Abstract:
Fish and fish products contain important source of nutrient that provides benefits upon consumption. The increasing demand and high utilization of fish have caused a market shift in the fishery industry. Although fish is nutritious, some consumers do not prefer to consume fish in its original form because of its fishy taste, fishy odour and it is highly perishable. To further promote the consumption of fish, the production of fish products and frying are applied to suit consumers’ preferences. Frying is commonly used in various food premises as it changes the characteristics of the fish and fish products, especially the taste and texture. However, the increase in awareness has changed the perception of the consumer as they prefer healthier food in their lifestyle. Despite the increase in awareness, some consumers still prefer fried foods and food products due to their unique sensory properties and texture. To understand the effects of frying on foods, several parameters during frying are studied. Frying temperature, frying cycle, frying time, frying techniques and frying oils used are parameters that could affect the physicochemical and sensory attributes of the fish and fish products. Repetitive frying could cause the formation of toxins and alter the fatty acid content in the fish, fish products and frying oils. This changes the taste and alters the composition of the foods. Meanwhile, different frying times, oil and techniques cause significant changes to the chemical composition, sensory attributes, lipid oxidation, fat content, oil absorption and fatty acid profiles of the fish and fish product. This review aimed to gather information specifically on the changes in fish and fish products upon frying at different frying cycles, time, temperature, oils, and techniques.

Abstract:
Food is a necessity of human beings, and the consumption of food is aimed at obtaining energy and nutrients necessary for the growth and proper functioning of the body. However, food can also be a vehicle for various diseases, and the causal agents can have physical, chemical or biological origin with relevance to health due to their incidence, mortality and negative consequences in the population. Bacteria are the main agents of biological origin associated with foodborne diseases. Among these microorganisms are species of the genus Campylobacter, which cause a zoonosis with one of the highest incidences globally, known as Campylobacteriosis. This document provides an overview of foodborne diseases, specifically the causal agents of Campylobacteriosis, including the different measures of control and prevention for this disease in different foods such as poultry, milk, meat, and fish, among others. It also covers the phenomenon of resistance to antimicrobials by these pathogens and the health implications to consumers. The above can generate and maintain safety practices in food production for the protection of public health in different regions around the world.

Abstract:
Listeria monocytogenes is a food pathogen responsible for listeriosis, a relevant disease in public health worldwide. The genus Listeria spp., corresponds to cosmopolitan bacteria and capable of surviving different adverse conditions, which increases the risk for the food to be contaminated at any stage of the food chain. Fish and fish products are foods of high production level and, due to their chemical or nutritional composition, are highly susceptible to deterioration and contamination by pathogens in their productive chain relating to cases of listeriosis. Derived from the incidence and human mortality due to causative agents of listeriosis, along with their resistance to antimicrobials, they have acquired a greater emphasis on human health, animal health and food industry, resulting in the implementation of safety systems such as good hygiene practices, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) system, analytical methods and microbiological criteria, as some of the actions to contribute to the food safety and public health protection. The purpose of this review document is to provide, in a general way, aspects involved in foodborne illnesses, specifically listeriosis and its association with fish as a transmitting food, considering the prevention and control measures of this disease through food. It also includes aspects related to antimicrobial resistance by bacterial isolates obtained from fish, their implications and health risks.

Abstract:
Food safety is considered an essential characteristic of food quality and is one that establishes that food, when ingested, will not cause harm to the consumer's health. Foodborne diseases are considered a health problem worldwide due to their incidence and mortality; these diseases have different causal agents of a physical, chemical and biological nature, being the latter mainly related to disease outbreaks where they are included (viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi), generally affecting low-income population groups, children, the elderly, pregnant women, and immunosuppressed. This review focused on giving a general description of food-borne diseases, mainly those developed in fish, highly nutritious food that is highly susceptible to deterioration and contamination by various chemical and biological hazards. Among the fish with the highest production for marketing and consumption is tilapia, which can be a vehicle for transmission of various pollutants of biological origin, including Helicobacter pylori, which has been considered an emerging food pathogen with a considerable impact on human health, whose food contamination and infection may be due to different factors such as inadequate hygiene practices at different stages of the food chain, putting the safety of these foods, and/or the health of consumers at risk.

