Traditional fish stocks are in decline, yet fish products are continuously in demand, making fish culture the predominant means of supply. This dramatic expansion in fish farming has followed an intense and exciting period of research into the biology of farmed species.
Biology of Farmed Fish considers the biology underlying fish culture, focusing on developments over the last decade. The chapters, written by fish biologists who have made a significant contribution to the primary research literature, are broad in nature, covering aspects of the subject with reference to a range of species from around the world. By focusing more on the biology rather than the technologies of fish farming, this book provides a unique resource for researchers, postgraduate students, and professionals interested in aquaculture.
