“…We found that the fish fed the 5.0 inulin diet and the 5.0 JA and 10.0 JA diets had a higher goblet cell number than the other groups. In another study, however, dietary supplementation with inulin at 10.0 g kg −1 had a negative effect on the number of goblet cells in gilthead sea bream (Cerezuela et al, 2013). These findings suggest that the beneficial effect of dietary inulin on intestinal morphology might differ among species, especially those with different feeding habits.…”

“…For example, Olsen et al (2001) reported that a high level of dietary inulin (150 g kg −1 dietary inclusion) had negative effects on the ultrastructure of the gastrointestinal tract of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus). In addition, decreased microvillus height was observed in gilthead sea bream fed a diet that included 10.0 g kg −1 inulin (Cerezuela et al, 2013). Intestinal goblet cells synthesize mucin, which invades enteric pathogens.…”

“…Intestinal bacteria affect growth and the immune function, especially the intestinal immune function (Pérez-Sánchez et al 2011;Cerezuela et al 2013). Interactions between the endogenous gut microbiota and the fish host are integral in mediating the development, maintenance, and effective functionality of the intestinal mucosa and gut-associated lymphoid tissues.…”

Prenant's schizothoracin (Schizothorax prenanti) is an important existemic commercial fish in Yangtze River. Oxidized konjac glucomannan (OKGM) is a kind of polysaccharide oxidative degraded from konjac glucomannan. The diet of S. prenanti was supplemented with 500, 1000, 2000, 4000, and 8000 mg/kg OKGM. After a 60-day feeding trial, Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Lactobacillus, and Bifidobacterium in the intestines of S. prenanti were quantified, and intestinal flora was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). Intestinal plica mucosa height, mucosa epithelial height, submucosa thickness, inner circular muscularis thickness, and outer longitudinal muscularis thickness were measured. In the foregut and midgut, Lactobacillus in the 2000, 4000, and 8000 mg/kg dose groups were significantly (P \ 0.05) higher than that of the control group. In the hindgut, E. coli and Salmonella of the 4000 and 8000 mg/kg dose groups were significantly (P \ 0.05) lower than those of the control group, but Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium in these groups were significantly (P \ 0.05) more than those of the control group. The bands from PCR-DGGE of the control and 500 mg/kg dose groups were found to be highly similar, as well as the 4000 and 8000 mg/kg dose groups. The intestinal length index of the 8000 mg/kg dose group was significantly (P \ 0.05) lower than that of the control group. The plica mucosa height in the gut of the 8000 mg/kg dose group was significantly (P \ 0.05) higher than that of the control group. The mucosa epithelial height and inner circular muscularis thickness in the midgut and hindgut of the 8000 mg/kg dose group were significantly (P \ 0.05) higher than those of the control group. Hence, OKGM is beneficial to gut health. OKGM doses of 4000 and 8000 mg/kg in the diet significantly affected the intestinal morphology and intestinal microflora of S. prenanti, and the optimal dose was 8000 mg/kg.

“…Probiotics have been used in formulated diets for its role in digestion and better assimilation. Incorporation of attractants might increase feed palatability leading to faster ingestion of feed, thereby minimizing feed wastages and deterioration of water quality (Cerezuela et al, 2013;Jones, 1980). Natural attractants were traditionally used in angling and fishing in natural waters around the globe.…”

A 63-days indoor feeding trial was conducted to assess the growth performance of Labeo rohita fingerling (69.82±0.53 g) fed with three experimental diets containing black thorn, Kaempferia galanga as natural attractant, yeast as probiotic and their combination. Comparable feed consumption in groups fed with attractant (86.54 g) and combination of attractant and probiotic (85.17 g) compared to group fed probiotic only (74.10 g) were observed. Combined use of attractant and probiotic in the diet resulted in highest percent live weight gain (105.30%) compared to the individual inclusion of attractant (60.88%) and probiotic (72.63%). Comparison of feed conversion ratio (FCR) indicated better conversion when fed with the diet containing both the attractant and probiotic (3.69) compared to the other diets containing either probiotic (4.96) or attractant (5.20). Further, highest accretion of carcass protein was recorded in groups fed diet with combination of additives (254.79%), followed by attractant (193.03%) and probiotic (159.29%) alone. RNA/DNA ratio in both liver and muscle exhibited a significant (P<0.05), linear increase in groups fed diet with only probiotics followed by attractant alone, and the combination of both probiotics and attractant accordingly. Present study revealed better efficacy of feed supplemented with Kaempferia galanga in feed consumption, growth promotion and utilization in L. rohita fingerlings, as compared to that with probiotic.However, the combination of probiotics and attractant could confer the better results as compared to their individual dietary inclusion.
