Effects of Dietary α-Linolenic Acid (18:3n-3)/Linoleic Acid (18:2n-6) Ratio on Fatty Acid Metabolism in Murray Cod (Maccullochella peelii peelii)

Global shortages in fish oil are forcing the aquaculture feed industry to use alternative oil sources, the use of which negatively affects the final fatty acid makeup of cultured fish. Thus, the modulation of fatty acid metabolism in cultured fish is the core of an intensive global research effort. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of various dietary α-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n-3)/linoleic acid (LA, 18:2n-6) ratios in cultured...
