survival rates. Together, our results help us understand which active microbial communities are present in the rearing water according to larval stage and health. This might lead to broader impacts on hatcheries by helping to develop useful tools for using the water-lagoon, reservoir, or rearing-to test for the presence of these biomarkers as an early monitoring strategy.

Abstract
Intestinal autochthonous bacteria play important roles in the maintenance of the physiological homeostasis of animals, especially contributing to the host immune system. In the present study, the variation of autochthonous bacterial community in the intestinal tract of 2-7 months-old tiger pufferfish Takifugu rubripes and bacterial communities in the seawater of recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) and the following offshore sea cage aquaculture system (OSCS) were analyzed during the aquaculture period from May to October 2021. Proteobacteria was found to be the most dominant phyla in both intestinal and seawater bacterial communities, which accounted for 68.82% and 65.65% of the total bacterial abundance, respectively. Arcobacter was the most core bacterial taxon in the intestinal bacterial community, with the most dominant abundance (42.89%) at the genus level and dominant positions in co-occurrence relationships with other bacterial taxa (node-betweenness value of 150). Enterococcaceae was specifically enriched in the intestinal bacterial community of pufferfishes from RAS, while Vibrionaceae was enriched in the intestinal bacterial community from OSCS. The F-values of beta diversity analysis between intestinal and seawater bacterial communities generally increased from May (6.69) to October (32.32), indicating the increasing differences between the intestinal and seawater bacterial communities along with the aquaculture process. Four bacterial taxa of Weissella sp., Akkermansia muciniphila, Dietzia sp. and Psychrobacter pacificensis had significant correlations with immune response parameters, and they were suggested to be the indicators for immune status and pathological process of pufferfish. The knowledge about the specific core bacteria, potentially pathogenic bacteria and the change of bacterial community in the intestinal tract of cultured pufferfish is of great scientific significance and will contribute to the understanding of intestinal bacterial homeostasis and biosecurity practice in pufferfish aquaculture.

Abstract
The rise of "new" sequencing technologies and the development of sophisticated bioinformatics tools have dramatically increased the study of the aquaculture microbiome. Microbial communities exist in complex and dynamic communities that play a vital role in the stability of healthy ecosystems. The gut microbiome contributes to multiple aspects of the host's physiological health status, ranging from nutritional regulation to immune modulation. Although studies of the gut microbiome in aquaculture are growing rapidly, the interrelationships between the aquaculture microbiome and its aquatic environment have not been discussed and summarized. In particular, few reviews have focused on the potential mechanisms driving the alteration of the gut microbiome by surrounding aquatic environmental factors. Here, we review current knowledge on the host gut microbiome and its interrelationship with the microbiome of the surrounding environment, mainly including the main methods for characterizing the gut microbiome, the composition and function of microbial communities, the dynamics of microbial interactions, and the relationship between the gut microbiome and the surrounding water/sediment microbiome. Our review highlights two potential mechanisms for how surrounding aquatic environmental factors drive the gut microbiome. This may deepen the understanding of the interactions between the microbiome and environmental factors. Lastly, we also briefly describe the research gaps in current knowledge and prospects for the future orientation of research. This review provides a framework for studying the complex relationship between the host gut microbiome and environmental stresses to better facilitate the widespread application of microbiome technologies in fisheries and aquaculture.

Abstract
Milky disease caused by Metschnikowia bicuspidata fungus has significantly harmed the Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis aquaculture industry. However, the effect of M. bicuspidata infection on the metabolism and intestinal flora of the crab remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to explore the changes in the metabolism and intestinal flora E. sinensis after 48 h of infection with M. bicuspidata, using metabolomic and metagenomic analyses. Metabolomic analysis results revealed 420 significantly different metabolites between the infected and control groups, and these metabolites were enriched in 58 metabolic pathways. M. bicuspidata infection decreased the levels of metabolites related to amino acid biosynthesis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, as well as lysine, histidine, linolenic, arachidonic, and linoleic acid metabolism. These results indicated that M. bicuspidata infection significantly affected the energy metabolism, growth, and immunity of E. sinensis. The results of metagenomic analysis showed that the anaerobes and ascomycetes populations significantly increased and decreased, respectively, after M. bicuspidata infection. These changes in intestinal flora significantly upregulated metabolic and synthetic pathways while downregulating immunity-related pathways. The results of integrated metabolomic and metagenomic analyses showed that 55 differentially expressed genes and 28 operational taxonomic units were correlated with 420 differential metabolites. Thus, the intestinal flora changes caused by M. bicuspidata infection also affected the metabolites. This study provides novel insights into the metabolic-and intestinal microflora-based effects of M. bicuspidata infection in E. sinensis, as well as a theoretical basis for the interaction between fungi and crustaceans.

Microbiome analysis reveals microecological advantages of emerging ditchless rice-crayfish co-culture mode. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:892026.

