Freshwater fish is a type of fish for consumption to substitute saltwater fish in areas far from the sea. Freshwater fish production is not as much as saltwater fish because the selection of freshwater fish is not suitable in the cultivation process. Therefore, a classification method to determine the ...
Milkfish is a cultivation commodity that contributes quite significantly on a national scale. But in practice, milkfish cultivation requires a large number of production costs, especially in the provision of fish feed. This research will discuss how to optimize the composition of milkfish feed, minimize ...
Distributed Generation (DG) is a very important alternative to the traditional approach of centralized generation and plays a major role not only in electric distribution systems but also in transmission systems. The incidence of DG in the electrical system (sub-transmission and/or distribution) could ...
The defense on food today is mostly depend on agriculture. However, it is predicted that on 2050, the food production from agriculture will reduce and be replaced by aquaculture. Indonesia may take the advantage from this situation. Since it has the second longest of its coastline in the world, Indonesia ...
The vision of the Mauritian's Ministry of Agro- Industry and Food security is to further develop the agricultural sector and to promote the agro-industry by focusing on safety, supply, quality, innovation and new technologies. This research work attempts to develop a smart aquaponics system that combines ...
In the water environment, we are dealing with a complex mixture of pollutants. Modern monitoring systems, mainly based on the physicochemical methods of monitoring the aquatic environment, cannot quickly determine the full range of pollutants and assess the degree of danger of an agent for the ecosystem ...
This paper deals with a possible approach to controlling marine fish stocks using the prey-predator model described by the Lotka-Volterra equations. The control strategy is conceived using the sliding mode control (SMC) approach which, based on the Lyapunov theorem, offers the possibility to track desired ...
The pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) is a Neotropical fish with remarkable productive performance for aquaculture. Knowledge of genetic resources in Neotropical fish is essential for their applications in breeding programs. The aim of this study was to characterize the genetic diversity of seven farmed ...
The arrival of large masses of drifting Sargassum since 2011 has caused changes in the natural dynamics of Caribbean coastal ecosystems. In the summer of 2015, unprecedented and massive mats of S. fluitans and S. natans have been observed throughout the Mexican Caribbean including exceptional accumulations ...
Abstract Background Helminths may protect against cardiometabolic risk through effects on inflammation and metabolism; their treatment may be detrimental to metabolic outcomes. Methods In a cluster-randomized trial in 26 Ugandan fishing communities we investigated effects of community-wide intensive ...
There are 19 Wnt genes in mammals that belong to 12 subfamilies. Wnt signaling pathways participate in regulating numerous homeostatic and developmental processes in animals. However, the function of Wnt10b in fatty acid synthesis remains unclear in fish species. In the present study, we uncovered the ...
Karyotypic data from Australian native freshwater fishes are scarce, having been described from relatively few species. Golden perch (Macquaria ambigua) and Murray cod (Maccullochella peelii) are two large-bodied freshwater fish species native to Australia with significant indigenous, cultural, recreational ...
Using gamma-ray-induced mutagenesis, we have developed a mutant (named G2) of Trichoderma virens that produced two- to three-fold excesses of secondary metabolites, including viridin, viridiol, and some yet-to-be identified compounds. Consequently, this mutant had improved antibiosis against the oomycete ...
The Brazilian-endemic greenbeack parrotfish, Scarus trispinosus Valenciennes, 1840, is the largest herbivorous reef fish in the South Atlantic. Following the sharp decline of large carnivorous reef fishes, parrotfishes (Labridae: Scarinae) were progressively targeted by commercial fisheries in Brazil, ...
Background Rates of childhood undernutrition are persistently high in Cambodia. Existing ready-to-use supplementary and therapeutic foods (RUSFs and RUTFs) have had limited acceptance and effectiveness. Therefore, our project developed and trialled a locally-produced, multiple micronutrient fortified ...
Ecological systems are made up of complex and often unknown interactions and feedbacks. Uncovering these interactions and feedbacks among species, ecosystem functions, and ecosystem services is challenging, costly, and time-consuming. Here, we ask: for which ecosystem features does resolving the uncertainty ...
Abstract Background Native to the Indo-Pacific region, the lionfish (Pterois volitans and P. miles) has been classified as an alien invasive species which has rapidly invaded the North-western Atlantic and the Caribbean. The primary concerns regarding lionfish pertain to their broad diet, general ...
Fresh fish are highly perishable food products and their short shelf-life limits their commercial exploitation and leads to waste, which has a negative impact on aquaculture sustainability. New non-thermal food processing methods, such as high pressure (HP) processing, prolong shelf-life while assuring ...
Red mark syndrome (RMS) is a fish disease caused by the infection of Rickettsial agents, especially affecting rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The disease is prevalent in many countries in Europe (France, Switzerland, Italy, and Slovenia), South America (Chile), North America (USA), and even Asia ...
Simple Summary In China, large quantities of maize are stored in grain depots for two years or more to mitigate the risk of natural disasters impacting feed supplies. However, it is unknown whether the use of long-term stored maize in diets will impair growth performance of piglets, and whether additional ...
