Lipids and their constituent fatty acids are, along with proteins, the major organic
constituents of fish, and they play major roles as sources of metabolic energy for growth …

Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the structural characteristics, biosynthesis and
functions of lipids in fish. The five different types of lipid classes are: triacylglycerols, wax …

It has been known for almost 25 years now that inclusion of intact phospholipids in the diet
could improve culture performance of various freshwater and marine fish species. The …

The sole, Solea senegalensis, is a common high-value flatfish in Southern Europe,
commonly reared in extensive aquacultural production in Portugal and Spain. Research in …

The senegal sole (Solea senegalensis) is a potential culture species in salt water ponds in
south Spain and Portugal. However, growth of an industry around this species is constrained …

Senegal sole aquaculture is at present limited due to poor reproduction of captive breeders
in many facilities. Temperature seems to play an important role in controlling reproduction of …

We examined the effect of dietary arachidonic acid (20: 4n-6, ARA) on growth, survival,
pigmentation and fatty acid composition of Senegal sole larvae using a dose–response …

We examined the effect of dietary docosahexaenoic acid (22: 6n-3, DHA) on growth,
survival, pigmentation and fatty acid composition of Senegal sole larvae using a dose …

To establish the changes which occur during embryogenesis and early larvae development,
eggs, yolk-sac larvae (one day old larvae) and absorbed yolk-sac larvae (three day old …

The concentration of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in neural tissues
is known to be crucial for effective prey capture from the time of first feeding in marine fish …
