Highlights

  • Aquaculture is the fastest growing animal production sector in the world since 1984

  • The results showed that Nile tilapia fingerlings received diets containing 25% treated torpedo grass showed the best results in growth parameters, feed efficiency and economic efficiency

  • The objective of the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of replacing yellow corn in fish feed by biodegraded torpedo grass, P. repens L. with white-rot fungus, Pleurotus ostreatus on growth performance, feed utilization, body composition, hematology and preliminary economical evaluation

Summary

Introduction

Aquaculture is the fastest growing animal production sector in the world since 1984. Today, aquaculture production accounts for over a 61.5% of total fish production. Effect of different carbon source on Pleurotus ostreatus growth and enzyme induction One hundred ml MSL in conical flasks (250 ml) containing 10 g/L from (dried- milled torpedo grass, P. repens L.) or glucose and 20 g/L from dextrose was inoculated by 3 ml from fungal suspension at 106 cfu/ml (one-week-old colonies of fungi grown at 25°C on PDA plates).
