Atlantic Salmon ( Salmo salar ) Transfer to Seawater by Gradual Salinity Changes Exhibited an Increase in The Intestinal Microbial Abundance and Richness.

摘要
The host's physiological history and environment determine the microbiome structure. In that sense, the strategy used for the salmon transfer to seawater after parr-smolt transformation may influence the Atlantic salmon's intestinal microbiota. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the diversity and abundance of the Atlantic salmon intestinal microbiota and metagenome functional prediction during seawater transfer under three treatments. One group was exposed to gradual salinity change (GSC), the other to salinity shock (SS), and the third was fed with a functional diet (FD) before the seawater (SW) transfer. The microbial profile was assessed through full-16S rRNA gene sequencing using the Nanopore platform. In addition, metagenome functional prediction was performed using PICRUSt2. The results showed an influence of salinity changes on Atlantic salmon gut microbiota richness, diversity, and taxonomic composition. The findings reveal that GSC and the FD increased the Atlantic salmon smolt microbiota diversity, suggesting a positive association between the intestinal microbial community and fish health during seawater transfer. The reported knowledge can be applied to surveil the microbiome in smolt fish production, improving the performance of Atlantic salmon to seawater transfer.
