Course Goal / Objective
It is aimed to provide detailed information about the gastrointestinal system in fish, to provide information about the microorganisms in the gastrointestinal microbiota and their functional tasks, to examine the role of microbiota on disease factors in terms of fish health and to evaluate the methods used in the identification of microbiota.
Course Content
Definition of microbiota, Structure of the digestive system in fish, Differences in intestinal structure depending on nutrition, Microorganism groups in gut microbiota of fish, Factors affecting fish gut microbiota, Physiology of fish gut microbiome and its role in immunity, Function of gut microbiota in nutrition, The role of gut microbiota in fish diseases, Methods used in the manipulation of gut microbiota, Metagenomic studies of fish gut microbiome, Determination of gut microbial communities of fish by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, Examination of current research on the evaluation of gut microbiota in fish
