Management of fed-fish culture practices, at present, stands on two broad feed categories,(i)
formulated proteinaceous aquafeeds and (ii) the natural resources. Judicious use of the later …

Gut microbiota and their metabolites are increasingly recognized for their crucial role in
regulating the health and growth of the host. The mechanism by which the gut microbiome …

In the studies of aquatic ecology, periphyton has been uncared for despite its vital role in
nutrient uptake and transfer to the upper trophic organisms. Being the component of food …

Periphyton is ubiquitous in paddy field, but its importance in influencing the bioavailability of
phosphorus (P) in paddy soil has been rarely recognized. A paddy field was simulated in a …

Nutrient-rich effluents from aquaculture can be reused to enhance the development of
natural food to feed fish in periphyton-based systems. A periphyton-based system is a …

In land-based pond cultures, periphyton is considered to be a complementary food source
for cultured fish. In cage aquaculture, studies on the use of periphyton are scarce and do not …

Phosphorus use efficiency (PUE) in paddy fields is low, and this fertilizer has lower
availability to rice plants. Recently, the application of periphyton to regulate nutrient …

The integration of aquaculture within wider farming systems has been promoted as a way of
increasing food production, conserving the environment and ensuring food security. Such …

We evaluated the production costs and the profitability of using bamboo substrates to
enhance periphyton production in cages, in combination with a restricted diet and reduced …

Aquaculture has a highly promising role in producing fish biomass and fulfilling nutrient
requirement for the growing population on the E arth. Worldwide, there exists several …
