Olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) was exposed to water-borne phenanthrene for 4 weeks. After the exposure for 2-weeks, hepatic cytochrome P450 contents were significantly elevated. Induction of hepatic ethoxy resorufin-O-deethylase (PROD) activity was significantly increased in flounders treated with 1.0 and 2.0 $\mu$M phenanthrene, compared to untreated group and 0.5 $\mu$M treated group. However, there were no significant changes in pentoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (PROD) activity in hepatic microsome of all the phenanthrene-treated groups, compared to the untreated group. Phenanthrene has the potential to induce cytochrome P450 and EROD enzyme of the olive flounder.

Since 2000 fry releasing programs in Korea have significantly expanded in order to support the commercial fishing industry through recruitment enhancement of targeted species. Here we investigate the economic effectiveness of the Olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) fry releasing program in Korean waters. The market survey method was used in our analyses. Results show that the B/C ratio, as an indicator of economic evaluation, is 2.56 in the East Sea region, 9.45 in the South Sea region, and 1.34 in the West Sea region, which indicates that the fry releasing program is economically feasible but the economic effectiveness varies from region to region.

The potential of phenanthrene to induce xenobiotic responses was investigated. Olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) was exposed to different levels of phenanthrene $(0.5,\;1\;and\;{\mu}M)$ for 4 weeks, Gill CYP450 content and EROD (ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation) activity were found to be significant in the flounders treated with the higher concentration of phenanthrene $(>1.0\;{\mu}M)$, however, there were no significant changes in gill PROD (penthoxyresorufin O-deethylation) activity in all treated group compared to the controls. This study demonstrated that phenanthrene has potential to induce gill cytochrome P450 and EROD enzyme in olive flounder.

The effects of inorganic mercury on hematological parameters and hepatic oxidative stress enzyme activity were studied in olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. Fish were injected twice intraperitoneally with mercuric chloride (2, 4, or 8 mg Hg/kg BW). The major hematological findings were significant decreases in the red blood cell count, hematocrit value, and hemoglobin level in olive flounder exposed to 8 mg Hg/kg BW. Remarkably low levels of calcium and chloride, and reduced osmolality, were also observed at 8 mg Hg/kg BW. In hepatic tissue, significant increases in glutathione peroxidase and catalase activity were observed above 4 mg Hg/kg BW Inorganic mercury also increased glutathione S-transferase and glutathione reductase activity at 8 mg Hg/kg BW in hepatic tissue. The present findings suggest that exposure to a low concentration (${\geq}4$ mg Hg/kg BW) of inorganic mercury can cause significant changes in hematological and antioxidant parameters.

Fluctuations in the price of aquaculture products have recently intensified. In particular, wholesale price fluctuations are adversely affecting consumers. Therefore, there is an emerging need for a study on forecasting the wholesale price of aquaculture products. The present study forecasted the wholesale price of olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus, a representative farmed fish species in Korea, by constructing multivariate long-short term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent unit (GRU) models. These deep learning models have recently been proven to be effective for forecasting in various fields. A total of 191 monthly data obtained for 17 variables were used to train and test the models. The results showed that the mean average percent error of LSTM and GRU models were 2.19% and 2.68%, respectively.

Effects of Escherichia coli genomic DNA on the production of phagocyte activating supernatants by the head kidney leucocytes isolated from olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) were investigated. Phagocyte activating activity of the supernatants was estimated by. measuring reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in target head kidney phagocytes. All supernatants from olive flounder head kidney leucocytes-stimulated with E. coli DNA induced significantly (P<0.01) higher ROS production from target pagocytes than the unstimulated control supernatant. Maximum enhancement of chemiluminescent response was observed $5.0-10.0{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ of bacterial DNA while the increment ability was decreased significantly (P<0.01) at the concentration of $20.0{\mu}mL^{-1}$. The results demonstrate that olive flounder head-kidney leucocytes stimulated with bacterial DNA release a soluble phagocyte activating cytokines capable of enhancing the respiratory burst activity from target phagocytes.

We identified a microsatellite marker, Poli121TUF, which appears to be significantly linked (P<0.001) with a lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV)-resistance gene in the olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. The olive flounder is an economically important food fish, that is widely cultured in Korea, Japan, and China. Lymphocystis disease has spread in these countries and has seriously reduced the economic value of the fish. LCDV causes lymphocystis cells (LC) to form on the body surface, fins, gills, mouth, and intestine. Fish with LC lose commercial value due to their deformed appearance. The identified micro satellite marker can be used as a candidate locus for marker-assisted selection (MAS) in order to enhance the efficiency of selection for LCDV resistance in the olive flounder.

$PCB_{s}$ 농도 3.0${\mu}g \; L^{-1}$ 노출에 따른 넙치의 혈액학적 변동을 조사하기 위하며 60일간 침지실험을 실시하였다. PCBs에 노출된 넙치의 무기성분 중에 혈장 magnesium과 inorganic phosphorus는 유의적 변동이 없었으나, calcium은 대조구에 비해 유의한 감소를 보였다. 또 한 유기성분 중에 total protein과 albumin은 노출 20일 째부터 유의한 감소를 보여 실험 종료시가지 이러한 감소는 지속되었고, glucose는 노출 40일 이후 유의한 증가를 나타내었다. 혈장 ALP와 GPT의 활성도는 노출 20 일 이후부터 대조구에 비해 유의한 증가를 나타내었고, GOT는 노출 40일 이후 유의한 증가를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과는 해양에 3.0${\mu}g \; L^{-1}$의 PCBs농도가 존재할 경우 넙치의 혈액학적 변동을 야기할 수 있음을 의미한다.

Triplicate groups of fed and starved olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus (body weight: $119.8{\pm}17.46$ g), were examined over 42 days for physiological changes using hematological, biochemical, and non-specific immune parameters. No significant differences in concentrations of blood hemoglobin and hematocrit and plasma levels of total cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, glucose, and cortisol were detected between fed and starved groups at any sampling time throughout the experiment. In contrast, plasma total protein concentrations were significantly lower in starved fish than in fed fish from day 7 onwards. Moreover, plasma lysozyme concentrations were significantly higher in starved flounder from day 21 onwards. This result confirms that the response of olive flounder to short-term (less than about 1.5 months) starvation consists of a readjustment of metabolism rather than the activation of an alarm-stress response. The present results indicate that starvation does not significantly compromise the health status of fish despite food limitation.

Effect of dietary nutrient composition on growth and body composition of juvenile olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus with different feeding strategy was determined. Twenty-five fish averaging 16 g were randomly distributed into 12, 180 L flow-through tank each. Four treatments in triplicates were prepared: fish were fed to satiation twice daily by the control diet for 8 weeks as the control group (Con) and fish were fed to satiation twice daily by the control and high nutrient diets for 6 weeks after 2-week fasting (2WS-6WFC, 2WS-6WFHN, respectively) and finally, fish were fed to satiation twice daily by the high nutrient diet for the consecutive 3 days after 4-day fasting for 8 weeks (4DS-3DFHN). No significant difference was found in either survival or weight gain of flounder among treatments. Feed efficiency ratio (FER) for fish in the 2WS-6WFHN treatment was significantly higher than that for fish in the Con and 2WS-6WFC treatments. Protein efficiency ratio (PER) of fish in the 2WS-6WFHN and 4DS-3DFHN treatments was significantly higher than that of fish in the 2WS-6WFC treatment. In conclusion, manipulation of dietary nutrient composition and/or feeding strategy can effectively improve growth of juvenile olive flounder without growth retardation at restricted feeding regime.