Abstract
Ditchless rice-crayfish co-culture is an emerging model of rice-crayfish farming that circumvents the potential hazards of digging ditches in traditional rice-crayfish farming. However, due to the complex interactions among crayfish, ambient microbiota, and environmental variables, it is necessary to assess the differences in bacterial structure between ditchless and traditional rice-crayfish culture. In this study, the crayfish culture area in the Sichuan basin was selected as the study area, and the bacterial communities of two rice-crayfish culture systems were compared by high-throughput sequencing of 16S rDNA. The results showed that the ditchless system had lower water depth, higher dissolved oxygen, lower total ammonia nitrogen and lower morbidity. There are intuitive differences in the composition of environmental bacterial communities due to environmental changes, even if they are similar in composition at the phylum level. Microbiota in sediments from ditchless systems appear to produce less ammonia nitrogen. The abundance of the pathogens colonizing the intestine of ditchless crayfish was lower than ditched one, and the composition was similar to water. Ditch-farmed crayfish appear to be more susceptible to environmental microbes and have a more fragile intestinal structure. Water depth and dissolved oxygen are the main environmental factors that determine the distribution of microbiota. This study is the first to investigate the bacterial ecology of a ditchless rice- crayfish farming system. The results show that the ditchless rice-crayfish culture model has a more superior bacterial system than the traditional rice-crayfish culture.

Microbiome of Penaeus vannamei Larvae and Potential Biomarkers Associated With High and Low Survival in Shrimp Hatchery Tanks Affected by Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:838640. [PMID: 35615516 PMCID: PMC9125206 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.838640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) is an emerging bacterial disease of cultured shrimp caused mainly by Vibrio parahaemolyticus, which harbors the lethal PirAB toxin genes. Although Penaeus vannamei (P. vannamei) postlarvae are susceptible to AHPND, the changes in the bacterial communities through the larval stages affected by the disease are unknown. We characterized, through high-throughput sequencing, the microbiome of P. vannamei larvae infected with AHPND-causing bacteria through the larval stages and compared the microbiome of larvae collected from high- and low-survival tanks. A total of 64 tanks from a commercial hatchery were sampled at mysis 3, postlarvae 4, postlarvae 7, and postlarvae 10 stages. PirAB toxin genes were detected by PCR and confirmed by histopathology analysis in 58 tanks. Seven from the 58 AHPND-positive tanks exhibited a survival rate higher than 60% at harvest, despite the AHPND affectation, being selected for further analysis, whereas 51 tanks exhibited survival rates lower than 60%. A random sample of 7 out of these 51 AHPND-positive tanks was also selected. Samples collected from the selected tanks were processed for the microbiome analysis. The V3–V4 hypervariable regions of the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene of the samples collected from both the groups were sequenced. The Shannon diversity index was significantly lower at the low-survival tanks. The microbiomes were significantly different between high- and low-survival tanks at M3, PL4, PL7, but not at PL10. Differential abundance analysis determined that biomarkers associated with high and low survival in shrimp hatchery tanks affected with AHPND. The genera Bacillus, Vibrio, Yangia, Roseobacter, Tenacibaculum, Bdellovibrio, Mameliella, and Cognatishimia, among others, were enriched in the high-survival tanks. On the other hand, Gilvibacter, Marinibacterium, Spongiimonas, Catenococcus, and Sneathiella, among others, were enriched in the low-survival tanks. The results can be used to develop applications to prevent losses in shrimp hatchery tanks affected by AHPND.

NPJ Biofilms Microbiomes 2022; 8:22. [PMID: 35410335 PMCID: PMC9001642 DOI: 10.1038/s41522-022-00288-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Sucrose is an effective carbon source for creating more reliable and environmentally friendly conditions for shrimp growth by regulating bacteria in biofloc-based culture systems. However, the influence of sucrose addition on the interaction, co-occurrence networks, and assembly mechanisms of bacterial communities in biofloc-based culture systems remains largely unknown. Here, we comprehensively investigated the effects of sucrose addition on bacterial communities in three habitats (water, bioflocs, and gut). The bacterial community structures and compositions of these three habitats became more similar in groups with sucrose addition, compared with those in controls. More than 50% gut bacterial communities were mainly derived from water and biofloc communities in the sucrose addition groups, but only about 33% bacterial communities migrated from water and biofloc to the gut in the control culture system. Sucrose addition accordantly enriched core taxa belonging to the phylum Actinobacteria and the families Rhodobacteraceae and Flavobacteriaceae in water, biofloc, and gut habitats. These core taxa were important for maintaining bacterial network stability in the sucrose addition culture systems and some were identified as keystone taxa for improving shrimp growth. Furthermore, after sucrose addition, gut bacterial community assembly from water and biofloc was dominated by the heterogeneous select with the ratios of 55-91% and 67-83%, respectively, indicating that sucrose addition can directionally shape the bacterial assembly of the shrimp culture system. These results provide a basis for selectively regulating certain beneficial taxa to improve shrimp growth in culture systems.

Effects of Ambient Microbiota on the Gut Microbiota of Macrobrachium Rosenbergii. WATER 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/w14040658] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
The gut microbiota (GM) compositions of aquatic animals are influenced by microorganisms in ambient water and sediment. However, the extent to which environmental microorganisms can affect shrimp GM composition is unknown. We analyzed the impact of water and sediment microorganisms on the GM of Macrobrachium rosenbergii at different growth stages. We collected water, sediment, and M. rosenbergii gut samples at the early, middle, and late stages of an M. rosenbergii culture and analyzed the microbiota composition. The shrimps’ body weight differed significantly between sampling stages. The shrimp GM composition differed significantly from that of the ambient water and sediment, and these differences were remarkably stronger than those between the shrimp GM at different sampling times and in different ponds. The proportion of sediment bacteria in the shrimp GM was approximately three times higher than that of water bacteria, which changed among ponds and over sampling time. These results provide important reference information for a deeper understanding of the impact of environmental microorganisms on the composition of shrimp GM. Moreover, the results also provide reference information for increasing the production of shrimp culture as well as ensuring a good health status of the culture.

