Stress Nutrition in Aquatic Animals: From Definition to Practice
Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.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
Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.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 ...

Genetic parameters and response to selection for growth in tambaqui
Animal, 2020 Although the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) is the most cultivated native fish species in Brazil, estimated breeding values for growth traits are rarely used for selection of superior individuals in commercial fingerling production. This study aimed to estimate the (co)variance components of growth traits.

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2006 O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da adição na ração das enzimas digestivas exógenas amilase, lipase e protease sobre o desempenho de tambaqui, em três experimentos independentes. Em cada experimento foi avaliado o efeito da inclusão de uma enzima na ração em diferentes porcentagens: 0,0, 0,05, 0,1 e 0,2%, cada uma com quatro repetições ...

Aquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Despite the increasing use of plant‐based energy ingredients in aquaculture, few studies have evaluated the digestibility of practical diets formulated with these ingredients in an integrated manner with the metabolic responses, intestinal health, and productive performance of fish. This limits the understanding of their nutritional effects. This study

Genetic variation in plasma transferrins of tambaqui, Colossoma macropomum (CUVIER 1818)
, 1985 Blood specimens of tambaqui, Colossoma macropomum, an Amazonian fish of commercial importance, were examined for transferrin variants by treating blood plasma specimens with rivanol before electrophoretic analyses in starch gel media.

Aquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The aquaculture industry is increasingly transitioning toward sustainable aquafeeds, driven by the economic and environmental necessity to replace marine‐derived fishmeal and fish oil with plant‐ and insect‐based alternatives. This nutritional shift introduces physiological challenges, accelerating the search for natural, sustainable functional ...
