Abstract: Two experiments were conducted to elucidate the possible effects of dietary L-tryptophan (TRP) in Labeo rohita based on growth performance and physio-biochemical responses. In the experiment I, a 60-day feeding trial was carried out to elucidate the effects of dietary TRP enrichment on growth performance and physio-biochemical responses. In the experiment II, the TRP pre-fed L. rohita, from experiment I, was exposed to temperature and salinity stress to evaluate stress-mitigating efficacy of TRP. In L. rohita,… Show more

“…Few studies investigated the effects of exogenous tryptophan on serum thyroid hormones' level. Recent finding showed that exogenous tryptophan prevent stress-induced decrease in serum thyroid hormones' level (Akhtar et al, 2013;Ciji et al, 2013a). However, there is no study on the effect of tryptophan on basal levels of serum thyroid hormones in fish.…”

“…Limited data are available about the effect of dietary tryptophan on thyroid hormones' level in fish. Two recent studies demonstrated that dietary tryptophan counteracts stress-induced (nitrite, thermal and osmotic challenges) thyroid hormones decrease in L. rohita (Akhtar et al, 2013;Ciji et al, 2013a); however, the authors did not monitor sole effects of dietary tryptophan on thyroid hormones' levels without those stressors. Further studies on the effect of dietary tryptophan on thyroid hormones' level are necessary.…”

“…However, Akhtar et al . (2013a) and Ciji et al . () showed that L. rohita fed on diets containing tryptophan levels of 3.05–5.17% of dietary protein have significantly improved weight gain compared to control fish (fed with diet containing 0.99% tryptophan).…”

“…Akhtar et al . (2013a) and Ciji et al . () reported that growth performance of L. rohita exposed to stressful conditions and water pollution improves when fed diets containing 3.05–5.17% tryptophan (% of dietary protein) compared to that containing 0.99% tryptophan (discussed below).…”