Metagenomic Insights into the Structure of Microbial Communities Involved in Nitrogen Cycling in Two Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture (IMTA) Ponds. JOURNAL OF MARINE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING 2022.

Abstract
The microbial structure and metabolic potential, particularly with regard to nitrogen (N) cycling, in integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) ponds with shrimp remain unclear. In this study, an analysis of microbial community taxonomic diversity and a metagenomic analysis of N-related genes were performed in a shrimp-crab pond (Penaeus japonicus-Portunus trituberculatus, SC) and a shrimp-crab-clam pond (P. japonicus-P. trituberculatus-Sinonovacula constricta, SCC) to evaluate microbial structure and N transformation capacities in these two shrimp IMTA ponds. The composition of the microbial communities was similar between SC and SCC, but the water and sediments shared few common members in either pond. The relative abundances of N cycling genes were significantly higher in sediment than in water in both SC and SCC, except for assimilatory nitrate reduction genes. The main drivers of the differences in the relative abundances of N cycling genes in SC and SCC were salinity and pH in water and the NO2− and NH4+ contents of pore water in sediment. These results indicate that the coculture of S. constricta in a shrimp-crab pond may result in decreased N cycling in sediment. The reduced N flux in the shrimp IMTA ponds primarily originates within the sediment, except for assimilatory nitrate reduction.

Abstract
Intestinal microbiota plays key roles in maintaining the health and homeostasis of the host. However, information about whether the formation of intestinal microbiota of wild aquatic animals is associated with habitat microbes is not fully understood. Here, intestine samples were collected from two wild crab species and sediment samples were collected from the habitat environment. The total DNA of each sample was extracted, and the V3–V4 regions of 16S rRNA were sequenced using the MiSeq platform. The purpose of this study was to investigate the composition and diversity of intestinal microbiota and habitat microbes, and bacterial community relationships between wild crab intestine and habitat sediment. In the present study, the composition and diversity of intestinal microbiota of the two crab species were different from the habitat microbes. In contrast, a similar composition and diversity of the intestinal microbiota were observed between two crab species. Moreover, the bacterial community relationships between crab intestine and habitat sediment were associated with intestinal regions. Further network analysis revealed that the network structure of the intestinal microbiota was not only associated with intestinal regions, but also with the crab species. Additionally, although the compositions of bacterial functions were similar between crab intestine and sediment, no significant correlation in bacterial functions was observed between crab intestine and sediment. The findings of the present study would contribute to understanding the relationship between intestinal microbiota of wild aquatic animal and habitat microbes, and providing new insights into the intestinal microbiota of wild aquatic animals.

Abstract
Intensive studies have evaluated abiotic factors in shaping host gut microbiota. In contrast, little is known on how and to what extent abiotic (geochemical variables) and biotic (i.e., surrounding microbes, younger shrimp, and age) factors assemble the gut microbiota over shrimp ontogeny. Considering the functional importance of gut microbiota in improving host fitness, this knowledge is fundamental to sustain a desirable gut microbiota for a healthy aquaculture. Here, we characterized the successional rules of both the shrimp gut and rearing water bacterial communities over the entire shrimp farming. Both the gut and rearing water bacterial communities exhibited the time decay of similarity relationship, with significantly lower temporal turnover rate for the gut microbiota, which were primarily governed by shrimp age (days postlarval inoculation) and water pH. Gut commensals were primary sourced (averaged 60.3%) from their younger host, rather than surrounding bacterioplankton (19.1%). A structural equation model revealed that water salinity, pH, total phosphorus, and dissolve oxygen directly governed bacterioplankton communities but not for the gut microbiota. In addition, shrimp gut microbiota did not simply mirror the rearing bacterioplankton communities. The gut microbiota tended to be governed by variable selection over shrimp ontogeny, while the rearing bacterioplankton community was shaped by homogeneous selection. However, the determinism of rare and stochasticity of abundant subcommunities were consistent between shrimp gut and rearing water. These findings highlight the importance of independently interpreting host-associated and free-living communities, as well as their rare and abundant subcommunities for a comprehensive understanding of the ecological processes that govern microbial successions.

Abstract
Artificial fishery habitats have been extensively used for fishery resource protection and water habitat restoration, and they could attract a large number of omnivorous fishes to gather together. This study intended to reveal the relationship between bacterial communities in the habitats (water and sediment) and intestines of omnivorous fishes (Oreochromis mossambicus, Toxabramis houdemeri and Hemiculter leucisculus). Therefore, we investigated the bacterial communities of samples collected from intestines, water, and sediments in artificial fishery habitats via 16S rRNA metabarcoding high-throughput sequencing technology. The results showed that there were significant differences in the composition, core indicators, diversity and prediction functions in water, sediments, and intestinal microbial communities of the three omnivorous fish. The microbial diversities were significantly higher in habitats than in intestines. The analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) and nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) results indicated that the intestine microbial communities (T. houdemeri and H. leucisculus) were more similar to the water microbiota, but the intestine microbial communities (O. mossambicus) were more similar to the sediments. Source tracking analysis also confirmed that the contribution of habitat characteristics to omnivorous fish intestinal microorganisms was different; the sediment had a greater contribution than water to the intestinal microbiota of O. mossambicus, which was consistent with their benthic habit. Moreover, the functional prediction results showed that there were unique core indicators and functions between the bacterial community of habitats and intestines. Altogether, these results can enhance our understanding of the bacterial composition and functions about omnivorous fish intestines and their living with habitats, which have provided new information for the ecological benefits of artificial fishery habitats from the perspective of bacterial ecology and contributed to apply artificial fishery habitats in more rivers.

