Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aquaculture is growing, expanding and intensifying in almost all regions of the world, which plays a vital role in providing sustainable high-quality protein and poly-unsaturated fatty acids for human beings. However, some issues remain to be solved during aquaculture, such as metabolic liver disease, immunity decline, and oxidative stress caused by the irrational use of compound feed. Therefore, it is essential to further understand the physiological character of fish and explore the digestion, absorption, and metabolism of nutrients. This Special Issue aims to collect studies (original research articles, perspectives, reviews, and mini reviews) that focus on nutritional physiology and metabolism in relation to growth performance.
