Advances in tilapia nutrition, part 1
This two-part review brings together scientific and field advances in tilapia nutrition and feeding to better support the formulation of feeds for better production performance.
The intestinal microbiota in leopard coral grouper
Study investigates microbiota and host metabolism in the coral leopard grouper, an important fisheries species in Asian markets and only recently cultured.
Evaluating temperature preference of Nile tilapia juveniles
This study shows for the first time that Nile tilapia juveniles have a temperature preference for masculinization for a short period of time.
Trans-omics evaluation of cultured and wild female Japanese eels
Trans-omics analysis was used to evaluate the differences between cultured and wild female Japanese eels, and possible causes of the ovulation problems frequently seen in cultured females.
Improving the osmoregulatory capacity of Pacific white shrimp grown in low salinity
Study shows it is possible to improve shrimp production in low-salinity waters by correcting magnesium and potassium deficiencies.
Characterization of bacterioplankton communities in a Senegalese sole RAS hatchery
Study investigates composition of bacterioplankton communities in an RAS hatchery used for the production of Senegalese sole juveniles.
Preventing high ammonia-induced toxicity in cultured fish
This study shows that cessation to feeding may not be the best strategy to manage ammonia toxicity to fish in aquaculture systems that have ammonia spikes.
Evaluating heritability of growth, cold tolerance in Chinese white shrimp
Results of this study showed low heritability and a low correlation between growth and cold tolerance traits for Chinese white shrimp juveniles.
Shrimp grown in biofloc systems with different carbon sources
Study shows biofloc has positive effects on the immune response of Pacific white shrimp juveniles and can result in increased resistance to the IMNV virus.
Detection of an amoebic parasite in cultured Pacific white shrimp
This study describes an amoebic parasite infection in Pacific white shrimp cultured in an anonymous shrimp hatchery. The diseased shrimp exhibited grossly reduced appetite, lethargy, respiratory distress, eroded carapaces and blackened gills.
Organic acids and autolyzed yeast reduce impact of pathogens in fish
Organic acids and autolyzed yeast products can reduce the impact of pathogens like microorganisms, viruses, parasites and fungi, supporting performance and profitability.
New paradigms to help solve the global aquaculture disease crisis
Authors argue that interventions – like automated detection of pathogens and remote sensing applications – can help mitigate aquaculture's disease crisis.
Evaluating biofloc technology for the freshwater fish piracanjuba
This study evaluated the growth performance of the freshwater fish piracanjuba raised in biofloc and clear-water systems for 34 days.
Challenging Pacific white postlarvae with AHPND
Study results indicate that P. vannamei challenged with AHPND in biofloc had higher survival rates than shrimp challenged in clear water.
Efficacy of natural products and antibiotics in shrimp hatcheries
This study evaluated through in vitro analyses the antimicrobial effectiveness of natural products used for P. vannamei bacterial diseases and antibiotics against pathogenic Vibrio strains circulating in Ecuadorian hatcheries.
Researchers examine antimicrobial resistance potential in aquaculture
The influence of antibiotics in fish and their effects on the gut microbiome aren’t well understood, says research team examining antimicrobial resistance.
