The State ofSeriola spp.Other Than Yellowtail (S. quinqueradiata) Farming in the World

Abstract

The aim of this review is to provide an update of Seriola spp. farming in the world, excluding yellowtail (S. quinqueradiata), and to identify strengths and weaknesses of these species as candidates for aquaculture diversification in different areas of the world. Farmed Seriola species other than yellowtail are yellowtail kingfish (S. lalandi) in Japan and Australia, longfin yellowtail (S. rivoliana) in the United States, greater amberjack (S. dumerili) in Japan, the Mediterranean and more recently Vietnam, and Pacific yellowtail (S. mazatlana) in North and Central America. Candidate countries for Seriola spp. farming development are China (although there are no published production statistics to date), New Zealand and the Canary Islands. The main bottlenecks for further expansion of Seriola spp. farming appear to be disease impact, lack of genetic improvement programs and incomplete knowledge of nutrient requirements.Extensive experience from Japan, where the success of Seriola spp. farming has been based on an integrated system between producer associations, research institutes and central government, it is clear that the aforementioned technical bottlenecks need to be addressed within a framework of medium-term public policies supporting aquaculture development.Key words: Aquaculture diversification, Amberjack, Carangids, Seriola dumerili, Seriola lalandi, yellowtail Page 2 of 38 URL: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/brfs Email: sandra.shumway@uconn.edu 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 Reviews in Fisheries Science IntroductionDiversification is an urgent need for aquaculture (Teletchea and Fontaine, 2014) and new candidate species must be highly appreciated by consumers so to get high prices on the market. Seriola spp., belonging to the Carangidae family, are one such group of fish with exceptional consumer acceptance. The species within this family with the longest history of commercial farming is yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata Temminck & Schegel, 1844) which has been farmed in Japan since the 1960's (Masumoto, 2002). Seriola spp. farming in Japan initially relied on collection of wild juveniles, caught in Spring and grown until they reached market size (2-5 kg) (Masumoto, 2002). lalandi) has the second highest production volume within Seriola species, with an annual production estimated at 4558 tonnes in Japan in 2013 and 3000-4000 tonnes (expected to increase in the near future to ≥5000 t) in South Australia (Miller et al., 2011) (Fig. 1).Yellowtail kingfish is a temperate and subtropical epipelagic species naturally occurring in the Australasian region, Southern Japan and East China Sea. It has a good adaptability to cage culture conditions. Seriola lalandi is currently farmed in Japan (Nakada, 2008; Shiraishi et al., 2010), New Zealand (Kolkovski and Sakakura, 2004, Camara and Symonds, 2014 Symond...

Bacteriological water quality of recirculating aquatic systems for maintenance of yellowtail amberjack Seriola lalandi

“…The identification of the bacteria allowed the identification of some potential functions with which they have been associated. In this regard, V. harveyi was identified as a pathogen for S. lalandi (Sicuro & Luzzana, ) and is characterized by having some virulence mechanisms that facilitate invasion in the host (Yang & Defoirdt, ). In addition, other bacteria were found that are not considered in the literature as causal agents of diseases but produce compounds associated with pathogenesis, such as tetrodotoxins ( P. tetraodonis ) (Ivanova et al, ), or possess genes that encode for carbapenemases, enzymes that degrade antibiotics ( S. xiamenensis ) (Huang et al, ).…”

Ocean warming has a greater effect than acidification on the early life history development and swimming performance of a large circumglobal pelagic fish

“…The yellowtail kingfish S. lalandi has emerged as a potential model species for testing the effects of environmental change on large pelagic fishes because it is one of the few species that can be reliably reared in captivity (Sicuro & Luzzana, ; Symonds et al., ). The yellowtail kingfish is a large coastal pelagic fish with a circumglobal distribution in subtropical waters.…”

Replacement of fish oil with vegetable oil blends in feeds for greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili) juveniles: Effect on growth performance, feed efficiency, tissue fatty acid composition and flesh nutritional value

“…The Carangidae family is a group of fish with exceptional consumer acceptance, considered of great potential for aquaculture diversification (updated by Sicuro & Luzzana, ). Recently, several species within this family have been abundantly targeted for research, including the effects of replacing marine ingredients by terrestrial sources in yellowtail kingfish ( Seriola lalandi ) (Bowyer, Qin, Smullen, & Stone, ; Bowyer, Rout‐Pitt, Bain, Stone, & Schuller, ; Bowyer et al., ; Collins, Ball, Qin, Bowyer, & Stone, ), Japanese yellowtail ( Seriola quinqueradiata ) (Khaoian, Nguyen, Ogita, Fukada, & Masumoto, ; Nguyen, Khaoian, Fukada, Suzuki, & Masumoto, ; Sarker, Satoh, Kamata, Haga, & Yamamoto, ; Seno‐O et al., ) and pompano ( Trachinotus spp .)…”
