Swinging between the beneficial and harmful microbial community in biofloc technology: A paradox. [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Biofloc Technology (BFT) is proven to be the fulcrum of sustainable recirculating aquaculture system especially under zero water discharge condition. The efficiency of BFT system is reinforced by an unswerving microbial community in the system. Several researchers have made copious reports on the microorganisms in BFT and identified heterotrophic ...
