Southern Bluefin Tuna Captive Breeding in Australia

Comparison of digestive, immune and antioxidant enzyme activities of mackerel tuna (Euthynnus affinis) in the wild and under captivity

“…However, the development of tuna aquaculture production is restricted by the technique of artificial breeding of tuna fish, while the vast majority of tuna production still comes from farming juvenile tuna fish captured from the wild (Metian et al 2014). The land-based domestication of juvenile tuna is an important undertaking for development of tuna culture (Chen et al 2016). Current research on tuna mainly focuses on the biology, ecology, fishery management, species identification, genetics and nutritional value (Castrillon et al 1996;Block et al 2001;Graham et al 2007;Rooker et al 2007;Die 2016;Bojolly et al 2017).…”