Abstract:
Given the critical role of food justice organizations in providing for the 49 million Americans who live in food insecure households, one of the most important questions that can be answered today is what determines the success of such an organization. This paper analyzes case studies from Sitka, AK and Portland, OR, aiming to communicate a better understanding of which factors result in an organization’s success and which factors lead it to failure. That information is used to establish guidelines that other organizations seeking to be relevant contributors to the food justice movement can follow. Ultimately, my research discovers that in order for a food justice-oriented program to maximize its success it should educate the people it serves, have ample financial support, and fit soundly with its host community’s strengths, resources, and values.

Abstract:
The human appetite for seafood has intensified and so has overfishing and damage to marine ecosystems. However, the true demand for seafood is often not captured in the national or United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) statistics. The underreporting of catches is prevalent worldwide, which inevitably leads to mismanagement, and justifies data improvements via catch reconstructions. For instance, marine fisheries catch reconstructions for 1950 to present for Mozambique and the United Republic of Tanzania show that the small-scale fisheries sectors in both countries are underreported. Overall, reconstructed marine fisheries catches for Mozambique and Tanzania were respectively 6.2 and 1.7 times greater than those reported by FAO. Similarly, shark catches have been underreported globally, and reconstruction of Ecuador’s mainland shark landings for 1979 to 2004 shows that shark landings were an estimated 7,000 tonnes per year, or nearly half a million sharks, and 3.6 times greater than those reported by FAO from 1991 to 2004. Over the past decades, as we realize fish catches are larger than officially reported and demand for seafood is outstripping the availability of wild resources, conservation groups have been attempting to change patterns of household consumption, particularly in North America and Europe. These groups aim to reduce overfishing and encourage sustainable fishing practices using tools like consumer awareness campaigns and seafood certification schemes. But many factors impede these efforts, such as the renaming and mislabeling of seafood, the absence of a significant price premium for certified seafood, and, most importantly, a lack of demonstrably improved conservation status for the species that are meant to be protected. This dissertation presents market-based initiatives that may strengthen current initiatives, e.g. global adoption of chain of custody standards, working higher in the demand chain, connecting seafood to climate change, and diverting small fish away from the fishmeal industry into human food markets. Also, conservation groups should consider investing as much effort into the elimination of harmful fisheries subsidies, the primary perverse incentive encouraging excess fishing capacity, as they put into altering consumer behavior. Finally, conservationists can learn from the latest research on the psychology of savings and investment. If these market efforts complement more marine protected areas and regulations, it may be possible to ensure fish as food and wildlife for both current and future generations.

Abstract:
The work presented in this thesis examined the effects of dietary fish oil replacement on fish innate and adaptive immune function, disease resistance tissue histopathology and fatty acid composition of lipids in peripheral blood leukocytes. Dietary trials with Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), Sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax), Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) and Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) were conducted in which fish oil was replaced by rapeseed oil, linseed oil, olive oil, palm oil, echium oil or a mixture of these oils. A significant reduction in respiratory burst activity was most pronounced in salmon and sea bass fed high levels of rapeseed oil-containing diets. In addition, rapeseed and olive oil inclusion in the diets of salmon and sea bass significantly reduced the head kidney macrophage phagocytic capacity to engulf yeast particles. A reduction in prostaglandin E2 levels was found to be related to a reduction in macrophage respiratory burst activity in salmon fed linseed oil diets and sea bass fed a dietary blend of linseed, palm and rapeseed oils. Changes in macrophage function may be a contributing factor causing a reduction in serum lysozyme activity observed in some trials. No significant differences were detected in cumulative mortality of Atlantic salmon fed an equal blend of linseed and rapeseed oils challenged with Aeromonas salmonicida. However, resistance to Vibrio anguillarium was significantly impaired in Atlantic salmon fed a blended oil diet containing linseed, rapeseed and palm oil. The major histological difference of fish fed vegetable oil diets was the accumulation of lipid droplets in their livers. Dietary fatty acid composition significantly affected the fatty acid composition of peripheral blood leukocytes. Generally, fish fed vegetable oil diets had increased levels of oleic acid, linoleic acid and a-linolenic acid and decreased levels of eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid and a lower n-3/n-6 ratio than fish fed a FO diet. In conclusion, the results from these studies suggest that farmed fish species can be cultured on diets containing vegetable oils as the added oil source. However, feeding high levels of some vegetable oils may significantly alter some immune responses in the fish, especially head kidney macrophage function, disease resistance and, in addition, may cause an increase in tissue histopathology.

