Farmed fish are increasingly grown in intensive and semi-intensive systems where most nutrients are provided by formulated feeds. These are formulated to minimise costs and optimise growth, notably the rate of muscle protein synthesis (i.e., fillet). Protein synthesis depends on the availability of amino acids (i.e., protein) and energy. Thus, fish feeds are often formulated to provide a balanced ratio

Optimization of aquaculture sustainability through ecological intensification in China Rev. Aquacult. (IF 10.592) Pub Date : 2022-01-10 Shuang-lin Dong, Yun-wei Dong, Ling Cao, Johan Verreth, Yngvar Olsen, Wen-jing Liu, Qi-zhi Fang, Yan-gen Zhou, Li Li, Jing-yu Li, Yong-tong Mu, Patrick Sorgeloos
As the world's leading producer of farmed aquatic food products, China faces great uncertainty concerning the further sustainable development of its aquaculture industry due to high and increasing pressure from environmental and resource constraints. To realize truly sustainable development, it is imperative to establish an evaluation system that integrates social, economic, environmental and resource

Cannibalism mitigation in striped murrel, Channa striata, with hatchery seed weaned on pellet diet: A review Rev. Aquacult. (IF 10.592) Pub Date : 2021-12-23 Sudhir Raizada, Anurag Rawat, Prem P. Srivastava, Kuldeep K. Lal
Striped snakehead is one of the important food fish of high commercial value due to preference for its meat quality, therapeutic and antinociceptive properties. The species is distributed in many countries in South Asia to South-East Asia. The current production of the species is largely contributed from the capture fisheries as there are several inherent problems associated with its farming. The major

Potential application of bacteriocins for sustainable aquaculture Rev. Aquacult. (IF 10.592) Pub Date : 2021-12-20 Ashwath Nayak, Indrani Karunasagar, Anirban Chakraborty, Biswajit Maiti
The emergence and prevalence of bacterial pathogens in freshwater aquaculture systems is a growing concern as the economic losses associated with diseases are mounting and impacting the fishery sector. One way of controlling fish mortality and morbidity is using bacteriocin-secreting probiotics, which are generally considered safe without any adverse effects that usually accompany other treatment strategies

Nutrient retention efficiencies in integrated multi-trophic aquaculture Rev. Aquacult. (IF 10.592) Pub Date : 2021-12-20 Marit A. J. Nederlof, Marc C. J. Verdegem, Aad C. Smaal, Henrice M. Jansen
One of the bottlenecks for commercial implementation of integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) is the difficulty in quantifying its environmental performance. We reviewed a large body of literature to determine the variability in nutrient dynamics within different IMTA systems (open sea-cages, land-based flow-through and recirculating aquaculture systems), with the aim to provide a generic framework

Environmental enrichment increases aquatic animal welfare: A systematic review and meta-analysis Rev. Aquacult. (IF 10.592) Pub Date : 2021-12-07 Zonghang Zhang, Lijia Gao, Xiumei Zhang
With the rapid development of aquaculture and the gradual decrease in fishery resources, aquatic animal welfare (AAW) has received increasing attention from animal protection organisations, government departments, biologists, fish culturists and consumers. Although environmental enrichment (EE) can potentially benefit AAW, the relevant results are sharply mixed, and the drivers for these discrepancies

The regulation of shrimp metabolism by the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) Rev. Aquacult. (IF 10.592) Pub Date : 2021-12-06 Ramya Kumar, Jiun-Yan Huang, Yen-Siong Ng, Cong-Yan Chen, Han-Ching Wang
For more than three decades, infectious diseases have been one of the major causes of economic losses in the global shrimp industry. One of the deadliest of the shrimp pathogens is white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), which causes mass mortality in farmed shrimp. Various aspects of WSSV pathogenicity have been studied, but in this review, we will focus only on one of them, namely metabolic reprogramming

Recent developments in male fertility evaluation, sperm cryopreservation and artificial fertilisation, and their potential application to decapod crustacean aquaculture Rev. Aquacult. (IF 10.592) Pub Date : 2021-12-06 Jon Irish Legaspi Aquino, Lisa Elliott, Chaoshu Zeng, Damien B.B.P. Paris
To maximise productivity, a better understanding of the underlying causes of subfertility that lead to inferior offspring and high mortality is imperative. In decapod crustaceans, most research has focused on female reproductive performance, with little attention given to male fertility. Paternal genetic contribution is critical to both successful embryonic and post-embryonic development. Assessment
