Linkage mapping, comparative genome analysis, and QTL detection for growth in a non-model teleost, the meagre Argyrosomus regius, using ddRAD sequencing
(Springer Nature, 2022-03-29)
Meagre (Argyrosomus regius), is a benthopelagic species rapidly emerging in aquaculture, due to its low food to biomass conversion rate, good fillet yield and ease of production. Tracing a species genomic ...
Gene expression analysis of the innate immune system during early rearing and weaning of meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Elsevier, 2019-10-06)
The present study is the first report of some representative innate immune genes in meagre (Argyrosomus regius) larvae. This study has specifically focused on the growth period from hatching to the ...
Parentage assignment, estimates of heritability and genetic correlation for growth-related traits in meagre Argyrosomus regius
(Elsevier, 2019-11-04)
Meagre is a relatively new aquaculture species with great potential in large scale European aquaculture. The primary objective of the study was to describe, for the first time, parentage allocation and ...
The effect of weaning diet type on grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) juvenile performance during the trophic shift from carnivory to omnivory
(Elsevier, 2019-12-11)
In captive grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) juveniles, the weaning stage overlaps the period where there are changes in the ontogeny of digestive enzymes as the fry transit from carnivory to omnivory. The ...
Review of the principal diseases affecting cultured meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Wiley, 2018-01-23)
Argyrosomus regius was recently introduced in European aquaculture as a promising species for diversification and with high potential for expansion in the coming years. The reports on pathologies affecting ...
The ontogeny of greater amberjack digestive and antioxidant defence systems under different rearing conditions: A histological and enzymatic approach
(Wiley, 2020-09-23)
An overall synchronization of morphological and physiological ontogenetic events of the digestive and antioxidant defence systems occurred in greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili) larvae reared under ...
Paired spawning with male rotation of meagre Argyrosomus regius using GnRHa injections, as a method for producing multiple families for breeding selection programs
(Elsevier, 2018-06-08)
Weekly gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) injections were used to induce spawning in paired male and female meagre (Argyrosomus regius) with a weekly rotation of the males, in order to produce ...
A cross-cultural perspective on impact of health and nutrition claims, country-of-origin and eco-label on consumer choice of new aquaculture products
(Elsevier, 2019-04-15)
Over the last decade, an increasing number of new value-added aquaculture products made their way onto the European market, as a response to growing demand for healthier diet, and more sustainable and ...
"One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish”: How ethical beliefs influence consumer perceptions of “blue” aquaculture products?
(Elsevier, 2019-05-16)
Respecting ethical beliefs of consumers is an important precondition for food manufacturers in their attempt to improve their positioning in the European food market. Based on a cross-cultural survey ...
Feeding habits and the influence of pellet diameter on the feeding responses of the flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) in captivity
(Elsevier, 2022-06-22)
The feeding habits and effect of the diameter of pelleted feeds on the feeding responses of wild juvenile and adult flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) in captivity were examined. Optimal pellet size ...
