The genome is 16886 bp in length, and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 r RNA genes, 22 t RNA genes, a light-strand replication origin and a control region. Additionally, phylogenetic analysis based on the nucleotide sequences of 13 conserved protein-coding genes using the maximum likelihood method indicated that the mitochondrial genome is maternally inherited. This study presents genomic data for studying phylogenetic relationships and breeding of hybrid Epinephelinae.展开更多
Crossbreeding between Epinephelas coioides ( ♀ ) and Epinephelus lanceolatus (♂) was conducted by artificial insemination. Fertilized eggs were col- lected at 0, 30, 90 s, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,...Crossbreeding between Epinephelas coioides ( ♀ ) and Epinephelus lanceolatus (♂) was conducted by artificial insemination. Fertilized eggs were col- lected at 0, 30, 90 s, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 min post-insemination respectively, which were fixed by Smith's solution, embedded by paraffins and stained by H.E. According to the characteristics of Epinephelus coioides eggs, tissue section method was modified. The results showed that the sperms of Epinephelus lanceolatus rapidly entered the eggs of Epinephelus coioides at 30 s - 1 rain post-insemination. Observation results of tissue sections showed that mature eggs of Epinephelus coioides remained at metaphase of secondary maturation division. The eggs were activated after sperm penetration into the egg. With the develop- ment of secondary maturation division, at 2 rain post-insemination, eggs reached the metaphase of secondary maturation division ; at 3 - 6 rain post-insemination, sperm asters appeared; at 5 min post-insemination, eggs extruded secondary polar body; at 7 -15 rain post-insemination, male pronucleus and female pronucleus moved closer to each other and fused finally, forming a clear junction line; subsequently, zygote nucleus formed and karyotheca became faint; at 15 min pest-insem- ination, first karvokinetic division was develoued.展开更多

In this study, Epinephelus lanceolatus IFIT1(ELIFIT1) gene was cloned for the first time. The complete cDNA of El IFIT1 gene includes 2921 nucleotides, and encodes a 437-amino acid(AA) protein. The putative ELIFIT1 protein has 9 TRP domains and is highly similar with IFIT1 proteins in other teleosts. In healthy fish, ELIFIT1 gene was highly expressed in the blood, which indicate its specific function in the peripheral immune system. Its expression was also observed in various immunity-related tissues including spleen, intestine, and kidney, Inducted with spotted knifejaw iridovirus(SKIV), ELIFIT1 gene expression was upregulated in the spleen, kidney, and liver 24 h after induction and reached its peak at 72 h, indicating that ELIFIT1 may play an important role in antivirus. These findings contribute to the understanding of the antiviral regulation of ELIFIT1 gene in teleost.展开更多
