Abstract
This is the first study using the transcriptome and 16S rRNA gene sequencing to report the hypotonic responsive genes in gill cells and the compositions of gill microbiota in marine medaka. The overlapped glycosaminoglycan- and chitin-related pathways suggest host-bacterium interaction in fish gill during osmotic stress.
