Growth-Associated Succession and Persistence of Gill and Skin Mucus Microbiota in Cultured Larimichthys crocea

External mucosal surfaces form major interfaces between fish and the aquatic environment, yet their microbial succession during host growth remains incompletely resolved. We characterized the gill and skin mucus microbiota of cultured Larimichthys crocea at three successive body-size stages (5–8 g, 39–46 g, and 160–162...
