dc.description.abstractEarly development is a critical period in fish aquaculture and is influenced by biotic and abiotic factors (e.g., temperature, feed) that can vary significantly between hatcheries, making it difficult to identify core factors determining quality. Many of the existing larval transcriptome studies are small-scale and occur under specific rearing conditions that do not mirror the diversity of larviculture practices at an industrial level. In the present transcriptome study, gilthead seabream at the larval to juvenile transition (metamorphosis) from several hatcheries in Europe (Greece, Italy, and France) were analysed in a large-scale RNA-seq study. The aim was to uncover the most significant molecular modifications occurring during metamorphosis, irrespective of differences in biotic or abiotic factors, to address knowledge gaps associated with critical early developmental stages under industrial hatchery conditions. Commonly modified gene transcripts between larval stages were identified based on the clustering of gene expression profiles of 25 gilthead seabream libraries from different hatcheries in a PCA analysis. When larvae at flexion were compared to larvae at mid-metamorphosis, 2243 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, and when larvae at early to mid-metamorphosis were compared to mid to late-metamorphosis, 2299 DEGs were identified. Comparative analysis across the developmental stages of gilthead seabream revealed genes of importance for the metamorphic transition and adaptation to rearing conditions, including genes related to the nervous system at flexion (24 days post hatch), enteroendocrine cell differentiation, and lipid homeostasis at early to mid-metamorphosis (46 dph), and enrichment of genes indicative of immune competence at mid to late-metamorphosis (51-54 dph). The differential expression of some endocrine-associated genes, dio1, dio2, cldn1, ing4, Pou3f4, and fgf22, highlights their importance in metamorphosis. Meta-analysis of the transcriptomes from two species, the gilthead seabream and Senegalese sole, that have differing symmetry and ecology uncovered common molecular expression patterns that underlie larvae maturation during metamorphosis, and we propose that these represent core gene markers of metamorphosis in these two fish species.eng
