摘要: Yellow catfish are intensively farmed in China and are often fed a high-fat diet (HFD) with the aim of using less protein. However, an excess of dietary lipids is likely to affect the gut microflora, which strongly affects immunity and nutrient digestion. To determine the effects of different lipid levels on the growth, physiological parameters and gut microbiome of hybrid yellow catfish, we conducted an 8-week feeding experiment with a low-fat diet (2% lipids, LFD), a normal-fat diet (9% lipids, NFD), and a HFD (15% lipids) (120 fish per group). The HFD group showed higher serum alanine aminotransferase and aspartate transaminase activities, which suggests that excess dietary lipids cause liver damage. A total of 1138 operational taxonomic units, 11 phyla, and 117 genera were identified from fish gut samples. Neither the HFD nor the LFD strongly affected the microbial composition in gut samples. Compared with fish in the NFD, those in the HFD and LFD showed significantly decreased intestinal microbial diversity. The composition of macronutrients in the different diets affected the composition of intestinal microflora, mainly the phyla Fusobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Firmicutes. The HFD and the LFD favored the growth of Fusobacteria, while the HFD and LFD resulted in decreased abundance of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, respectively. These findings shed light on the complex relationships among diet, intestinal microorganisms, and host metabolism. When using an HFD for farmed fish, its effects on the gut microbiome should be considered to avoid illness and poor growth.