Abstract
Intestinal bacteria are crucial for the healthy aquaculture of Litopenaeus vannamei, and the coastal areas of China are important areas for concentrated L. vannamei cultivation. In this study, we evaluated different compositions and structures, key roles, and functional potentials of the intestinal bacterial community of L. vannamei shrimp collected in 12 Chinese coastal cities and investigated the correlation between the intestinal bacteria and functional potentials. The dominant bacteria in the shrimp intestines included Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Tenericutes, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria, and the main potential functions were metabolism, genetic information processing, and environmental information processing. Although the composition and structure of the intestinal bacterial community, potential pathogenic bacteria, and spoilage organisms varied from region to region, the functional potentials were homeostatic and significantly (p < 0.05) correlated with intestinal bacteria (at the family level) to different degrees. The correlation between intestinal bacteria and functional potentials further suggested that L. vannamei had sufficient functional redundancy to maintain its own health. These findings help us understand differences among the intestinal bacterial communities of L. vannamei cultivated in different regions and provide a basis for the disease management and healthy aquaculture of L. vannamei.

Connection between the Gut Microbiota of Largemouth Bass ( Micropterus salmoides) and Microbiota of the Pond Culture Environment. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9081770. [PMID: 34442849 PMCID: PMC8402112 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms9081770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2021] [Revised: 08/15/2021] [Accepted: 08/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
The vital role of the gut microbiota in fish growth, development, immunity, and health has been largely confirmed. However, the interaction between environmental microbiota and the gut microbiota of aquaculture species remains unclear. Therefore, we analyzed the gut microbiota of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) collected from subtropical ponds in southern China, as well as the pond water and aquatic sediment microbiota, using high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene. Our results demonstrated significant differences in the compositions of pond water, sediment, and the gut microbiota of largemouth bass. Moreover, these compositions changed throughout the culture period. Only approximately 1% of the bacterial species in the pond sediment and gut microbiota were exchanged. However, the bacterial proportion of the gut microbiota from pond water microbiota was approximately 7% in samples collected in June and August, which increased markedly to 73% in October. Similarly, the proportion of bacteria in the pond water microbiota from the gut microbiota was approximately 12% in June and August, which increased to 45% in October. The study findings provide basic information for understanding the interactions between environmental microbiota and the gut microbiota of cultured fish, which may contribute to improved pond culture practices for largemouth bass.

Abstract
The microbiome actually deals with micro-organisms that are associated with indigenous body parts and the entire gut system in all animals, including human beings. These microbes are linked with roles involving hereditary traits, defence against diseases and strengthening overall immunity, which determines the health status of an organism. Considerable efforts have been made to find out the microbiome diversity and their taxonomic identification in finfish and shellfish and its importance has been correlated with various physiological functions and activities. In recent past due to the availability of advanced molecular tools, some efforts have also been made on DNA sequencing of these microbes to understand the environmental impact and other stress factors on their genomic structural profile. There are reports on the use of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, including amplicon and shot-gun approaches, and associated bioinformatics tools to count and classify commensal microbiome at the species level. The microbiome present in the whole body, particularly in the gut systems of finfish and shellfish, not only contributes to digestion but also has an impact on nutrition, growth, reproduction, immune system and vulnerability of the host fish to diseases. Therefore, the study of such microbial communities is highly relevant for the development of new and innovative bio-products which will be a vital source to build bio and pharmaceutical industries, including aquaculture. In recent years, attempts have been made to discover the chemical ingredients present in these microbes in the form of biomolecules/bioactive compounds with their functions and usefulness for various health benefits, particularly for the treatment of different types of disorders in animals. Therefore, it has been speculated that microbiomes hold great promise not only as a cure for ailments but also as a preventive measure for the number of infectious diseases. This kind of exploration of new breeds of microbes with their miraculous ingredients will definitely help to accelerate the development of the drugs, pharmaceutical and other biological related industries. Probiotic research and bioinformatics skills will further escalate these opportunities in the sector. In the present review, efforts have been made to collect comprehensive information on the finfish and shellfish microbiome, their diversity and functional properties, relationship with diseases, health status, data on species-specific metagenomics, probiotic research and bioinformatics skills. Further, emphasis has also been made to carry out microbiome research on priority basis not only to keep healthy environment of the fish farming sector but also for the sustainable growth of biological related industries, including aquaculture.

