Interspecific differences in the physiological condition of native freshwater m...
Modesto, Vanessa; Ilarri, Martina; Castro, Paulo S.; Carvalho, Francisco; Cavalheri, Thais; Lopes-Lima, Manuel; Teixeira, Amílcar; Ozório, Rodrigo O.A.The Asian clam Corbicula fluminea has been widely introduced into aquatic ecosystems and may impact the physiological condition and survival of native freshwater mussels. However, very few studies have evaluated this issue quantitatively. To fill this gap, manipulative field experiments were performed to assess two possible mechanisms of impact on native mussels: (i) interspecific interactions, and (ii) C. flum...
Dietary tributyrin supplementation enhances the immune and antioxidant response...
Magnoni, Leonardo Julian; Silva-Brito, Francisca; Cavalheri, Thais; Espirito-Santo, Carlos; Palma, Mariana; Ozório, Rodrigo; Panserat, StephaneDietary supplementation with tributyrin (TBT), a source of butyric acid, has been shown to improve growth performance and health status when high levels of plant ingredients are included in aquafeeds. Here, we investigated the response of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) to a plant-based diet supplemented with TBT aiming to improve fish performance and welfare. Juvenile rainbow trout (19.0 ± 0.19 g, mean ± S...
Combined effects of temperature and dietary lipid level on body composition, gr...
Cardoso, Patrícia G.; Gonçalves, Odete; Cavalheri, Thais; Amorim, Vânia E.; Cao, Weiwei; Alexandrino, Diogo A. M.; Jia, Zhongjun; Carvalho, Maria F.The effects of increasing temperature and dietary lipid level on the body composition, growth performance, and freshness profile of the European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) were evaluated through a fish trial lasting 56 days. Findings demonstrated that fish reared at 24 °C presented a lower lipid level and a higher daily growth index than those reared at 20 °C. On the other hand, the sea bass condition index...
