Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the dietary habits, foraging strategies, and interactions among four carnivorous fish species in the northwestern Bay of Bengal between 2014-2016.
- Two species, Trichiurus lepturus and Saurida undosquamis, primarily consumed fish, while Nemipterus japonicus focused on shellfish, and Otolithes ruber had a mixed diet.
- The research highlighted seasonal feeding variations, niche specialization, and prey overlap, suggesting that resource sharing among these species helps reduce competition and supports their coexistence.
Mantle tissue from the black-lip pearl oyster, Pinctada margaritifera, was cultured in vitro using sterilized seawater supplemented with 0.1% yeast extract as the culture medium. Granular and agranular epithelial cells, hyalinocytes, and fibroblast-like cells were observed in the initial stages of culture.
