“…This fish species leads the fish farming in Brazil and presents high acceptance among consumers probably due to the mild flavor and easily removable fishbones (Associação Brasileira da Piscicultura, 2019; Monteiro et al, 2013). Maciel et al (2016) also reported a high frequency of citation of salmon and tilapia among Brazilian consumers, indicating that the consumption of native species is low (Barone, Lorenz, Sonoda, & Cyrino, 2017). In addition, although consumers have cited natural fish habitats, such as sea and river , they often do not know the specific habitat of the fish they consume (Vanhonacker et al, 2011).…”

The aim of the present study was to investigate through free word association the Brazilian consumers' perception of fish as a meal and to explore whether different fish consumption frequencies play a role. The participants were split into high, occasional, and low consumption groups according to their self‐reported fish consumption frequency. Brazilian consumers' general associations with fish were strongly related to health benefits, which was considered a motivating factor for the high consumption group. However, for the low consumption group, the unfamiliarity, the low convenience and the high price represent barriers to fish consumption. Although they did not present negative feelings regarding fish, it was not possible to determine the factors that influence fish consumption for the group of occasional consumers. The elaboration of semi ready‐to‐eat products from fish residues and further studies focusing on occasional consumers can be strategies to increase the Brazilian per capita consumption of fish. Practical Applications Fish is an important source of high quality nutrients and its intake contributes to maintaining a healthy diet. However, the per capita consumption of this matrix is still low in Brazil. The present study observed that the perception of Brazilian consumers regarding fish as a meal was significantly affected by their fish consumption frequency. Therefore, the different consumer profiles must be taken into account for the development of more appropriate marketing and communication strategies aimed at increasing the consumption of this important product in the country.

“…Brazilian territory support great diversity of fish species (Reis et al, 2003;Lewinsohn & Prado, 2005;Toussaint et al, 2016). In addition, in recent years, aquaculture has intensified in Brazil, which may have contributed to the number of studies focusing on the body condition of fishes (Barone et al, 2017;Pelicice et al, 2017).…”

Relative condition factor: Le Cren's legacy for fisheries science

Aim In this paper we present a scientometric analysis aimed at to assess and quantify the contribution of Le Cren’s condition factor and the main ideas advanced by ‘Le Cren, 1951’ to studies on the health of individuals or populations in aquatic environments. Specifically, we addressed the following questions: (i) what are the temporal and spatial citation trends of ‘Le Cren, 1951’?; (ii) Which journals cited ‘Le Cren, 1951’ most frequently?; (iii) In which types of aquatic environments and organisms have Le Cren’s condition factor been most commonly applied?; (iv) Which of the main applications addressed in ‘Le Cren, 1951’ have been most frequently used by fisheries scientists?; (v) Which of the methods (i.e., Quételet’s index or body mass index, Fulton’s condition factor, Le Cren’s condition factor, relative weight, residual index and scaled mass index) used to estimate condition factor identified in the papers that cited ‘Le Cren, 1951’ have been most frequently used? In addition, the main criticisms of the use of the relative condition factor are discussed. Methods We carried out a scientometric analysis on the papers published from 1951 to December 2015 that cited Le Cren’s article. The papers were obtained from the Thomson Reuters database (ISI Web of Knowledge, apps.isiknowledge.com) in May 2016. Results In total, 1128 papers were assessed. The number of citations increased significantly over time. Most citations occurred in two journals (Journal of Fish Biology and Journal of Applied Ichthyology). Most of papers were carried out in marine environments. In addition, we show that Le Cren's paper has been cited mainly in articles that estimate the condition factor or the weight-length relationship of populations. Finally, we emphasize that the relative condition factor proposed by Le Cren in 1951 is still the main method used to estimate the body condition of an individual or population. Conclusions Le Cren's significant contribution to animal well-being is undeniable, and we emphasize that among the methods identified in the papers that cited ‘Le Cren, 1951’ that estimated body condition, the relative condition factor proposed by Le Cren in 1951 is still the most commonly used method.

“…However, these artificial feed formulations mainly target protein supplementation and fail to fulfil all nutritional requirements, including those from micro‐nutrients, thereby replacing other essential nutrients from fish food. The introduction of non‐native fish species for higher economic gains is common among developed and developing countries (Barone et al, 2017; Barroso et al, 2019).…”

Technological advances in genetic improvement, management, health and nutrition have allowed aquaculture activities to attain high levels regarding animal protein, production, and commercialization.The annual growth of this sector and the nutritional quality of meat are factors that make fish increasingly desirable for consumers. Brazil has emerged as a promising global supplier of aquaculture products due to the growing number of high-tech farms and productivity, particularly in the provision of native fish species (Valentin et al., 2021).Several species of fish play an important role in the economies of many countries worldwide. Many of these species are native and regionally adapted but are raised on fish farms and subjected to adaptive conditioning techniques because of their commercial value.In recent years, global production has experienced substantial advances in productivity methods for human consumption of farmed fish (FAO, 2020). Commercialization success is fundamentally based on dietary strategies for growth and weight gain from several formulated and commercially available fish feeds (Li & Robinson, 2015).However, these artificial feed formulations mainly target protein