Abstract:
Sustainable development embraces economics, society and nature and is the global context for this PhD-thesis. Modern fishery is dependent on fossil fuels, which use is the antithesis of sustainable fishery. Environmental degradation is closely related to health aspects, which are increasingly important to consumers and other stakeholders. For the fish food product (FFP), the main focus of prior research has been on threatened stock populations. Less attention has been focused on environmental problems related to the use of energy and material, not only by the fishing vessel, but for the whole life cycle of the FFP. This PhDproject is a contribution to closing this gap. The overall goal of the research behind this thesis is to demonstrate a methodology for systematic environmental life cycle assessments (LCA) of FFP with an emphasis on fishery. LCA has been developed for commodity products and this work contributes to expanding the application to food products. LCA is the basis for creating an environmental product declaration (EPD) by following the product category rules (PCR). Systems engineering principles and processes provide the tools to systematize the analysis of the life cycle of the FFP, by modelling the fish food production systems. Systems engineering with input from LCA, stakeholder analysis and eco-labelling is used to develop a methodology presented as a framework for environmental analysis of the FFP. Three studies are combined into a single case study resulting in an LCA of fish products that has been used to develop an EPD for Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) based on the PCR developed for wild caught fish. Environmental performance indicators relevant for FFP have been explored and a number of parameters are recommended for use in communicating the environmental impact of a FFP. Greatest attention has been on the fishing vessels because their energy consumption accounts for the largest environmental impacts of the FFP. The research results contribute to better transparency about the environmental impact of the life cycle of FFP and thereby support more sustainable decision-making in the fishery sector. In the future, the framework developed for environmental life cycle assessment of FFPs, could be expanded to other food products and so be used to compare different food products against each other.
En bærekraftig utvikling omfatter økonomi, samfunn og natur og er utgangspunktet for denne doktorgradsavhandlingen. Dagens fiskerier er avhenging av fossile energikilder, noe som skaper vansker for en bærekraftig utvikling. Miljøproblemer er nært beslektet med helseproblemer, som blir viktigere og viktigere for forbrukere og andre interessenter. Hovedfokuset innenfor forskning på fisk har vært på hvordan overfiske kan unngås. Andre miljøproblemer, slik som klimaendringer, forurensning av vann og luft som et resultat av energi- og materialbruk har vært lavere prioritert. Dette gjelder ikke bare for fiskebåten, men hele livsløpet til fiskematproduktet, fra bunn til bord. Dette doktorgradsprosjektet er et bidrag til å rette opp denne skjevheten. Hovedmålet med forskningen bak denne doktorgradsavhandlingen er å demonstrere en metodikk for systematiske livsløpsanalyser (LCA) av fiskematprodukter, med hovedvekt på fisket. Prinsipper og prosesser fra systemteknikk kan benyttes i analyser av miljøproblemer. Denne forskningen er den første til å benytte seg av systemteknikk for å analysere miljøproblemer i tilknytning til fiskematproduktet. Livsløpstenkning er en helhetlig tilnærming og gjør at forskyvning av miljøproblemer fra en fase til en annen i livsløpet blir synlig. LCA har blitt utviklet for vareproduserende industri. Denne forskningen er et bidrag til å anvende LCA også for matproduksjon, med større komplekse systemer som verdikjeder for fisk der fiskebåten og fangstmetodikk utgjør en vesentlig del av miljøprestasjonene. LCA danner grunnlaget for å utarbeide miljødeklarasjoner, kalt EPD, hvis retningslinjer er fastsatt i produktkategorireglene, såkalte PCR. Systemteknikk i kombinasjon med LCA, interessentanalyse