With the rising global demand for seafood and the challenges posed by overfishing and climate change, the aquaculture sector has become increasingly important in providing high‐quality protein for human consumption. Although traditional selection breeding programs have made great strides in genetic improvement of aquaculture species over the past decades, faster and more precise breeding tools, such as genome manipulation, are...

Studies have demonstrated adverse effects of global warming on aquatic ecosystems. However, the effects of increased water temperature (IWT) on fish reproduction are still doubtful in species spawning at low or high temperatures. In this meta‐analysis, we elucidated the effects of global warming on spermatozoa functions, key determinants of male fertility. We recruited 245 data records from 20 studies spanning 20 cold‐ and war...

Short‐term storage of fish sperm is a simple and cost‐effective process in fishery research from basic to applied perspectives. It has been used to elucidate and evaluate gamete biology and quality, perform in vitro fertilization, develop sperm cryopreservation. Sperm short‐term storage is used in selective breeding, hatchery production and advanced molecular investigations such as disease detection of commercial species in aq...

Previous studies have demonstrated that CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated genome editing and transgenesis by integrating vector‐engineered antimicrobial peptide genes (AMGs) are effective to modulate the fish's innate immune system. To generalise the knowledge of AMG application in aquaculture, we recruited 544 data entries from a pool of empirical studies, which included 23 studies (two unpublished from our team) spanning 12 diseases. We...
