Aquaculture - an introductory text
Selective breeding combined with fish- and soya-free feed
Yellow grub disease is caused by clinostomid metacercariae (CM) infecting freshwater fish and has a potential impact on human health by causing Halzoun disease. This study aimed to combine both molecular and immunological approaches to characterize CM naturally infecting Nile tilapia. Two hundred...
This study mainly addressed the methodology issue of how to model the hydrodynamic drag effects of aquaculture facilities and activities. Here, firstly, surface shear stress was determined by roughness height for characterizing the drag from floating aquaculture activities, while bottom shear...
The use of copper sulfate pentahydrate (herein, designated CuSO4) for fungus control on fish embryos is extremely effective and economical for farmers in waters with moderate or high alkalinity/hardness; however, fry toxicity in low alkalinity/hardness waters is a concern. The present study...
This report describes in detail steps and considerations in the design of hatchery-based breeding trials for small indigenous fish species (SIS) native to South Asia. The aim of the trials is to develop to replicable protocols for the mass production of several micronutrient rich SIS. Once...
This book, the third volume in the series Climate Change and Fish Health, describes how finfish in cage culture and their pathogens are directly or indirectly affected by ongoing changes to the environment. These changes, which include a global rise in water temperature with increased acidification...
Sustainable rainbow trout aquaculture
INRAE, the Aqualande group and its selective breeding company Les Sources de l’Avance, and the French Poultry and Aquaculture Breeders...
The interaction of nutrients, environment, and genome determines the general physiological functioning and health of an organism. The branch of science which aims to understand these interactions is known as "Nutrigenomics." Aquaculture and fisheries are the fast-growing food production systems and...
Integrated cultivation and breeding in rice fields is a green circular agricultural model that combines rice cultivation with aquaculture and poultry farming. Compared with rice monoculture, the integrated cultivation and breeding in rice fields can reduce the application amount of chemical...
The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of pectin supplemented feeds on the growth, gut morphology and immunology of Labeo rohita. Experimental feeds containing various concentrations of pectin including control (0%), T1 (0.5%), T2 (1.0%), T3 (2.0%), and T4 (4.0%) were administered to...