MARINE BIOTECHNOLOGY (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2021; 23:671-681. [PMID: 34414527 DOI: 10.1007/s10126-021-10056-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 08/09/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The acclimation of a nitrifying biofilter is a crucial and time-consuming task for setting up a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS). Gaining a better understanding of the dynamics of the microbial community during the acclimation period in the system could be useful for the development of mature nitrifying biofilters. In this study, high-throughput DNA sequencing was applied to monitor the microbial communities on a biofilter during the acclimation period (7 weeks) in high (100 mg N/L) and low (5 mg N/L) total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) treatments. Both treatments were successful for developing a mature nitrifying biofilter, dominated by Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Nitrospirae. Complete nitrification was found after 7 days of biofilter acclimation as indicated by decreasing TAN concentration, increasing nitrate concentration, and high abundances of the nitrifying bacteria, Nitrosomonadaceae and Nitrospiraceae. The beta diversity analysis of microbial communities showed different clustering of the samples between high and low TAN treatment groups. A greater abundance of nitrifying bacteria was found in the high TAN treatments (27-51%) than in the low TAN treatment (15-29%). The bacterial diversity in biofilters acclimated at high TAN concentration (Shannon's index 5.40-6.15) were lower than those found at low TAN treatment levels (Shannon's index 6.40-7.01). The higher diversity in biofilters acclimated at low TAN concentrations, consisting of Planctomycetes and Archaea, might benefit the nutrient recycling in the system. Although nitrification activity was observed from the first week of the acclimation period, the acclimation period should be taken as at least 6 weeks for full development of nitrifying biofilm. Moreover, the reduction of potentially pathogenic Vibrio on biofilters was found at that period.

Abstract
The interaction between the microbial communities in aquatic animals and those in the ambient environment is important for both healthy aquatic animals and the ecological balance of aquatic environment. Crayfish (Procambarus clarkii), with their high commercial value, have become the highest-yield freshwater shrimp in China. The traditional cultivation in ponds (i.e., monoculture, MC) and emerging cultivation in rice co-culture fields (i.e., rice–crayfish co-culture, RC) are the two main breeding modes for crayfish, and the integrated RC is considered to be a successful rice-livestock integration practice in eco-agricultural systems. This study explored the ecological interactions between the microbial communities in crayfish intestine and the ambient environment, which have not been fully described to date. The bacterial communities in crayfish intestine, the surrounding water, and sediment in the two main crayfish breeding modes were analyzed with MiSeq sequencing and genetic networks. In total, 53 phyla and 1,206 genera were identified, among which Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Tenericutes, Firmicutes, Cyanobacteria, Chloroflexi, Bacteroidetes, Acidobacteria, RsaHF231, and Nitrospirae were the dominant phyla. The microbiota composition significantly differed between the water, sediment, and crayfish intestine, while it did not between the two breeding modes. We also generated a co-occurrence correlation network based on the high-confidence interactions with Spearman correlation ρ ≥ 0.75. In the genera co-correlation network, 95 nodes and 1,158 edges were identified, indicating significant genera interactions between crayfish intestine and the environment. Furthermore, the genera clustered into three modules, based on the different environments. Additionally, Candidatus_Bacilloplasma, g_norank_f_Steroidobacteraceae, Dinghuibacter, Hydrogenophaga, Methyloparacoccus, and Defluviicoccus had the highest betweenness centrality and might be important in the interaction between crayfish and the ambient environment. Overall, this study enhances our understanding of the characteristics of the microbiota in crayfish and their surrounding environment. Moreover, our findings provide insights into the microecological balance in crayfish eco-agricultural systems and theoretical reference for the development of such systems.

Abstract
Sediment environments harbor a repertoire of microorganisms that contribute to animal health and the microecosystem in aquaculture ecosystems, but their community diversity and the potential factors that control it remain unclear. Here, we applied 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to investigate bacterial diversity and assembly mechanisms in the sediments of shrimp cultural ponds at the mesoscale. Our results showed that sediment bacterial communities contained 10,333 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) but had only 34 core OTUs and that the relative abundances of these core OTUs were significantly correlated with the physicochemical properties of the sediments. Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Cyanobacteria, Acidobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Ignavibacteriae, Spirochaetae and Planctomycetes were the ten most abundant bacterial phyla. Notably, some opportunistic pathogens (e.g. Vibrio and Photobacterium) and potential functional microbes (e.g. Nitrospira, Nitrosomonas, Desulfobulbus and Desulfuromusa) were widely distributed in shrimp cultural pond sediments. More importantly, we found that there was a significant negative but weak distance-decay relationship among bacterial communities in shrimp culture pond sediments at the mesoscale, and that the spatial turnover of these bacterial communities appeared to be largely driven by stochastic processes. Additionally, environmental factors, such as pH and total nitrogen, also played important roles in influencing the sediment bacterial structure. Our findings enhance our understanding of microbial ecology in aquatic ecosystems and facilitate sediment microbiota management in aquaculture. KEY POINTS: • Core bacterial taxa in cultural pond sediments contributed to the shrimp health and element cycling. • There was a significant negative distance-decay relationship among bacterial communities in shrimp culture pond sediments at the mesoscale, and its spatial turnover appeared to be largely driven by stochastic processes. • Environmental factors (e.g. pH and total nitrogen) played important roles in influencing bacterial structure in shrimp cultural pond sediments.

