Current Status and Production Trends of Commercially Cultured Mariculture Species Along the Kenyan Coast: Challenges, Opportunities and Future Prospects

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Mariculture holds significant promise for enhancing food security, blue economy development and climate‐resilient livelihoods along Kenya's 640 km coastline. This review synthesises over two decades of empirical and grey literature to examine the current status, production trends, challenges and future prospects of commercially cultured ...

Morphology and Ultrastructure of cysts in different species of the brine shrimp, Artemia from Southern India

International Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2013
Surface topography and ultrastructure of dried cysts of Artemia parthenogenetica (Vedaranyam population) and bisexual Artemia sp. (Kelambakkam population) were studied electron microscopically in order to identify the bisexual strain, inhabiting Covelong

Functional Role of Native and Invasive Filter-Feeders, and the Effect of Parasites: Learning from Hypersaline Ecosystems.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Filter-feeding organisms are often keystone species with a major influence on the dynamics of aquatic ecosystems. Studies of filtering rates in such taxa are therefore vital in order to understand ecosystem functioning and the impact of natural and ...

Effect of the enrichment time with the tuna orbital oil emulsion on the fatty acids profile of juveniles of Artemia franciscana

Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2021
Artemia is deficient in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), particularly in arachidonic (ARA, 20:4n-6), eicosapentaenoic (EPA, 20:5n-3), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3). The aim of this study was to determine the optimal time in which the higher

Artemia Enrichment Strategies: A Comprehensive Review of Nutritional Enhancements With Emphasis on Fatty Acid Profiles in Aquatic Species

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 4, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Artemia (brine shrimp) is a foundational live feed in global aquaculture, renowned for its adaptability, ease of production, and favorable nutritional profile. However, in its natural state, Artemia contains suboptimal levels of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs), particularly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA ...

Feeding Mystus gulio Fry With Different Dietary Inclusion of Coccomyxa Sp.: Changes in Nutritional Profile, Pigments and Digestive Enzyme Activities

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Coccomyxa sp. on the survival, nutritional profile, pigments and digestive enzyme activities of Mystus gulio. A 75‐day feeding trial was performed during which the fish fry were fed with microalgae as a partial replacement for other nutritional components.

Species Diversity and Distribution of Artemia (Crustacea, Anostraca) in Iran: Historical Contexts and Updated Review

Zoodiversity
In light of the pivotal role of Artemia Leach, 1819 as food in larviculture and fisheries, it becomes imperative to continually reassess its resources and deepen our understanding of its species diversity.

South African Propolis: Anti‐Helicobacter pylori Activity, Chemistry, and Toxicity

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Propolis, a resin‐like substance produced by bees, has previously shown antimicrobial activity against the ulcer‐causing gut pathogen Helicobacter pylori. South African propolis, however, was yet to be investigated. This study aimed to investigate a comprehensive range of South African propolis for its antimicrobial activity against H.

Complementarity between Orius predators improves control of foliar and flower pests

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 4230-4242, August 2025.
Orius predators are commonly used against thrips in many crops. Certain species are suggested to be more effective against flower pests, while others may control effectively foliar pests. Here, we show that Orius species combinations may complement each other and effectively control both flower and foliar pests on gerbera.
