Integrated multi-omics analysis reveals the mechanisms by which water flow intensity affects growth in Cyprinus carpio cultured in a recirculating aquaculture system
To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying growth adaptation to different water flow intensities in Cyprinus carpio cultured in a recirculating aquaculture system, this study established a control group (CG) and three continuous water flow treatment groups, 1 bl/s (LF), 2 bl/s (MF), and 3 bl/s (HF). Growth performance was compared among groups under different flow intensities, and muscle tissues from the best-performing group and the control group were subjected to transcriptome sequencing and whole-genome DNA methylation sequencing.
