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.

Evaluation of Different Doses of Tanacetum parthenium Extract (TPE) on Blood Biochemical Parameters and Oxidative Stress Liver Biomarkers of Fish

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Although medicinal plants can be used to reduce stress caused by transportation and handling and to prevent and treat certain diseases in fish, evaluating their safety for fish is essential before their use. This study aimed to evaluate the pharmacological effects and determine the safe dose of the Tanacetum parthenium (known as feverfew) extract (TPE)

Enzimas digestivas exógenas na alimentação de juvenis de tambaqui Exogenous digestive enzymes in tambaqui juvenile feeding

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 ...

Zingiber officinale (Ginger), Curcuma longa (Turmeric) and Cymbopogon nardus (Lemon Grass) Essential Oils Have Anti‐Dactylogyrideans Potential in Colossoma macropomum Cuvier 1816 (Tambaqui)

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Essential oils are composed of secondary metabolites derived from medicinal plants and have bioactive properties, such as antiparasitic activity. This study investigated the in vitro anti‐dactylogyridean efficacy of the Zingiber officinale, Curcuma longa and Cymbopogon nardus essential oils, as well as the acute toxicity for Colossoma ...

Global importance of Amazonian freshwaters

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 23, Issue 10, December 2025.
Amazonian freshwaters have large influences on regional and global climate, harbor remarkable and unique species, and are vital to human society. Nevertheless, as compared to their terrestrial counterparts in the Amazon, these freshwaters have received less attention from the international conservation community.

Threshold responses of floating meadow fish communities to floodplain forest cover in the lower Amazon River

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Forest cover is positively associated with fish biomass and fisheries yield in the Amazon River floodplain, and many species enter flooded forests to feed, spawn, or seek refuge from predation. Floating macrophyte beds, known as floating meadows, in Amazon floodplains support high fish diversity and serve as nursery habitat for many fishes of ...

Feeding rate and feeding frequency during the grow-out phase of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) in earthen ponds

Aquaculture Reports
Adequate feeding protocols are extremely important for the technical and economic feasibility of fish production systems. Two feeding rates, 3% and 4% body weight per day (3%BW and 4%BW), and two feeding frequencies, twice and three times a day, were ...
