“…Previous studies have shown that DUSP1 is induced in response to hypoxia [39] and acute thermal exposure [40]. There is also evidence that the suppression of DUSP1 can significantly increase the apoptotic rate of zebrafish ZF4 cells at low temperatures [41], and recent studies have revealed the link between DUSP1 and low temperature-induced embryonic diapause in blue-breasted quail [42]. based on these studies, we speculate that DUSP1 plays an pivotal role in regulating cell growth and apoptosis under cold stress.…”

Grass carp is an important commercial fish widely cultivated in China. A wide range of temperatures, particularly extremely low temperatures, have dramatic effects on the aquaculture of this teleost. However, relatively few studies have characterized the molecular responses of grass carp exposed to acute cooling in natural environment. Here, we investigated the transcriptome profiles of the grass carp brain in response to cooling. Through regulation pattern analyses, we identified 2,513 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that responded to moderate cold stress (12˚C), while 99 DEGs were induced by severe low temperature (4˚C).The pathway analyses revealed that the DEGs sensitive to moderate cold were largely enriched in steroid biosynthesis, spliceosome, translation, protein metabolism, phagosome, gap junction and estrogen signaling pathways. Additionally, we discerned genes most likely involved in low temperature tolerance, of which the MAPK signaling pathway was dominantly enriched. Further examination and characterization of the candidate genes may help to elucidate the mechanisms underpinning extreme plasticity to severe cold stress in grass carp.

“…It can be explained in part by morphological changes in the blastoderm [ 60 , 61 , 62 ] with increased cell apoptosis and necrosis [ 63 ] during storage. In fact, a decline of the total blastodermal cell counts with the increase of storage duration was noted by Uyanga et al [ 60 ] with Marshall ® broiler breeders and by Cai et al [ 64 ] on Blue-breasted quail breeders. Bakst and Akuffo [ 65 ] reported that storage for 5 days of turkey eggs already altered the macroscopic and microscopic appearances of blastoderms.…”

Egg storage duration and breeder age are probably interacting to influence egg quality, hatchability, and hatchling quality. To evaluate this interaction, the impact of breeder age (31, 42, 66 weeks) and storage duration (2, 5, 12, 19 days) was investigated on broiler breeder eggs (Arbor Acres). Thick albumen diameter and pH increased, and yolk dry matter decreased between 2 and 19 days of storage. With the increase of breeder age from 31 to 66 weeks, albumen height, percentage and dry matter and shell percentage decreased and the egg weight and yolk percentage, dry matter and diameter increased. Prolonged egg storage increased the yolk pH in all breeder ages, but earlier and steeper in the oldest breeders. Prolonged egg storage resulted in a lower hatchability of set and fertile eggs due to a higher percentage of embryonic mortality. Early mortality increased earlier and steeper with prolonged egg storage in the oldest compared to younger breeders. Between 5 and 19 days of storage, yolk free body mass, liver and proventriculus + gizzard percentages decreased, as well as hatchling length and yolk efficiency (yolk absorption per initial yolk weight). The latter effects were most pronounced in the younger than in the older breeders. Therefore, eggs are preferably stored shorter than 7 d, but if long storage (≥12 days) cannot be avoided, we recommend to store eggs of older breeders when egg quality and hatchability are most important. In case hatchling quality is most important, it would be better to store eggs of younger breeders (31 weeks) for a prolonged period.

Grass carp is an important commercial fish widely cultured in China. Large range of 16 temperature, in particular extremely low temperature, has dramatic effects on the aquaculture of this 17 teleost. However, there is relatively little research on the molecular responses in the fish exposed to 18 cold. Given the limited vision of approaches targeting individual genes, we investigated the 19 transcriptome profiles of brain in response to cold in order to comprehensively characterize 20 molecular mechanisms behind it. This study indicated that the estrogen signaling pathway was 21 inhibited in brain when grass carp acclimated to low temperature, while terpenoid backbone 22 biosynthesis pathway and steroid biosynthesis pathway were significantly activated. Such a result 23 implied the crucial role of cholesterol in cold acclimation. Moreover, plenty of differentially expressed 24 genes associated with spliceosomes were enriched during cooling process, which suggested 25 alternative splicing may be involved in the regulation of biological process in acclimation to 26 temperature changes. In researches on extremely low-temperature tolerance, we identified four 27 genes (DUSP1, HSPA6, NR4A1 and GADD45B) associated with MAPK signaling pathway. The four 28 genes, extensively up-regulated at 4℃ and remained relatively low expression at moderate 29 temperature, were closely related with extremely cold condition. Further examination of the 30 candidate genes can provide insights into the mechanisms of grass carp to endure extremely low 31 temperature in the winter. 34As the "abiotic master factor" [1], water temperature controls all the physiological and 35 behavioural parameters of fish [2]. In the past few decades, the world has suffered climate caprice 36 which seriously endangered aquatic poikilotherms' survival and damaged aquaculture industry [3].37 Given the ecological and economic importance of fish, the influence of the interaction between fish 38 and water temperature has been comprehensively studied but far from concluded. 39While the effect of high-temperature on fish has been concerned and studied extensively due 40 to the acceleration of global warming [4], low temperature caused much more fish death and 41 brought acute economic losses to aquaculture industry [5]. Compared with studies on mammals 42 and birds, the research on cold adaptation of fish is relatively limited and the underlying 43 mechanisms remains obscure. Nevertheless, some researches have thrown light on the response 44 of fish to cold [2, 6]. As a way to respond ambient temperature change, migratory fishes simply 45 swim to suitable areas. However, non-migratory fishes have to tolerate low-temperature condition 46 with special mechanisms. Indeed, fishes living in cold water areas with low-temperature throughout 47 the year have unique physiological mechanisms to adapt the adverse conditions [7, 8]. The most 48 notable example was the antifreeze protein in Antarctic fishes [9]. In addition, some studies 49 revealed that the lack of hemoglobin...
