    Abstract:
    This study explored the role of myo-inositol in alleviating the low salinity stress of White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). Juvenile shrimp (0.4 ± 0.02 g) in low salinity (salinity 3) water were fed diets with myo-inositol levels of 0, 272, 518, 1020 and 1950 mg/kg (crude protein is 36.82 %, crude lipid is 7.58 %), fed shrimp in seawater at a salinity of 25 were fed a 0 mg/kg myo-inositol diet as a control (Ctrl). The experiment was carried out in tanks (50 L) with satiety feeding, and the experiment lasted for 6 weeks. After sampling, the serum was used to measure immune function, the hepatopancreas homogenate was used to measure the antioxidant capacity and hepatopancreas damage state, the hepatopancreas was used for transcriptomics analysis, and the gills were used for qPCR to measure osmotic pressure regulation. The results showed that the final weight and survival of the shrimp in the 1020 mg/kg group increased significantly compared with those in the other low salinity groups, but the final weight and biomass increase were significantly lower than those in the Ctrl group. Dietary myo-inositol improved the antioxidant capacity of shrimp under low salinity. B-cell hyperplasia and hepatic duct damage were observed in the hepatopancreas in the 0 mg/kg group. The results of transcriptome analysis showed that myo-inositol could participate in the osmotic pressure regulation of shrimp by regulating carbohydrate metabolism, amino acid metabolism, lipid metabolism and other related genes. Myo-inositol significantly affected the expression of related genes in ion transporter and G protein-coupled receptor-mediated pathways. This study demonstrated that myo-inositol can not only act as an osmotic pressure effector and participate in the osmolar regulation of shrimp through the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway mediated by G protein-coupled receptors but also relieve low salinity stress by mediating physiological pathways such as immunity, antioxidation, and metabolism in shrimp. The binomial regression analysis of biomass increases and survival showed that the appropriate amount of myo-inositol in the L. vannamei diet was 862.50-1275.00 mg/kg under low salinity.
