Fish have evolved a biological clock to cope with environmental cycles, so they display
circadian rhythms in most physiological functions including stress response. Photoperiodic …

The environment which living organisms inhabit is not constant and many factors, such as
light, temperature, and food availability, display cyclic and predictable variations. To adapt to …

Aquatic animals live in an acoustic world, prone to pollution by globally increasing noise
levels. Noisy human activities at sea have become widespread and continue day and night …

Increased aquaculture production has raised concerns about managing protocols to
safeguard the welfare of farmed fish, as consumers demand responsible aquaculture …

The circadian system is responsible for the temporal organisation of physiological functions
which, in part, involves daily cycles of hormonal activity. In this review, we analyse the …

Daily light and feeding cycles act as powerful synchronizers of circadian rhythmicity.
Ultimately, these external cues entrain the expression of clock genes, which generate daily …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the rhythms of feeding and locomotor activity, the
ability to synchronize to a fixed feeding time, and the influence of photoperiod on the growth …

A better knowledge of daily digestive function may help to improve the feeding efficiency in
farmed fish species. In this study, daily expression profiles of key genes related to the …

In the context of Mediterranean aquaculture many efforts have been made in terms of
reducing marine-derived ingredients in aquafeed formulation. On the other hand, little …

The present research aimed to investigate the existence of clock gene expression rhythms in
tilapia, their endogenous origin, and how light and feeding cycles synchronize these …