og EPD blir brukt til å utvikle et rammeverk for miljøanalyser av fiskeproduktets livsløp. Et sett av forskjellige studier, sammensatt til et case-studie, har resultert i en LCA av fiskeprodukter som har blitt brukt til å utvikle en EPD for sild (Clupea harengus) basert på PCRen utviklet for villfanget fisk. Miljøprestasjonsindikatorer relevante for fiskematprodukter er blitt undersøkt og et utvalg har blitt foreslått for bruk i kommunikasjon av miljøpåvirkning fra fiskematprodukter. Størst fokus har vært på fiskebåten, da særlig dennes energiforbruk bidrar til den største miljøpåvirkningen. Forskningsresultatene bidrar til økt transparens hva gjelder miljøbelastningen fra fiskeprodukter og er dermed et bidrag til å drive utviklingen i fiskerisektoren i en bærekraftig retning. Videre utvikling kan være å utvide rammeverket for fiskematprodukter til også å omfatte flere matprodukter, slik at disse kan sammenlignes.
Nachhaltige Entwicklung beinhaltet Ökonomie, Gesellschaft und Natur und ist der Ausgangspunkt dieser Dissertation. Moderne Fischerei ist von fossilen Energiequellen abhängig, was Schwierigkeiten für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung bereitet. Umweltprobleme sind stark mit gesundheitlichen Problemen verbunden, welche immer größere Bedeutung für Verbraucher und andere Betroffene annehmen. Schwerpunkt der Fischereiforschung war bislang die Überfischung der Fischressourcen. Anderen Umweltproblemen, wie Klimaänderung, Verunreinigung von Luft, Boden und Wasser, resultierend aus Energie- und Materialverbrauch wurde bisher weniger Beachtung geschenkt. Das gilt nicht nur für den Produktzyklus des Fischfangschiffs, sondern auch für den ganzen Lebenszyklus des Fischereierzeugnisses, vom Meeresboden auf den Tisch. Diese Dissertation leistet einen Beitrag zum Ausgleich dieses Ungleichgewichts. Das Hauptziel dieser Forschung ist die Demonstration einer Methodik zur systematischen Ökobilanzierung von Fischereierzeugnissen, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf dem Fischfangprozess liegt. Prinzipien und Prozesse des Systems Engineering kommen in Analysen von Umweltproblemen zur Anwendung. Diese Forschung ist die erste, die das Systems Engineering verwendet, um Umweltprobleme in Verbindung mit Fischereierzeugnissen zu analysieren. Ökobilanzen sind ein ganzheitlicher Ansatz, um Problemverlagerung zwischen den Lebenszyklusphasen eines Produktes zu erkennen und zu vermeiden. Ökobilanzen wurden ursprünglich für Verbrauchsgüter entwickelt. Diese Forschung leistet einen Beitrag, diesen Ansatz auch auf Lebensmittel mit großen komplexen Systemen wie die Wertkette für Fisch, wo das Fischereischiff und verschiedene Fangtechniken einen wesentlichen Teil der Umweltleistung ausmachen, zu übertragen. Ökobilanzen bilden die Grundlage, um Umweltdeklarationen, deren Regeln und Anforderungen in den Produktkategorieregeln festgelegt sind, zu entwickeln. Systems Engineering in Kombination mit der Ökobilanzmethode, Interessentenanalyse und Umweltdeklarationen wird verwendet, um einen Rahmen für Umweltanalysen der Lebenszyklen von Fischereierzeugnissen zu entwickeln. Resultate einer Kombination unterschiedlicher Studien, zusammengesetzt zu einer Fallstudie, werden benutzt um;  Umweltdeklarationen für Hering (Clupea harengus) basierend auf den für wild gefangenen Fisch entwickelten Produktkategorieregeln zu demonstrieren,  Umweltleistungsindikatoren mit Relevanz für das Fischereierzeugnis zu untersuchen, und  eine Auswahl davon zur Bekanntgabe von Umwelteinwirkung durch Fischereierzeugnisse zu empfehlen. Der Schwerpunkt lag dabei auf dem Fischfangschiff, weil dessen Energieverbrauch die größte Umwelteinwirkung ausmacht. Die Forschungsresultate tragen zur einen höheren Transparenz der Umweltbelastung durch Fischereierzeugnisse bei und führen so die Entwicklung innerhalb der Fischerei in eine nachhaltige Richtung. Künftig könnte die in dieser Dissertation entwickelte Methode zur Untersuchung von Fischereierzeugnissen auf weitere Lebensmittel ausgedehnt werden, so dass ein Vergleich unterschiedlicher Lebensmittel möglich wird.

