Abstract:This study aimed to elucidate the effects of different photoperiods (0 L:24 D, 6 L:18 D, 12 L:12 D, 18 L:6 D, 24 L:0 D, “Light (L) and Dark (D)”) on the growth performance and physiological responses of the juvenile scalloped spiny lobster (Panulirus homarus). Over a period of 56 days, parameters such as growth rate, digestive enzyme, immune enzyme, and antioxidant enzyme were meticulously evaluated in 90 lobsters subjected to these varying light conditions. The present study found no significant differences i… Show more
