Aquaculture, the breeding of fish or other organisms in controlled aquatic conditions, is a diverse field of research, and new possibilities for more efficient and sustainable aquaculture practices are always presenting themselves. This book seeks to inform the reader of the latest developments in the fields. The first part of the book focuses on sustainable aquaculture techniques. The contributors examine topics including the impacts of aquaculture on habitats, development of freshwater species with aquaculture potential, and sustainable techniques for selected live feed culture. Part two presents studies in key topics in aquaculture. Here, the contributors present their findings on topics including in vitro culture of freshwater pearl mussel, an evaluation of new developments in biotechnology and IPR, and rDNA fingerprinting for determination of fish origin. Finally, part three considers health and environmental issues. New findings are offered on topics including aquacultural safety and health, and the rhabdoviral model for improving DNA fish vaccines in aquaculture. The book will be a useful source of new insights for researchers and professionals in aquaculture.