Abstract:
This study addressed a fundamental question in applied ecology and conservation; what is the predatory impact of introduced piscivorous sport fish on imperiled native fish populations? More specifically, which of many introduced species and size-classes represent the greatest threats and should be targeted for control? In order to explore this important question, an integrated analysis of stable isotopes, quantified observed diet analysis, and stable isotope mass-balance models were used to quantify trophic interactions. These tools were used to construct food web models that were then compared to draw inferences regarding the relative contribution of prey fish, including rare native fish, to the diet of introduced sport fish. The stable isotope-derived food web illustrated a slight decoupling in energy flow between a pelagic and a benthic-littoral sub-web. The quantified diet analysis suggested piscivory was low overall, and that the introduced sport fish assemblage relied heavily on zooplankton and aquatic insect prey. The integrated stable isotope and quantified diet analysis demonstrated that the consumption of prey fish, particularly pelagic prey fish, was typically underestimated using stomach content analyses. From the evaluation, comparison, and integration of food web models, I suggest that substantial predation was occurring on the early life stages of Utah Lake fishes, including native fishes, and it was not being observed using stomach content analysis. My comparative modeling demonstrated that introduced sport fish are an impediment to native fish conservation and identified the small size-class of white bass as the most immediate threat.

Abstract:
This project aims to provide fish keepers with a safe and simple way to feed their pets while abroad or in any other situation where they do not have the ability to feed their fish by hand. Overfeeding is an unfortunate albeit common reason for mass death in an otherwise safe and healthy aquarium. While overfeeding to land dwelling pets might have negative health implications, the rapid damage seen in an aquarium is unparalleled in other environments. This is due to the release of ammonia that occurs when excess food (and partially fecal matter) is decomposed. Moderate feedings provide adequate nutrition for the pets, while keeping ammonia production at a level where it can be converted to nitrite and lastly the rather harmless compound nitrate. Most, if not all, feeders on the market today base their feedings solely off of volume, but this can lead to large variations in feeding size, due to variations in air between pellets in the feeding portions. By adding a failsafe with weight, we can fully prevent any chance of overfeeding, and thus ensuring a long and healthy life for our pets. Overall the goals of a safe fish feeder were accomplished, although the weighing was not as accurate as it optimally would have been.
Med det här projektet syftar vi på att tillförse akvarieägare med ett tryggt och enkelt sätt att mata sina fiskar när de är utomlands eller av annan anledning inte har möjlighet att mata för hand. Övermatning är en olycklig men dessvärre vanlig anledning till massdöd i ett annars hälsosamt akvarium. Även om övermatning hos landdjur kan ha ohälsosamma konsekvenser, så är det aldrig lika skadligt på kort sikt som det är i ett akvarium. Det här beror på att överbliven mat (och även till viss del avföring) i en vattenmiljö snabbt omvandlas till ammoniak under förmultning. Lagom stora matningar ger all näring fiskar behöver, medan enbart en halt ammoniak som kan omvandlas till nitrit och därefter det relativt harmlösa nitratet uppstår snabbt nog för att vara ofarligt. De flesta - om än inte alla - fiskmatare på marknaden idag baserar sina portioner på enbart volym. På grund av variationer i mängden luft mellan foder så kan då mängden mat ha stor variation. Genom att lägga till en säkring med vikt, så kan vi helt och hållet motverka all risk för övermatning, och på så vis säkerställa ett långt och hälsosamt liv för våra husdjur. Överlag lyckades vi skapa ensäker fiskmatare, men dessvärre var inte vågen lika noggrann som den optimalt hade varit.

