As the world's population grows, aquaculture is becoming a rapidly growing source of protein. Grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella ) is one of the most important aquacultured species in China and has emerged as a significant commercial fish worldwide. However, grass carp reovirus (GCRV) poses a significant threat to grass carp aquaculture. This review covers GCRV biology, phylogeny, pathogenesis, immune response pathways, ther...

Cell line misidentification or contamination undermines the reliability of research outcomes. In this study, we verified the species origin of commonly used fish cell lines, with a particular focus on the grass carp ovarian cell line (GCO). RNA‐seq data from 146 samples of 11 widely used fish cell lines were collected from public databases (NCBI‐SRA) and were mapped to the reference genomes of eight species. GCO RNA‐seq sample...

Survival of the immobile embryo in response to rising temperature is important to determine a species’ vulnerability to climate change. However, the collective effects of 2 key thermal characteristics associated with climate change (i.e., rising average temperature and acute heat events) on embryonic survival remain largely unexplored. We used empirical measurements and niche modeling to investigate how chronic and acute heat...
