Targeted dietary micronutrient fortification modulates n-3 LC-PUFA pathway activity in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Replacing fish oil (FO) in aquafeeds with sustainable alternatives such as vegetable oils (VO) compromises the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 LC-PUFA) in the edible portions of farmed fish. Endogenous biosynthesis of n-3 LC-PUFA from C18 precursors is catalysed by several...
