Fish Nutrition, Fourth Edition is an up-to-date, authoritative
presentation of all key elements of the nutrition of fish and
crustaceans. As aquaculture is rapidly expanding, more than 200
herbivorous and carnivorous species occupy a diverse range of
ecological niches, and have therefore evolved to utilize a wide
array of food sources. This new edition highlights these
differences and covers the complexity and challenges associated
with fish nutrition, addressing nutrient requirements to produce
high-quality, healthful and sustainable resources, the essential
nutrients for fish species, including proteins and amino acids,
vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids, a feed quality
assessment, and fish pathology. Led by a team of international
experts, this edition provides readers with new information on the
use of high-throughput technologies in fish nutrition research, the
role of feeds on the community structure of the microbiome, and
advances in essential nutrient requirements.
Fish, and particularly zebrafish, have become the fastest-growing
segment of the research population. They offer several advantages,
in terms of biology and technologies to apply, and thus are
employed in numerous research fields. Laboratory Fish in Biomedical
Research: Biology, Husbandry and Research Applications for
Zebrafish, Medaka, Killifish, Swordtail Fish, Cavefish,
Stickleback, Goldfish and Danionella Translucida addresses the
relevant and increasing need to collect cutting-edge knowledge on
husbandry, maintenance, welfare and experimental protocols of the
most common freshwater species under standard laboratory
conditions.
