Abstract

Seriola rivoliana intestinal microbiota (IM) was characterised under aquaculture conditions through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. Specimens of 30 days after hatching (DAH) were maintained in three tanks and fed under the same environmental conditions for characterisation 15 days prior to sampling. Three fish were randomly taken from each tank; total DNA extraction of the gut microbiota was performed to characterise microbial composition and its metabolic prediction. The V3 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA was amplified and sequenced with Illumina pair-end technology. The prokaryotic components in the S. rivoliana intestine were dominated mainly by the phyla Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Cyanobacteria and Actinobacteria. No significant differences in beta diversity were detected in the three samples (tanks). However in alpha diversity, they were detected in juveniles of the same cohort within the same group, as exemplified by enrichment of certain bacterial groups, mainly of the Clostridia class, which were specific in each fish within the same tank. The metabolic prediction analyses suggested that S. rivoliana IM contribute to the metabolism of amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, and immune system. This study provides the first IM characterisation under rearing conditions of S. rivoliana-a species with broad economic potential-and contributes to novel information for potential use of probiotics in future trials.
