Aquatic Animal Nutrition

Focusing on the interplay between aquatic ecology and aquaculture, this book explores how diets shape the digestive systems and microbiota of aquatic organisms, influencing their behavior and life history traits. It highlights the potential benefits of short-term starvation, which can enhance stress resistance in individuals and future generations. Additionally, it discusses the role of circadian rhythms in determining the toxicity or nutritional value of food, and how long-term dietary patterns can affect genetic evolution and speciation in aquatic species.