Abstract:
Thermally processed menhaden products were evaluated as potential food products. Nine canned menhaden products judged to be satisfactory in pilot studies were canned or pasteurized and evaluated by a six member semi—trained panel. Panelists scored product characteristics of menhaden products and commercially canned tuna in oil, tuna in water and mackerel. Three canned menhaden products were incorporated in "pizza" sauce and in fish salad recipes that were scored for preference by consumer panelists. Objective measurements for drained weight and total fluid were recorded. Descriptive analysis of the nine canned menhaden products indicated that the dressed and filleted menhaden products were similar in the firmness, flakiness, chewiness, moisture, and fish flavor characteristics. Canned minced menhaden products were significantly different from the dressed and filleted fish products in the texture characteristics: firmness, flakiness and chewiness. Plots drawn for comparison of mean characteristic scores of each menhaden product and the three comparison products (tuna in oil, tuna in water, mackerel) indicated that the canned filleted menhaden in oil was judged by a semi—trained panel to be similar to the two commercially canned tuna products. Consumer preference scores for the menhaden products were significantly different from the scores for comparison products used in the pizza sauces and fish salads. The menhaden fish salads and the menhaden pizza sauce were scored lower. Objective measurements indicated that the use of an alum and citric acid brine increased percent weight loss and percent fluid loss. The minced menhaden product brined in alum and citric acid had the highest recorded percent weight loss and percent fluid loss. Pilot study and consumer preference panelists indicated that the alum and citric acid brine imparted a metallic aftertaste to the canned menhaden products.

Abstract:
Aquaponics is an eco-friendly system for food production utilizing aquaculture and hydroponics to cultivate fish and crop without soil. It is an inexpensive symbiotic cycle between the fish and plant. In an aquaponic system, fish waste (ammonia) is fed into the plant bed which acts as a bio-filter and takes the nitrate which is essential to grow vegetation. The fresh new water is then returned to the fish enclosure to restart the cycle. A unique advantage of an aquaponic system is conserving water more effectively compared to traditional irrigation systems. Conservation of water is accomplished by recirculating water between the plant bed and the fish habitat continuously. Organic fertilization of plants using dissolved fish waste is the other benefit of aquaponics. Utilizing plants as a natural alternative to other filters, requires less monitoring of water quality. In our project, an aquaponics system was designed and built in Lyle Center for Regenerative Studies at California State Polytechnic University of Pomona. The future purpose of our project is finding an optimized situation for the aquaponics system to produce food and save water more efficiently and eco-friendly.

Abstract:
This building block explores key statistics about competing uses for food system resources, focusing on the use of land, crops and wild fish for feeding humans or feeding livestock – a trade-off known as feed-food competition. It also outlines different ways in which people interpret these figures and sets out how these differing perspectives link to broader debates about what we should eat and how we should produce food, particularly concerning what role (if any) livestock should play in the global food system.

