Abstract

Abstract: The toxic effect of deltamethrin (DM) was documented in aquaculture. There is no obtainable data on the effect of Chlorella vulgaris against DM toxicity . The current study focused on the effect of dietary supplementation with C. vulgaris (CV) on growth performance, innate immune response, antioxidant activities, and transcriptomics disorders induced by sub-lethal dose of DM in Oreochromis niloticus . A total number of 216 O. niloticus divided into four groups with tri-replicates. The 1 st control group (CT) fed a basal diet, the second group fed diet enriched with 5% CV. The third group was exposed to DM (15 μg/L), where the last group fed CV and simultaneously exposed to DM as previous-mentioned. The procedure of CV feeding and DM exposure were continued for two months. Exposures to DM revealed in stunting of the growth parameters and lessening of survival ratio of tilapias with a significant decline of the erythrogram (macrocytic hypochromic anemic picture), and leucocytes immune cells and related parameters (immunoglobulin M, lysozyme) and sever shifting in the antioxidant indicators. Sever raise was monitored in hepatic and kidney markers. Also, genes expression related to immune and antioxidant parameters were severely impacted. Where tilapias received CV showed a significant increase in the growth and immune parameters besides to an improvement of hematological, antioxidant values and their related genes expressions. The fourth group that received CV simultaneous with DM exposure showed a soothing of the previous indicators and markers toward the values of tilapias fed on basal diet (CT). In turn, CV supplementation may be presented a protective effect alongside DM toxicity in O. niloticus appeared through soothing of the immune, antioxidant and related genes expressions in addition to its hepato-renal protective effects. Therefore, the current study recommended that an incorporating of 5% CV for tilapias diet could improve their growth performance, immunity, antioxidant and transcriptomics disorders induced by deltamethrin. Highlights: Chlorella vulgaris (CV) increase growth performance and survival rate of Nile tilapia exposed to deltamethrin toxicity. CV alleviate hematological alterations induced by deltamethrin in Nile tilapia. CV algae alleviate hepatorenal toxicity induced by deltamethrin in Nile tilapia. CV modulated oxidative stress induced by deltamethrin and enhanced innate immune responses of Nile tilapia.
