Optimal dietary lipid and protein level for growth and survival of catfish Clarias magur larvae

Optimal dietary lipid and protein level for growth and survival of catfish Clarias magur larvae

Large scale farming of Clarias magur (Indian walking catfish) is limited due to the non-availability of seed because of high mortality rate occurring during its larval rearing. The aim of the present study was to develop an optimal strategy based on the dietary lipids and proteins for enhancing the...

Zusammenfassung:Large scale farming of Clarias magur (Indian walking catfish) is limited due to the non-availability of seed because of high mortality rate occurring during its larval rearing. The aim of the present study was to develop an optimal strategy based on the dietary lipids and proteins for enhancing the larval survival. A 3-week study from 14-35 day post hatching (dph) was conducted to elucidate the effects of dietary lipid and protein level on growth, survival and mRNA expression of growth related genes of C. magur larvae.
