Accommodating the cost of growth and swimming in fish – the applicability of exercise-induced growth to juvenile hapuku (Polyprion oxygeneios)

Accommodating the cost of growth and swimming in fish – the applicability of exercise-induced growth to juvenile hapuku (Polyprion oxygeneios)

Induced-swimming can improve the growth and feed conversion efficiency of finfish aquaculture species, such as salmonids and Seriola sp., but some species, such as Atlantic cod, show no or a negative productivity response to exercise. As a possible explanation for these species-specific differences,...
