There is a large amount of scientific literature on digestive enzymes activity during fish larval
development. Nevertheless, most of this information refers to descriptive aspects of the …

This chapter reviews the ontogeny and physiology of larval development in the Sparidae
family and provides a comparative view of the larval biology of the species, highlighting …

The marine fish larvae mostly rely on livefeed, with certain nutritional deficiencies such as
poor long chain fatty acids, in spite of recent progress in developing artificial feed. Thus, the …

The pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) is a species with a high potential for aquaculture and a
valuable food with high market acceptance. The aim of the study was to evaluate the …

The ontogenesis and specific activities of pancreatic and intestinal enzymes were
investigated in sharpsnout sea bream, Diplodus puntazzo, during larval development until …

The present research was conducted to provide insight into digestive larval capacity in
Acanthopagrus latus larvae from hatching up to 30 days after hatching (DAH). Newly …

The ontogenic development of the main digestive enzymes (proteases, amylase and lipase)
in the red porgy, Pagrus pagrus, larvae was assayed during the larval development. The …

This study was conducted to investigate the structural and ontogenetic development of the
skeletal system and digestive tract histologically and enzymatically in larvae of shi drum (U …

The pattern of gene expression and the activity of three proteases–trypsin, chymotrypsin,
and pepsin–were investigated from yolk sac stage to 35 days post hatching (dph) in larvae …

White seabream (Diplodus sargus) is today recognized as a potential species for
Mediterranean aquaculture. Still, scarce information exists on weaning practices in order to …
