Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aquaculture has undergone extensive development in recent decades due to the great efforts of researchers and producers. Nowadays, the consumers’ pressure demanding more quantity and higher quality products, emphasizes the need for novel approaches in aquaculture research that can guarantee increased production while maintaining more efficient and sustainable practices. In this step, the role of emerging scientific talents bringing new technologies will be essential to meet this challenge.
This Special Issue seeks to make a compendium of the novel approaches and emerging frontiers that can contribute to the progress of research and production practices in aquaculture. Researchers are encouraged to submit their papers on new analytical tools, innovative solutions, and novel approaches for diet formulation, diagnosis, and sustainable production, among other topics. Review articles focusing on new insights and recent contributions to aquaculture research are also welcome.
