Lactococcosis is a disease encountered in a wide variety of fish species causing mortalities and having great economic impact on farmed fish. In this study, we report for the first time the isolation of a strain of the recently described novel species Lactococcus petauri, from rainbow trout suffering from lactococcosis. The aim of this study was to determine the complete genome sequence of L. petauri strain LG_SAV_20 and to characterize its antimicrobial resistance and virulence. The genome of L. petauri LG_SAV_20 consists of 2,078,949 base pair (bp) with a GC content of 38.05%, 1950 predicted coding sequence (CDS), and 60 RNAs (51 tRNAs, 3 ncRNAs, and 6 rRNAs). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that L. petauri LG_SAV_20 shares most of its genome with L. garvieae strains isolated from rainbow trout. Detection of genes associated with antimicrobial resistance indicated that the isolate possesses the multidrug transporter mdt(A) gene, while using comparative analysis we identified several genes that might be related to bacterial pathogenesis. This genomic information provides new insights into the role of this novel species as an etiological agent of lactococcosis.

Vertebrate brain function is particularly sensitive to the effects of hypoxia, with even brief periods of oxygen deprivation causing significant brain damage and impaired cognitive abilities. This study is the first to investigate the cognitive consequences of hypoxia in fish, specifically induced by exhaustive exercise and air exposure, conditions commonly encountered during catch-and-release (C&R) practices in recreational fishing. Angling exerts substantial pressure on inland fish populations, underscoring the need for sustainable practices like C&R.

Widely used second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides like brodifacoum are classified as persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic. Widespread exposure of terrestrial and avian non-target species is well-known and recently hepatic anticoagulant rodenticide residues have been detected in wild fish. However, no sufficient data exist to interpret the effects of these findings on fish health.

Rainbow trout () is a freshwater fish susceptible to chemical and microbial spoilage, limiting its shelf life. This study aimed to enhance and extend the rainbow trout fillets' shelf life stored at 4°C ± 1°C through an immersion treatment using ultrasound-assisted, defatted pine nut ( Wallich) extracts at concentrations of 1% and 2% (w/v), compared to the control group (0% pine nut). Evaluations were conducted at storage intervals of 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 days.

N-methyladenosine RNA methylation regulates microplastics-induced cell senescence in the rainbow trout liver.

Microplastics are prevalent in aquatic ecosystems, impacting various forms of aquatic life, including fish. In this study, Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were exposed to two concentrations of microplastics (0 and 500 μg/L) over a 14-day period, during which a comprehensive analysis was conducted to assess the liver accumulation of microplastics and their effects on oxidative stress, the liver response, and transcriptomics. Our findings indicated that microplastics significantly accumulated in the liver and activated the antioxidant system in fish by enhancing the activity of antioxidant enzymes.
