The use of live food as a vehicle of soybean meal for nutritional programming of largemouth bass Micropterus salmoides

Abstract Nutritional Programming (NP) has been studied as a means of improving dietary plant protein (PP) utilization in different fish species. This study investigated the use of enriched live feed as a vehicle for NP in larval fish. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of NP ind...
