The need to maximize aquaculture production while addressing environmental and food security challenges posed by climate change has driven research towards the development of functional aquafeeds that enhance performance and immunity in farmed species. However, exposure to dietary and environmental stressors affects marine organisms, altering key metabolic pathways best understood through high-throughput “omics” tools. This st...

The increasing demand for healthy aquatic products has contributed to the rapid growth of aquaculture. Despite the many progresses, over the years, in aquaculture production, animal welfare and reduction of the stress induced by captivity remain a challenge in this sector, and overcoming it is fundamental to improve animal growth performance and resilience to environmental threats (e.g., disease outbreaks and/or climate change...