Abstract
Water quality parameter dynamics, gut, sediment and water bacteria communities were studied to understand the environmental influence on the gut microbial community of a new strain of Huanghe common carp. A total of 3,384,078 raw tags and 5105 OTUs were obtained for the gut, water and sediment bacteria. The water quality had a stronger influence on the water bacteria community than gut and sediment bacteria communities. The ambient water quality parameters also significantly influenced the water and sediment bacteria communities. Comparing the gut, sediment, and water microbial communities, a relationship was found among them. However, gut bacteria were more closely related to sediment bacterial communities than to water bacteria communities. The results showed that the top three bacterial taxa were identical in gut and sediment samples in the early days of rearing. Interestingly, bacterial communities in the carp gut, water, and sediment had different adaptabilities to variations in environmental factors.

Abstract
The microplastics pollution in wild aquatic organisms has been described by many studies. However, few studies focused on the farmed ones and MPs impacts on their gut microbiota under natural conditions. Here, we present the first detection of MPs in shrimp ponds and Litopenaeus vannamei. We also globally, firstly and preliminarily investigate the association between colonization of microorganism on MPs and intestinal microbiota under natural conditions. Microplastics (5129 ± 1176 items/kg d.w.) in sediments were mainly pellets, mostly white and blue, and in size less than 1 mm. Microplastics (14.08 ± 5.70 items/g w.w.) in shrimps were higher than that in mostly wild aquatic organisms and positively correlated with that in sediments. Blue fibers in small size (<0.5 mm) were dominant in shrimps. The bacterial communities and their microbial function on MPs were similar with that in shrimp gut, with higher diversity and richness in bacteria communities colonized on MPs. Network analysis demonstrated that the colonization of microorganism on MPs were associated with shrimp intestinal microbiota. Results suggest that except for toxicity reported previously, the effects on intestinal microbiota induced by MPs were possibly because of the biofilm on their surfaces as well, causing notable impacts on aquatic animals.

Abstract
In the United States, farm-raised shrimp accounts for ~ 80% of the market share. Farmed shrimp are cultivated as monoculture and are susceptible to infections. The aquaculture industry is dependent on the application of antibiotics for disease prevention, resulting in the selection of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. We aimed to characterize the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and gut microbiome communities in commercially available shrimp. Thirty-one raw and cooked shrimp samples were purchased from supermarkets in Florida and Georgia (U.S.) between March-September 2019. The samples were processed for the isolation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and isolates were characterized using an array of molecular and antibiotic susceptibility tests. Aerobic plate counts of the cooked samples (n = 13) varied from < 25 to 6.2 log CFU/g. Isolates obtained (n = 110) were spread across 18 genera, comprised of coliforms and opportunistic pathogens. Interestingly, isolates from cooked shrimp showed higher resistance towards chloramphenicol (18.6%) and tetracycline (20%), while those from raw shrimp exhibited low levels of resistance towards nalidixic acid (10%) and tetracycline (8.2%). Compared to wild-caught shrimp, the imported farm-raised shrimp harbored distinct gut microbiota communities and a higher prevalence of antibiotic-resistance genes in their gut. The presence of antibiotic-resistant strains in cooked shrimps calls for change in processing for their mitigation.

Abstract
Aquaculture is one of the fastest-growing economic activities worldwide; shrimp production by aquaculture is around 70% or more of the total consumed. The development of this activity is inducing great benefits in the production of food and jobs; however, shrimp aquaculture is also generating; (1) ecological imbalance by pelagic species overexploitation to produce fish ingredients, (2) bays contamination by inappropriate waste management and (3) pathogens proliferation by antibiotics abuse. In this sense, a significant number of regulations and legal restrictions have been imposed; thus, aquaculture is no longer considered a profitable activity. Therefore, significant and innovative technologies need to be applied to ensure the sustainability and profitability of this activity. In this sense, probiotic bacteria are being used in aquaculture to improve feed intake, modulate gut microbiota and control pathogen proliferation. This work summarizes the results from researchers who worked extensively to show how probiotic bacteria can improve shrimp aquaculture development.

Abstract
Intestine microbiota is tightly associated with host health status. Increasing studies have focused on assessing how host intestine microbiota is affected by biotic factors but ignored abiotic factors. Here, we aimed to understand the effects of salinity on shrimp intestine microbiota, by comparing the differences of intestine bacterial signatures of shrimp under low-salinity (LS) and high-salinity (HS) culture conditions. Our results found that intestine core bacterial taxa of shrimp under LS and HS culture conditions were different and that under HS contained more opportunistic pathogen species. Notably, compared with LS culture conditions, opportunistic pathogens (e.g., Vibrio species) were enriched in shrimp intestine under HS. Network analysis revealed that shrimp under HS culture conditions exhibited less connected and lower competitive intestine bacterial interspecies interactions compared with LS. In addition, under HS culture conditions, several opportunistic pathogens were identified as keystone species of intestine bacterial network in shrimp. Furthermore, the ecological drift process played a more important role in the intestine bacterial assembly of shrimp under HS culture conditions than that under LS. These above traits regarding the intestine microbiota of shrimp under HS culture conditions might lead to host at a higher risk of disease. Collectively, this work aids our understanding of the effects of salinity on shrimp intestine microbiota and helps for shrimp culture.

