Book excerpt: Fish Physiology, Volume 38 in this ongoing series, examines how the inherent potential of fish to express traits of economic value can be realized through aquaculture. Topics covered include the regulation of the reproductive cycle of captive fish, shifting carnivorous fish towards plant-based diets, defining the challenges, opportunities and optimal conditions for growth under intensive culture (including in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems), enhancing immune function and fish health during culture, identifying and managing maladaptive physiological responses to aquaculture stressors, establishing welfare guidelines for farmed fish, phenotypic and physiological responses to genetic modification, Zebrafish as a research tool, and the aquaculture of air-breathing fish. Contains contributions from an international board of authors, each with decades of aquaculture expertise Provides the most up-to-date information on the fundamental role that physiology plays in optimizing fish performance in aquaculture Provides the latest release in the Fish Physiology series that tackles how the manipulation of biological processes can be used to maximize the expression of beneficial production traits in fish aquaculture

Book Molecular Research in Aquaculture

Download or read book Molecular Research in Aquaculture written by Ken Overturf and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-07-23 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molecular Research in Aquaculture Molecular research and biotechnology have long been fields of study with applications useful to aquaculture and other animal sciences. Molecular Research in Aquaculture looks to provide an understanding of molecular research and its applications to the aquaculture industry in a format that allows individuals without prior experience in this area to learn about and understand this important field. Molecular Research in Aquaculture opens with an introductory chapter giving background information on the aquaculture industry and the development of the science and research methods to what is currently being used. From there it discusses how new, innovative techniques are now being converted and used for research in this field. Introductory chapters on basic molecular biological techniques, such as PCR, cloning, and hybridization, and their rationale provide the foundation for an in-depth look at molecular research and its specific applications. The remaining chapters review key areas of molecular research such as microarray analysis, quantitative PCR, and transgenics. Molecular Research in Aquaculture will be a valuable reference for professionals and researchers with an interest in the development of molecular technologies and their applications to the field of aquaculture. Coverage of basic molecular biological techniques and their rationale In-depth look at molecular research and their applications to aquaculture Valuable reference on the developments of this key area in aquaculture research

Book Aquaculture Biotechnology

Download or read book Aquaculture Biotechnology written by Garth L. Fletcher and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book looks at a broad spectrum of biotech research efforts and their applications to the aquaculture industry. Aquaculture Biotechnology provides key reviews that look at the application of genetic, cellular, and molecular technologies to enable fish farmers to produce a more abundant, resilient, and healthier supply of seafood. Aquaculture Biotechnology is divided into seven sections and nineteen chapters that cover topics ranging from broodstock improvement to fish health and gene transfer. With chapters provided by leading researchers and skillfully edited by top scientists in the field, this will be a valuable tool to researchers, producers, and students interested in better understanding this dynamic field of aquaculture.

Download or read book Swimming Physiology of Fish written by Arjan P. Palstra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-30 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In light of mounting fishing pressures, increased aquaculture production and a growing concern for fish well-being, improved knowledge on the swimming physiology of fish and its application to fisheries science and aquaculture is needed. This book presents recent investigations into some of the most extreme examples of swimming migrations in salmons, eels and tunas, integrating knowledge on their performance in the laboratory with that in their natural environment. For the first time, the application of swimming in aquaculture is explored by assessing the potential impacts and beneficial effects. The modified nutritional requirements of “athletic” fish are reviewed as well as the effects of exercise on muscle composition and meat quality using state-of-the-art techniques in genomics and proteomics. The last chapters introduce zebrafish as a novel exercise model and present the latest technologies for studying fish swimming and aquaculture applications.

Book Rearing Temperature s Effect on the Growth Performance  Nutrient Utilization and Immune Response of Growth Hormone Transgenic Female Triploid Atlantic Salmon  Salmo Salar

Download or read book Rearing Temperature s Effect on the Growth Performance Nutrient Utilization and Immune Response of Growth Hormone Transgenic Female Triploid Atlantic Salmon Salmo Salar written by Eric Ignatz and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examined the effect of rearing temperature on AquAdvantage Salmon (AAS; growth hormone transgenic female triploid Atlantic salmon) reared at 10.5°C, 13.5°C, 16.5°C from first feed to 1500 g. Fish reared at 16.5°C reached 1500 g in the shortest amount of time, however, thermal-unit growth coefficient (TGC) results showed that salmon reared at 10.5°C exhibited higher growth rates for most of the trial. Through analysis of whole-body and fillet samples at various growth stages, it was determined that rearing temperature significantly influenced composition, deposition rates and retention efficiencies of numerous nutrients. For example, AAS reared at 16.5°C diverted lipid storage away from muscle tissue into their viscera and were less efficient at retaining important nutrients, such as omega-3 fatty acids. By assessing the antiviral immune gene expression response of fish injected with polyriboinosinic polyribocytidylic acid (pIC), it was concluded that temperature significantly influenced immune responses of AAS. Based on transcript expression responses, as measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis, it appeared that a more robust immune response was mounted by fish reared at 10.5°C compared to 16.5°C. Collectively, these results help establish foundational knowledge that can guide future research to optimize commercial rearing of AquAdvantage Salmon.
