Abstract:
The Mediterranean region is facing several environmental changes and pollution issues. Teleosts are particularly sensitive to these challenges due to their intricate reproductive biology and reliance on specific environmental cues for successful reproduction. Wild populations struggle with the triad of climate change, environmental contamination, and overfishing, which can deeply affect reproductive success and population dynamics. In farmed species, abiotic factors affecting reproduction are easier to control, whereas finding alternatives to conventional diets for farmed teleosts is crucial for enhancing broodstock health, reproductive success, and the sustainability of the aquaculture sector. Addressing these challenges involves ongoing research into formulating specialized diets, optimizing feeding strategies, and developing alternative and sustainable feed ingredients. To achieve a deeper comprehension of these challenges, studies employing model species have emerged as pivotal tools. These models offer advantages in understanding reproductive mechanisms due to their well-defined physiology, genetic tractability, and ease of manipulation. Yet, while providing invaluable insights, their applicability to diverse species remains constrained by inherent variations across taxa and oversimplification of complex environmental interactions, thus limiting the extrapolation of the scientific findings. Bridging these gaps necessitates multidisciplinary approaches, emphasizing conservation efforts for wild species and tailored nutritional strategies for aquaculture, thereby fostering sustainable teleost reproduction in the Mediterranean.
摘要:
地中海地区面临着一些环境变化和污染问题。由于其复杂的生殖生物学以及对成功繁殖的特定环境线索的依赖,因此对这些挑战特别敏感。野生种群与气候变化的三位一体作斗争,环境污染,过度捕捞,会严重影响生殖成功和种群动态。在养殖物种中,影响繁殖的非生物因素更容易控制,尽管为养殖硬骨鱼寻找传统饮食的替代品对于增强亲鱼健康至关重要,生殖成功,以及水产养殖部门的可持续性。解决这些挑战涉及正在进行的研究制定专门的饮食,优化喂养策略,并开发替代和可持续的饲料成分。为了更深入地理解这些挑战,采用模型物种的研究已经成为关键工具。这些模型由于其明确的生理学而在理解生殖机制方面提供了优势,遗传可操作性,易于操纵。然而,在提供宝贵见解的同时,它们对不同物种的适用性仍然受到类群固有变化和复杂环境相互作用过度简化的限制,从而限制了科学发现的推断。弥合这些差距需要多学科的方法,强调野生物种的保护工作和为水产养殖量身定制的营养策略,从而促进地中海的可持续硬骨鱼繁殖。
