Nitrogen excretion and oxygen consumption under severe hypoxia in siluriform fishes from the Amazon
Abstract Siluriform fishes collected from the Rio Negro and Rio Solimões proved to be highly resistant to aquatic hypoxia. In all four species analysed in this study, aquatic oxygen consumption significantly decreased from normoxic levels at water PO2 values near 1 kPa. Air‐breathing activity was observed only in Sturisoma sp. (Rio Negro).

Rivers across the Amazon Basin are increasingly threatened by climate change and dam construction, which restrict fish movements. We combined climate projections with river‐network connectivity analyses to identify where suitable habitats for frugivorous and socioeconomically important fish are likely to persist and where access may be lost due to ...

Genetic variability of tambaqui broodstocks in the Brazilian state of Pará [PDF]
ABSTRACT The present study evaluated the genetic variability of the broodstocks of tambaqui hatcheries in the Brazilian state of Pará. Samples were obtained from the caudal fin of 110 broodstocks from one hatchery in each of four municipalities (Santarém, Peixe-Boi, Breu-Branco, and Ulianópolis), representing all the individuals of each hatchery stock.

Stress Nutrition in Aquatic Animals: From Definition to Practice
ABSTRACT Aquaculture faces numerous challenges, with stress being one of the major issues that lead to growth loss, metabolic disorders, weakened immunity, redox imbalance, and organ damage in aquatic animals. Nutritional intervention is one of the effective strategies to address these problems. Traditional research has primarily focused on the impacts

Monoterpenes: Functional Additives for Reducing Antibiotics in Aquaculture
ABSTRACT Aquaculture is a rapidly growing industry that supplies fish for global consumption. However, the intensive production practices have resulted in disease outbreaks, largely driven by the misuse of antibiotics. Natural alternatives, such as monoterpenes, which are biocompounds derived from essential oils obtained from plants like thyme and ...