Identification, interactions, nitrogen removal pathways and performances of culturable heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification bacteria from mariculture water by using cell culture and metagenomics. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 732:139268. [PMID: 32402929 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.139268] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2020] [Revised: 05/03/2020] [Accepted: 05/05/2020] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
The rapid expansion of aquaculture industry brings about significant environmental concerns, especially nitrogen pollution. Compared to nitrogen bioconversion implemented by the conventional autotrophic nitrifiers and anaerobic denitrifiers, bacteria capable of heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HNAD) in mariculture environments have yet to be well understood. In this study, twenty-five species of new halophilic HNAD bacteria were isolated and identified from mariculture water. By these strains co-cultured in the synthetic mariculture water (ammonia: 5 mg/L, C/N: 5, salinity: 30‰), microbial dynamic analysis showed that ammonia were mainly removed by dominant genera of Marinomonas, Marinobacterium, Halomonas, and Cobetia which simultaneously had positive correlations to total nitrogen removal. Metagenomic annotations revealed that inorganic-N was converted into gaseous-N and organic-N by these HNAD bacteria through nitrogen metabolism pathways of assimilation, partial nitrification, nitroalkane oxidation, nitrate/nitrite dissimilation reduction, and denitrification. Among them, due to the interspecific coexistence and cooperation, Marinomonas communis &Halomonas titanicae, Marinomonas communis &Cobetia marina, Marinomonas aquimarina &Halomonas titanicae, and Marinomonas aquimarina &Cobetia marina exhibited significantly better inorganic-N removal efficiency and stability. The four novel bacterial consortia could transform approximately 60% of initial ammonia into intracellular organic-N (18-20%) and gaseous-N (36-38%), which were significantly higher than those of their single strains. These findings will contribute to understanding and developing the culturable HNAD bacteria as promising candidates for nitrogen pollution control and water bioremediation in mariculture or other saline environments.

Physicochemical Parameters Affecting the Distribution and Diversity of the Water Column Microbial Community in the High-Altitude Andean Lake System of La Brava and La Punta. Microorganisms 2020; 8:microorganisms8081181. [PMID: 32756460 PMCID: PMC7464526 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms8081181] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2020] [Revised: 07/31/2020] [Accepted: 08/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Due to the low incidence of precipitation attributed to climate change, many high-altitude Andean lakes (HAALs) and lagoons distributed along the central Andes in South America may soon disappear. This includes La Brava–La Punta, a brackish lake system located south of the Salar de Atacama within a hyper-arid and halophytic biome in the Atacama Desert. Variations in the physicochemical parameters of the water column can induce changes in microbial community composition, which we aimed to determine. Sixteen sampling points across La Brava–La Punta were studied to assess the influence of water physicochemical properties on the aquatic microbial community, determined via 16S rRNA gene analysis. Parameters such as pH and the concentrations of silica, magnesium, calcium, salinity, and dissolved oxygen showed a more homogenous pattern in La Punta samples, whereas those from La Brava had greater variability; pH and total silica were significantly different between La Brava and La Punta. The predominant phyla were Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, and Verrucomicrobia. The genera Psychroflexus (36.85%), Thiomicrospira (12.48%), and Pseudomonas (7.81%) were more abundant in La Brava, while Pseudospirillum (20.73%) and Roseovarius (17.20%) were more abundant in La Punta. Among the parameters, pH was the only statistically significant factor influencing the diversity within La Brava lake. These results complement the known microbial diversity and composition in the HAALs of the Atacama Desert.

Abstract
Bacterial diseases cause production failures in shrimp aquacultures. To understand environmental conditions and bacterial community dynamics contributing to white faeces disease (WFD) events, we analysed water quality and compared bacterial communities in water as well as in intestines and faeces of healthy and diseased shrimps, respectively, via 16S rRNA gene sequencing and qPCR of transmembrane regulatory protein (toxR), thermolabile haemolysin (tlh), and thermostable direct haemolysin genes of pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus as a proxy for virulence. WFD occurred when pH decreased to 7.71–7.84, and Alteromonas, Pseudoalteromonas and Vibrio dominated the aquatic bacterial communities. The disease severity further correlated with increased proportions of Alteromonas, Photobacterium, Pseudoalteromonas and Vibrio in shrimp faeces. These opportunistic pathogenic bacteria constituted up to 60% and 80% of the sequences in samples from the early and advances stages of the disease outbreak, respectively, and exhibited a high degree of co-occurrence. Furthermore, toxR and tlh were detected in water at the disease event only. Notably, bacterial community resilience in water occurred when pH was adjusted to 8. Then WFD ceased without a mortality event. In conclusion, pH was a reliable indicator of the WFD outbreak risk. Dissolved oxygen and compositions of water and intestinal bacteria may also serve as indicators for better prevention of WFD events.

Abstract
This work aimed to evaluate the link between the occurrence/abundance of Vibrio populations and bacterial composition in shrimp’s intestine (Litopenaeus vannamei) during post-larval ontogenetic development and in its culture water, and the correlation of these with environmental parameters. The total and metabolically active populations of Vibrio in the digestive tract of shrimp during its post-larval development were analysed using quantitative PCR (qPCR) and reverse transcription qPCR targeting the 16S rRNA gene sequence. A lab-scale shrimp bioassay was performed for 80 days in a recirculating aquarium under strictly controlled conditions. The results indicate that the Vibrio population from shrimp’s gut is associated with its developmental stage and the environment. Multivariate analyses revealed that the presence of Vibrio spp. drove the studied system, but their metabolically active performance was related to earlier developmental stages in an aqueous environment. Also, the samples taken from water of culture units to compare the influence of the aquatic environment on the intestinal microbial community during shrimp’s ontogenetic development showed significant differences. Finally, our results revealed that Vibrio is an important member of shrimp’s gut microbiota; however, its metabolic activity seems to be highly regulated, possibly by the host and by the rest of the microbiota.

