Objective. To identify and determine the infection parameters of the metacestode Parvitaenia in different culture stages of Dormitator latifrons and to evaluate the histological damage caused by this parasite. Materials and methods. Forty-five specimens were examined, 15 in each phase:...

The aim of this study was to detect parasitic agents and describe histopathological lesions in scallops (Argopecten purpuratus) from Ancash, Peru, during the summer and winter periods. In total, 360 mollusks were collected, in equal parts from aquaculture farms and wildlife, and in the summer and...

Whilst aquaculture continues its global expansion, containment of fish in sea cages remains a persistent environmental challenge. Within Atlantic salmon Salmo salar farming, widespread escapes over several decades have left a legacy of ecological and genetic impacts on wild populations. Quantifying ...

Inland aquaculture is essential for the food and livelihoods of millions of small-scale producers across the global South. Very diverse actions from national governments, civil sector and international organizations have been seeking to enhance the performance of small-scale aquaculture systems....

Aquaculture has been challenged to explore alternative proteins to develop efficient feed formulations that foster a sustainable future growth. Largemouth bass (LMB) are economically important cultured fish with a high demand for protein. One of the traditional ingredients used to develop protein...

Growth and digestibility trials were undertaken to evaluate a single cell protein (SCP) produced from methane-oxidising bacteria Methylococcus capsulatus (String Bio, Bengaluru, India) as a replacement for fishmeal in the diets of Pacific white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei. Five isonitrogenous and...

Organic enrichment from fish farming may impact benthic species and habitats in adjacent areas. Norwegian salmon farming is continuously growing, but, due to area conflicts and severe sea-lice problems in the western areas, growth of the industry is focused in the northern areas. Knowledge is...

This study was conducted to determine the dietary riboflavin requirement and its effects on growth performance, feed utilization, innate immunity, and diet digestibility of Litopenaeus vannamei. A riboflavin-free basal diet (R0) was formulated as a control, and six other diets were prepared by...

To investigate the effects of different dietary protein sources on the reproductive performance of female broodstock, yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) were fed with three experimental diets using fishmeal (FM), soybean meal (SBM), and rapeseed meal (RSM) as main protein sources,...

Water quality regulation is widely recognized as a highly effective strategy for disease prevention in the field of aquaculture, and it holds significant potential for the development of sustainable aquaculture. Herein, four water quality regulators, including potassium monopersulfate (KMPS),...