Full text
Abstract:
The hypothalamic melanocortin system plays a central role in the regulation of food consumption and energy homeostasis in mammals. Accordingly, our working hypothesis in this project was that genetic editing of the mc4r gene, encoding Melanocortin Receptor 4 (MC4R), will enhance food consumption, feed efficiency and growth in fish. To test this hypothesis and to assess the utility of mc4r editing for the enhancement of feed efficiency and growth in fish, the following objectives were set: Test the effect of the mc4r-null allele on feeding behavior, growth, metabolism and survival in zebrafish. Generate mc4r-null alleles in tilapia and examine the consequences for growth and survival, feed efficiency and body composition. Generate and examine the effect of naturally-occurring mc4r alleles found in swordfish on feeding behavior, growth and survival in zebrafish. Define the MC4R-mediated and MC4R-independent effects of AgRP by crossing mc4r- null strains with fish lacking AgRP neurons or the agrpgene. Our results in zebrafish did not support our hypothesis. While knockout of the agrpgene or genetic ablation of hypothalamic AgRP neurons led to reduced food intake in zebrafish larvae, knockout (KO) of the mc4r gene not only did not increase the rate of food intake but even reduced it. Since Melanocortin Receptor 3 (MC3R) has also been proposed to be involved in hypothalamic control of food intake, we also tested the effectofmc3r gene KO. Again, contrary to our hypothesis, the rate of food intake decreased. The next step was to generate a double mutant lucking both functional MC3R and MC4R. Again, the double KO exhibited reduced food intake. Thus, the only manipulation within the melanocortin system that affected food intake in consistent with the expected role of the system was seen in zebrafish larvae upon agrpKO. Interestingly, despite the apparent reduced food intake in the larval stage, these fish grow to be of the same size as wildtype fish at the adult stage. Altogether, it seems that there is a compensatory mechanism that overrides the effect of genetic manipulations of the melanocortin system in zebrafish. Under Aim 3, we introduced the Xna1, XnB1l, and XnB2A mutations from the Xiphophorus MC4R alleles into the zebrafish MC4R gene. We hypothesized that these MC4R mutations would act as dominant negative alleles to increase growth by suppressing endogenous MC4R activity. When we examined the activity of the three mutant alleles, we were unable to document any inhibition of a co-transfected wild type MC4R allele, hence we did not introduce these alleles into zebrafish. Since teleost fish possess two agrpgenes we also tested the effect of KO of the agrp2 gene and ablation of the AgRP2 cells. We found that the AgRP2 system does not affect food consumption but may rather be involved in modulating the stress response. To try to apply genetic editing in farmed fish species we turned to tilapia. Injection of exogenous AgRP in adult tilapia induced significant changes in the expression of pituitary hormones. Genetic editing in tilapia is far more complicated than in zebrafish. Nevertheless, we managed to generate one mutant fish carrying a mutation in mc4r. That individual died before reaching sexual maturity. Thus, our attempt to generate an mc4r-mutant tilapia line was almost successful and indicate out non-obvious capability to generate mutant tilapia.

The use of aquaculture effluents in spray culture for the production of high protein macroalgae for shrimp aqua-feeds. United States Department of Agriculture, January 2013. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/2013.7597934.bard.

Full text
Abstract:
The FAO has projected a doubling in world demand for seafood during the 21 ed from aquaculture of marine fish and shrimps fed primarily on fishmeal-based aquafeeds. However, current practices of high intensity monoculture of shrimp in coastal ponds and fish in offshore pens have been strongly criticized as being ecologically and socially unsustainable. This view derives from un- checked eutrophication of coastal marine ecosystems from fish farm effluents, and the destruction of coastal estuarine ecosystems by shrimp farm constructions, plus aquaculture’s reliance on wild-caught small fish - which are excellent food for humans, but instead are rendered into fishmeal and fish oil for formulating aquafeeds. Fishmeal-sparing and waste- reduction aquafeeds can only delay the time when fed aquaculture product are priced out of affordability for most consumers. Additionally, replacement of fishmeal protein and fish oil by terrestrial plant sources such as soybean meal and oil directly raises food costs for human communities in developing nations. New formulations incorporating sustainably-produced marine algal proteins and oils are growing in acceptance as viable and practical alternatives. This BARD collaborative research project investigated a sustainable water-sparing spray/drip culture method for producing high-protein marine macrophyte meals for incorporation into marine shrimp and fish diets. The spray culture work was conducted at laboratory-scale in the USA (UCSD-SIO) using selected Gracilariaand Ulvastrains isolated and supplied by UCONN, and outdoors at pilot-scale in Israel (IOLR-NCM) using local strains of Ulvasp., and nitrogen/phosphorus-enriched fish farm effluent to fertilize the spray cultures and produce seaweed biomass and meals containing up to 27% raw protein (dry weight content). Auburn University (USA) in consultation with TAMUS (USA) used the IOLR meals to formulate diets and conduct marine shrimp feeding trials, which resulted in mixed outcomes, indicating further work was needed to chemically identify and remove anti-nutritional elements present in the IOLR-produced seaweed meals.