Abstract
White shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, is a widely farmed species. In China, shrimp postlarvae (PL) are frequently subjected to salinity reduction treatment to meet end growers' needs. However, although this treatment effectively reduces vibrio counts, its impact on gut microbiota health is still unknown. In this study, we applied a euryhaline strain of BALOs, BDN-1F2 (BD), and Bacillus subtilis (SD) to the rearing of second-generation shrimp PL after salinity reduction treatment so as to determine if they could impact PL gut microbiota by using high-throughput sequencing analysis. Results show that PL gut microbiota, both compositionally and functionally, have been badly wrecked after salinity reduction treatment with the generally recognized as opportunistic pathogens Gammaproteobacteria being the only dominant class at day 1 of test, viz., 99.43, 85.61, and 83.28% in BD, SD, and control (CD) groups, respectively. At day 7, Gammaproteobacteria was still the only dominant class in the SD and CD groups with relative abundance of 99.77 and 99.87% correspondingly, whereas in the BD group, its value dropped to 8.44%. Regarding biodiversity parameter the Shannon index, over the 7-day test period, while the SD group was unchanged (0.98-0.93), the CD group dropped to 0.94 from 2.94, and the BD group was raised to 7.14 from 0.93. Functionally, compared to control, the SD group displayed similar strength of various predicted community functions, but the BD group had hugely enhanced its various capabilities (p < 0.05). These results demonstrated that the addition of BDN-1F2 had exceedingly improved PL gut microbiota health by raising its biodiversities and strengthening its functionalities. On reviewing data derived from this as well as relevant studies, a Shannon index cutoff value was tentatively suggested so as to differentiate microbiota-healthy PL7-15 from the unhealthy ones. Furthermore, a conceptual mechanism of BALOs in the rectification/improvement of the microbial community health has also been proposed.

Abstract
A deteriorated water quality is closely associated with disease outbreaks in aquaculture, where microorganisms play indispensable roles in improving water quality and aquatic animals' health. Mangrove is known to be a natural water quality filter and microbiological buffer of pathogen and prebiotics. However, it is unclear how and to what extent Rhizophora apiculata plantation is of benefits to the gut microbiota and growth over mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) aging. To address these concerns, we explored the bacterial communities in mud crab gut and rearing water at 45, 114, and 132 days after incubation, roughly corresponding to juvenile, pre-adult, and adult stages of mud crab. Results showed that 1-year R. apiculata plantation slightly increased the body weight of mud crab and improved water quality to a certain extent. Both bacterioplankton and gut bacterial communities were highly temporal dynamic, while the two communities were significantly distinct (ANOSIM r = 0.90, P = 0.0001). Relative abundances of dominant taxa in water and gut significantly varied between the plantation and the control conditions over mud crab aging. R. apiculata plantation promoted the stability of gut microbiota, as evidenced by more diverse core species. Furthermore, R. apiculata plantation led to the dominance of Verrucomicrobiae species in water and probiotic Bacteroidetes and Lactobacillales taxa in gut. A structural equation model revealed that water variables directly constrained gut microbiota, which in turn affected the body weight of mud crab (r = 0.52, P < 0.001). In addition, functional pathways facilitating immunity and lipid metabolism significantly increased in mud crab gut under the plantation, while those involved in infectious diseases exhibited the opposing trend. These findings greatly expand our understanding of the R. apiculata plantation effects on water quality, gut microbiota, and growth feature of mud crab. Overall, R. apiculata plantation is beneficial for mud crab growth and health. KEY POINTS: • A short-term R. apiculata plantation could potentially improve water quality. • Bacterioplankton is more sensitive than mud crab gut microbiota in response to R. apiculata plantation. • R. apiculata plantation enhances mud crab resistance against pathogen invasion. • R. apiculata plantation alters mud crab gut microbiota, which in turn promotes their body weight.

Abstract
With rapid increases in the global shrimp aquaculture sector, a focus on animal health during production becomes ever more important. Animal productivity is intimately linked to health, and the gut microbiome is becoming increasingly recognised as an important driver of cultivation success. The microbes that colonise the gut, commonly referred to as the gut microbiota or the gut microbiome, interact with their host and contribute to a number of key host processes, including digestion and immunity. Gut microbiome manipulation therefore represents an attractive proposition for aquaculture and has been suggested as a possible alternative to the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics in the management of disease, which is a major limitation of growth in this sector. Microbiota supplementation has also demonstrated positive effects on growth and survival of several different commercial species, including shrimp. Development of appropriate gut supplements, however, requires prior knowledge of the host microbiome. Little is known about the gut microbiota of the aquatic invertebrates, but penaeid shrimp are perhaps more studied than most. Here, we review current knowledge of information reported on the shrimp gut microbiota, highlighting the most frequently observed taxa and emphasizing the dominance of Proteobacteria within this community. We discuss involvement of the microbiome in the regulation of shrimp health and disease and describe how the gut microbiota changes with the introduction of several economically important shrimp pathogens. Finally, we explore evidence of microbiome supplementation and consider its role in the future of penaeid shrimp production.
