Article Synopsis
- * It was found that higher DHA levels in the larvae's diet led to increased DHA content in the larvae, positively influencing their growth and consumption of prey.
- * Gene analysis revealed that DHA significantly impacted different genes related to neural and synaptic development, particularly at 10 days post-hatching, while older larvae showed fewer gene alterations but affected diverse organ development.
Flathead gray mullet () is a cosmopolitan mugilid species popular in fishery and aquaculture with an economic preference for all-female population. However, it displays neither sexual dimorphisms nor heteromorphic sex chromosomes. We have previously presented a microsatellite-based linkage map for this species locating a single sex determination region (SDR) on linkage group 9 (LG9) with evidence for XX/XY sex determination (SD) mechanism.

A study comprised of two trials determined the effects of water turbidity produced by live microalgae and inert clay particles on the larval rearing of grey mullet (Mugil cephalus). Trial 1 evaluated the effect of microalgae produced water turbidity on grey mullet larval performance and digestive tract (DT) enzyme ontogeny. Two microalgae (Nannochloropsis oculata and Isochrysis galbana) water turbidity levels (0.
