Dalian Ocean University Reports Findings in Fish Diseases and Conditions (Nanopore-based full-length transcriptome sequencing of the skin in Pseudopleuronectes yokohamae identifies novel antimicrobial peptide genes).

A recent study conducted at Dalian Ocean University in the People's Republic of China focused on the marbled flounder (Pseudopleuronectes yokohamae) and its transcriptome data to better understand disease protection in fish. The research utilized Nanopore sequencing to identify novel antimicrobial peptide genes in the fish's skin, shedding light on mucosal immunity and disease prevention in aquatic species. This peer-reviewed study provides valuable insights into fish immunology and offers potential strategies for mitigating fish diseases. [Extracted from the article]
