Abstract:
Studies
will be undertaken with a freshwater and a marine teleost (Rainbow
trout and Gilthead seabream) in order to define the ideal protein
profile for maximising muscle growth. By assessing the adequacy
of amino acid balance, non-protein energy supply and reduction
of anti-nutritional factors (ANF), fishmeal-free (FMF) practical
diets will be developed using plant protein sources. The consequences
on digestion, absorption and nutrient utilisation leading to lower
environmental load will be analysed. The metabolic and endocrine
control of muscle growth, protein and fat synthesis will be studied
both in vivo and in vitro. Long-term effects on
voluntary feed intake, muscle quality, health and reproduction
will be assessed. A socio-economic analysis of the switch from
the dependence of aquafeeds on marine resources to plant-protein-based
diets will be made.
