Abstract

This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). This article has been retracted at the request of Editors-in-Chief and first Author. The article duplicates significant parts of a paper that had already appeared in Fish & Shellfish Immunology, Volume 93 (2019) 726-731, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fsi.2019.06.052. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that the paper has not been previously published and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. As such this article represents a misuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and apologies are offered to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process. The first author informed the journal that the article was published without the knowledge of the co-authors.

Keywords: Aeromonas hydrophila; Antioxidant; Darkbarbel catfish; Resistance diseases; mTOR and NF-kB signaling pathway.
