Implication

Supplementation with gotu kola improved immune responses and gut microbiota in Macrobrachium rosenbergii, suggesting dietary enhancements can combat disease.

Key Points

Dietary supplementation with gotu kola improved growth and immune parameters in giant freshwater prawns after 28 days.
Prawns receiving 5 and 10 g kg−1 of gotu kola demonstrated significant increases in specific growth rate and immune enzyme activity.
Assessment utilized real-time quantitative PCR to analyze immune-related gene expression in the prawns' response to additives.
Findings highlight the potential of gotu kola in enhancing health and modulating gut microbiota in aquaculture systems.
