Article Synopsis
- Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) require effective management of microbial communities, as the health of fish like sole depends on stable relationships with key microorganisms throughout their life stages.
- The study investigates how much of the sole's microbiome comes from the egg stage versus being acquired later, analyzing various tissues from 2 days before hatching up to 146 days post-hatching to identify inherited and acquired microbial communities.
- Results indicate that while only a few genera are inherited from the egg stage, some potentially beneficial and harmful bacteria are present from the beginning, with many others acquired during different life stages, emphasizing the need for comprehensive life cycle studies in aquaculture.
