This study aimed to explore the effects of different starch source diets on the growth performance and hepatopancreas RNA-seq of grass carp. Juvenile grass carp (initial body weight of 39.4 ± 1.6 g) were fed diets containing 25% corn (CO), potato (PO), and wheat (WH) starch for 8 weeks, respectively. The weight gain ratio (WGR) was significantly lower, whereas the visceral somatic index (VSI) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) we...

Fucoidan and laminarin are polymolecular compounds that extracted from seaweed. As functional polysaccharides, they possess various biological functions such as immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antioxidant bioactivities. Fucoidan and laminarin modulate host immune responses by activating immune cells (macrophages, neutrophils, T lymphocytes) and inducing the expression of cytokines ( TNFα , IL-1β , IL-6 , IL-...
