Influence of Light/Dark Cycles on Body Color, Hepatopancreas Metabolism, and Intestinal Microbiota Homeostasis in Litopenaeus vannamei

In aquatic animals, the light/dark cycle acts as an important biological factor that influences the entire life cycle. Until present, evidence regarding the regulation of physiological metabolic process under different light/dark cycles is limited in Litopenaeus vannamei. In this study, we mainly in...
