Pinna nobilis in suboptimal environments are more tolerant to disease but more vulnerable to severe weather phenomena
(Elsevier, 2020-11-30)
We examined a disease outbreak of the fan mussel, Pinna nobilis (L.), in the Alfacs Bay (South Ebro Delta, Spain) during a period of two years in three zones exposed to a summer salinity gradient resulting ...
Trophic role and predatory interactions between the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus, and native species in open waters of the Ebro Delta
(Elsevier, 2024-01-14)
The Ebro Delta has become a major blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) fishery area in the NW Mediterranean, but there is limited information on factors controlling the abundance of populations in open waters, ...
Assessing the economic impact of key operational factors on grow-out farms producing European sea bass under different scenarios of production
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-11-05)
The aim of this work is to evaluate how changes in a set of different key operational factors (e.g., the unit sales price, the fingerling unit cost, the feed unit cost, and so on) would impact on the ...
Physiological Benefits of Dietary Lysophospholipid Supplementation in a Marine Fish Model: Deep Analyses of Modes of Action
(MDPI, 2023-04-18)
Given the hydrophilic structure of lysophospholipids (LPLs), their dietary inclusion translates into a better emulsifying capacity of the dietary components. The present study aimed to understand the ...
Dietary fatty acid profiling in plant protein‐rich diets affects the reproductive performance, egg fatty acid profile and haematological parameters in female rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
(Wiley, 2019-05-03)
The influence of dietary fish oil (FO) substitution with blends of vegetal oils (VO: canola, linseed, olive, sunflower, corn and coconut oils) in plant protein‐rich diets on reproductive performance and ...
Linking stocking densities and feeding strategies with social and individual stress responses on gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata)
(Elsevier, 2019-10-24)
Intensive aquaculture and poor management practices can cause stress and compromise welfare of farmed fish. This study aimed to assess the potential links between stocking densities and feeding methods ...
Evaluating the repetitive mucus extraction effects on mucus biomarkers, mucous cells, and the skin-barrier status in a marine fish model
(Frontiers, 2023-01-18)
Among all the mucosal barriers, the skin and its surrounding mucus are possibly the main defensive tool against changes in the environment that can be harmful for fish. Due to the extraction of this ...
Reproductive performance of captive Senegalese sole, Solea senegalensis, according to the origin (wild or cultured) and gender
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2019-11-22)
Aim of study: The reproductive performance over a five year period in three different sole broodstocks: wild males with cultured females (WM), cultured males with wild females (CM), and a control of ...
Variations of the intestinal gut microbiota of farmed rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum), depending on the infection status of the fish
(Wiley, 2019-05-07)
Aims
The aim of the present study was to investigate the composition of the intestinal microbiota during the acute stage of a bacterial infection to understand how dysbiosis of the gut may influence ...
Genetic selection for high growth improves the efficiency of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) in using novel diets with insect meal, single-cell protein and a DHA rich-microalgal oil
(Elsevier, 2023-08-29)
Genetic selection and novel raw materials for aquafeeds are current key tools in the ongoing effort to increase the
productivity, efficiency, and sustainability of the aquaculture sector. Selective ...