Full text
Abstract:
Objectives: To accomplish stable expression, inheritance of transgenes and growth improvement in transgenic channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, and common carp, Cyprinus carpio, containing growth hormone (GH) genes, develop transgenic fish with all fish constructs, determine the relationships between copy number, expression and growth, determine the combined affect of selective breeding and gene transfer and assess environmental risk of transgenic fish. To develop mechanisms of triploidization for transgenic carp. Results: Performance of transgenic channel catfish was made uniform by selection. Growth of channel catfish and common carp was improved 40-50% more by combining gene transfer of GH genes with selection and crossbreeding than with either selection of crossbreeding. Growth improvement of transgenic catfish was not strongly correlated with copy number and expression levels. Progress was made in producting triploid transgenic common carp. Insertion of salmonid GH gene did not alter reproductive performance in channel catfish. Transgenic channel catfish grew no faster than controls when they had to forage on natural food and transgenic individuals were slightly more vulnerable to predation indicating that fitness of transgenic individuals in natural conditions is less than or equal to non-transgenic channel catfish. Contribution to Agriculture: These experiments are the first to demonstrate that transgenic fish can increase aquaculture production in the aquaculture production in the aquaculture environment. This research also demonstrated that maximum benefit of gene transfer in farmed fish is attained when combined with traditional selective breeding.

Hoy, Michael D. Herons and Egrets. U.S. Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, August 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/2017.7208742.ws.

Full text
Abstract:
Herons and egrets commonly cause damage at aquaculture facilities and recreational fishing waters where fish are held at high densities. Fish-eating birds also can have an impact on intensively managed sport fisheries. Damage occurs when herons and egrets feed on fish purchased and released for recreational sport fishing activities. Values of these fish can be quite high given the intensity of management activities and the direct relationship of fishery quality to property value. Herons and egrets are freshwater or coastal birds of the family Ardeidae. Herons and egrets discussed in this section are all piscivorous. They are opportunistic feeders, however, and will consume small amphibians, insects, and reptiles. Due to these food preferences, herons and egrets are attracted to shallow lakes and human-made impoundments. Native bird species are covered under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and given federal protection. Depredation permits can be obtained through the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. In addition, individual states may require their own permits for legal take of these bird species.

A critical review of microbiological colonisation of nano- and microplastics (NMP) and their significance to the food chain. Food Standards Agency, April 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.46756/sci.fsa.xdx112.

Full text
Abstract:
Microplastics are extremely small mixed shaped plastic debris in the environment. These plastics are manufactured (primary microplastics) or formed from the breakdown of larger plastics once they enter the terrestrial, freshwater and marine environments (secondary microplastics). Over time, a combination of physical, photochemical and biological processes can reduce the structural integrity of plastic debris to produce microplastics and even further to produce nanoplastics. NMPs have been detected in both the aquatic and terrestrial environments and can be easily spread by water, soil and air and can be ingested by a wide range of organisms. For example, NMPs have been found in the guts of fish and bivalve shellfish. Microplastics have also been detected in food and in human faeces. Therefore, NMPs are not only found in the environment, but they may contaminate the food supply chain and be ingested by consumers. There is evidence suggesting that microorganisms are able to colonise the surfaces of microplastics and aggregates of nanoplastics. However, the risk to consumers posed by NMPs colonised with microorganisms (including those that are AMR) which enter the food supply chain is currently unknown.

Full text
Abstract:
The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) maintains breakwaters in Milwaukee Harbor. USACE’s Engineering With Nature® (EWN®) breakwater demonstration project created rocky aquatic habitat with cobbles (10–20 cm) covering boulders (6–8 metric tons) along a 152 m section. A prolific population of Hemimysis anomala, an introduced Pontocaspian mysid and important food source for local pelagic fishes, was significantly (p < .05) more abundant on cobbles versus boulders. Food-habits data of alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) and rainbow smelt (Osmerus mordax) provided evidence that H. anomala were a common prey item. Night surveys and gill netting confirmed O. mordax preferred foraging on the cobbles (p < .05) and consumed more H. anomala than at the reference site (p < .05). H. anomala comprised a significant portion of the diets of young-of-the-year (YOY) yellow perch (Perca flavescens), YOY largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), and juvenile rock bass (Ambloplites rupestris) caught on the breakwater. The natural features’ construction on the breakwater increased the available habitat for this benthopelagic macroinvertebrate and created a novel ecosystem benefiting forage fish and a nursery habitat benefiting nearshore game fish juveniles. These data will encourage the application of EWN concepts during structural repairs at other built navigation infrastructure.
