A comprehensive and authoritative synthesis on the successful
production of fish larvae Success Factors for Fish Larval
Production is a vital resource that includes the most current
understanding of larval biology, in the context of larval
production. The text covers topics such as how external
(environmental and nutritional) and internal (molecular/
developmental/ physiological/ behavioral/ genetic) factors interact
in defining the phenotype and quality of fish larvae and juveniles.
The expert contributors review broodstock genetics and husbandry,
water quality, larval nutrition and feeding, growth physiology,
health, metamorphosis, underlying molecular mechanisms, including
epigenetics, for development, larval behavior and environmental
conditions. Compiled by members of a European Union-funded
consortium of top researchers, Success Factors for Fish Larval
Production provides a wide-range of authoritative information for
the aquaculture industry and academia. In addition to a wealth of
information, the authors review research and commercially
applicable larval quality indicators and predictors. The successful
production of good-quality fish larvae is of vital importance for
fish farming and stock enhancement of wild fisheries: * Includes
contributions from a consortium of noted researchers and experts in
the field * Deals with on how to improve egg quality and larval
production via broodstock management and nutrition * Suggests ways
to control the phenotype of juveniles and table-size fish via
manipulations of the conditions of larval rearing (e.g.,
epigenetics) * Includes ideas for optimizing diet composition,
formulation, and technology * Integrates knowledge and practical
experience in order to help advancing excellence in aquaculture
Success Factors for Fish Larval Production offers fish biologists,
developmental biologists, physiologists and zoologists the most
current and reliable information on the topic. All those working in
fish aquaculture facilities and hatcheries in particular will find
great interest to their commercial operations within this book.
