Quantitative trait loci for a neurocranium deformity, lack of opercullum, in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L.) [PDF]
Lack of operculum, a neurocranial deformity, is the most common external abnormality to be found among industrially produced gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L.), and this entails significant financial losses.

Environmental Enrichment in Aquaculture: Linking Welfare Goals to Practical Applications
ABSTRACT Aquaculture is the fastest growing food production sector globally, comprising freshwater and marine species reared under highly variable farming contexts, ranging from extensive earthen ponds to intensive recirculating and sea‐based systems. Together with growth, production has also intensified, and the welfare of fish farmed in these systems
