Aquariculture Biotechnology

"Ornamental Aquaculture, a fast developing ‘Aquatic Rainbow Sector’ in India demands true innovations and implementation of advanced technologies to promote itself to the next level to compete in the international market. This book, an edited version deals with a wide range of topics in applied biotechnological techniques viz. fermentation technology, bioremediation based culture system management, genetically modified fish production techniques, colour enhancement, live feed production systems, use of hormones in induced breeding, cell culture technique, toll – like - receptors, cryopreservation techniques, etc. Adopting these advanced biotechnological techniques in the three vital areas of aquariculture viz. water quality, nutrition and health management it shall go a long way to develop protocols and practices to improve ornamental fish production to newer heights. This book, a compiled edition, contributed by eminent scientists who are working in various fields of aquariculture or ornamental aquaculture biotechnology, shall be immensely beneficial to scholars, students, scientists, teachers, entrepreneurs, aquariculture farmers, etc. as it deals with a wide range of topics of practical utility in Ornamental Aquaculture Technology and Management."
