Distinguishing the effects of Water volumes versus stocking densities on the sk...
Dellacqua, Zachary; Di Biagio, Claudia; Costa, Corrado; Pousão-Ferreira, Pedro; Ribeiro, Laura; Barata, Marisa; Gavaia, Paulo; Mattei, FrancescoGilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) production is a highly valued aquaculture industry in Europe. The presence of skeletal deformities in farmed gilthead seabream represents a major bottleneck for the industry leading to economic losses, negative impacts on the consumers’ perception of aquaculture, and animal welfare issues for the fish. Although past work has primarily focused on the hatchery phase to reduce the...
Skeletal anomalies in reared European fish larvae and juveniles. Part 2: main t...
Boglione, Clara; Gisbert, Enric; Gavaia, Paulo; Witten, Paul E.; Moren, Mori; Fontagne, Stephanie; Koumoundouros, GiorgosThe presence of skeletal anomalies in farmed teleost fish is currently a major problem in aquaculture, entailing economical, biological and ethical issues. The common occurrence of skeletal abnormalities in farmed fish and the absence of effective solutions for avoiding their onset or definitely culling out the affected individuals as early as possible from the productive cycle, highlight the need to improve ou...
Skeletal anomalies in reared European fish larvae and juveniles. Part 1: normal...
Boglione, Clara; Gavaia, Paulo; Koumoundouros, Giorgos; Gisbert, Enric; Moren, Mari; Fontagne, Stephanie; Witten, Paul EckhardThis critical review summarizes the knowledge about fish skeletal tissues and inherent normal and anomalous development. Particular emphasis is given to existing literature on reared European fishes. The aim was to identify the main gaps of knowledge that require to be filled, in order to precociously identify anomalous developmental patterns that lead to skeletal anomalies in reared finfish larvae and juvenile...
Fish larval nutrition and feed formulation: knowledge gaps and bottlenecks for ...
Hamre, Kristin; Yufera, Manuel; Ronnestad, Ivar; Boglione, Clara; Conceicao, Luis E. C.; Izquierdo, MarisolDespite considerable progress in recent years, many questions regarding fish larval nutrition remain largely unanswered, and several research avenues remain open. A holistic understanding of the supply line of nutrients is important for developing diets for use in larval culture and for the adaptation of rearing conditions that meet the larval requirements for the optimal presentation of food organisms and/or m...
