Mitochondria Dysfunction and Cell Apoptosis Limit Resistance of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to Lethal Cold Stress

Abstract excerpt

) to withstand cold stress represents a major economic concern, which restricts the culture area, limits the growing period and even results in mass mortality in cold seasons. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms determining cold susceptibility of Nile tilapia remain largely unknown. In this study, we characterized the ability of juvenile Nile tilapia to survive lethal cold stress (12 °C) and the median...
