Abstract
The present review reports the results of two studies carried out at the Institute for the Coastal Marine Environment of Messina (Italy) on the suitability of plant-derived raw materials as dietary components for an innovative fish species for aquaculture, black spot sea bream Pagellus bogaraveo. The research focused on the effects of the use of plant (protein/lipid) dietary sources on growth performance, body composition and gastro-intestinal enzyme patterns in nutrient digestion of wild juveniles of P. bogaraveo. In particular, the effect of a total replacement of Fish oil by Echium and linseed oils and a partial substitution of fish meal with a graded level of Rice Protein Concentrate, will be discussed.
