“…Similarly, supplementing the diet with inulin at 5.0 g/kg improved weight gain and SGR of both sexes of Nile tilapia (Ibrahem et al., ). The positive effects of dietary inulin on growth performance were consistent with those reported in juvenile Nile tilapia (Tiengtam et al., ). Dietary supplementation of inulin and FOS was also reported to exert positive effects on growth performance in several species.…”

“…Similar effects of supplementation with either inulin or FOS on the survival rate have previously been demonstrated in Nile tilapia (Ibrahem et al., ) and blunt snot bream (Wu et al., ). Nevertheless, there were no significant increases in survival rate of turbot, beluga, rainbow trout or juvenile Nile tilapia following dietary supplementation with either inulin or FOS (Mahious et al., ; Ortiz et al., ; Reza et al., ; Tiengtam et al., ). Dietary supplementation of inulin or FOS led to increase survival rate of common carp fry (0.55 g body weight), whereas the significant improvement of survival rates was not observed in common carp during later growth phase (13.85 g body weight) (Eshaghzadeh et al., ; Hoseinifar et al., , ).…”

“…JA contained the proximate chemical and oligofructose compounds described by Tiengtam et al. (). The 5.0 JA and 10.0 JA diets were prepared to incorporate JA at 5.0 g/kg and 10.0 g/kg, respectively, which were equal to inulin levels of 2.5 g/kg and 5.0 g/kg respectively.…”

This study investigated the effects of dietary inulin or Jerusalem artichoke (JA) on the growth performance, haematological, blood chemical and immune parameters of Nile tilapia fingerlings. Five treatment diets were designed to incorporate inulin at 0 (basal diet), 2.5 and 5.0 g/kg and JA at 5.0 and 10.0 g/kg. Two basal diets including fish meal and formulated experimental feed were used for fry and fingerling growing periods, respectively. During the fry growing period, larvae were fed treatment diets for 4 weeks. There were no significant differences in growth performance or survival rate. Fingerlings were then nursed with the formulated experimental diets from weeks 5 to 12. Fingerlings fed on inulin at 5.0 g/kg or JA at either level had better growth performance and survival rate than that fed on the basal diets. There were no significant differences in body composition. Dietary prebiotic inulin and JA increased red blood cell number (p < .05). Among the five blood chemistry parameters examined, both inulin at 5.0 g kg and JA (5.0 and 10.0 g/kg) increased blood protein (p < .05). Dietary inulin at 5.0 g/kg and JA at 5.0 and 10.0 g/kg increased total immunoglobulin and lysozyme activity (p < .05). Both inulin and JA inclusion diets increased alternative complement activity (p < .05). Taken together, dietary inulin at 5 g/kg and JA at 5.0 and 10.0 g/kg had beneficial effects on the growth performance, survival rate and immune of Nile tilapia fingerlings.

“…Besides, the TC content in the liver was also significantly higher than that in control group, regardless of the A-OKGM level. Similar results were found in studies on Oreochromis niloticus [55] and huso huso [56] after the administration of inulin. Cholesterol biosynthesis is controlled by a feedback mechanism with HMGCR as the key enzyme.…”

Tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) are the most widespread aquaculture species grown and are expected to continue increasing in production to meet the growing demand for fish by an ever‐increasing human population. Fish health management is one of the major concerns in the production of aquaculture species. A number of studies have been conducted to identify new procedures for reducing disease of commonly farmed species, such as tilapia. To prevent disease, the use of antibiotics is common practice in most aquaculture facilities. However, consumer demand and increasing incidence of antibiotic resistance have caused the reduction in the use of antibiotics being administered regularly. A recent strategy is the incorporation of antibiotic alternatives, such as probiotics, prebiotics, and alternative carbohydrate ingredients to promote the growth and health of the fish through the modulation of gastrointestinal microbiota. Intestinal autochthonous microbiota fulfils a number of important roles in host digestion, immunity and intestinal integrity. In the past, the majority of studies on the intestinal microbiota of tilapia used culture‐based methods that are not representative of the entire community. With the advancement of molecular techniques, current studies are utilizing culture‐independent methods to monitor the microbial modulation in the tilapia gastrointestinal tract. This review discusses the effects of antibiotics, probiotics, prebiotics and alternative feed ingredients on the intestinal microbiota of tilapia using culture‐independent techniques. Although advances have been made in the understanding of tilapia intestinal microbiota, more research is needed into the microbial ecology, alternative feedstuff effects and economic impacts of modulating intestinal microbiota of tilapia.
