Taurine and methionine supplementation as a nutritional strategy for growth promotion of meagre (Argyrosomus regius) fed high plant protein diets

The effect of methionine and taurine supplementation of plant protein based diet for meagre (Argyrosomus regius) juveniles was assessed on growth performance and metabolic hepatic enzymes activity. For that purpose, four isolipidic (180.0 g kg−1 crude lipids) and isoproteic (420.0 g kg−1) practical diets were formulated containing 820.0 g kg−1 of protein from plant origin and 180.0 g kg−1 from fishmeal. A 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of...
