Allowing aquatic organisms to grow in rice fields - a practice called co-culture - increases rice yields while maintaining soil fertility and reducing weeds. © 2022, Liu et al.
Using aquatic animals as partners to increase yield and maintain soil nitrogen in the paddy ecosystems.
Published in eLife
Monoculture, where only one type of crop is grown to the exclusion of any other organism, is a pillar of modern agriculture. Yet this narrow focus disregards how complex inter-species interactions can increase crop yield and biodiversity while decreasing the need for fertilizers or pesticides. For example, many farmers across Asia introduce carps, ...
Review: Use of Electrophysiological Techniques to Study Visual Functions of Aquatic Organisms
Published in Frontiers in Physiology
The light environments of natural water sources have specific characteristics. For the majority of aquatic organisms, vision is crucial for predation, hiding from predators, communicating information, and reproduction. Electroretinography (ERG) is a diagnostic method used for assessing visual function. An electroretinogram records the comprehensive...
A Review on the Use of Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) in Aquaculture Feeds
...Published in Annals of Animal Science
Distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) to replace fishmeal (FM) or other plant protein sources and its effects on an aquatic animal’s growth performance and health system is rarely discussed. In recent times FM use in aquafeed has been a problem for the aquaculture industry because of the depletion of fish resources in the ocean and the high ...
Pesticides as water pollutants and level of risks to environment and people: an example from Central Rift Valley of Ethi...
Sustainable agriculture focuses using agricultural resources with minimum possible negative environmental externality to produce more food. The present study reports the environmental and health risks associated with the use, management and handling of agrochemical in the Central Rift Valley, Ethiopia. Six Woredas (or districts) covering both upstr...

Macroalgal Defense against Competitors and Herbivores
Macroalgae are the source of many harmful allelopathic compounds, which are synthesized as a defense strategy against competitors and herbivores. Therefore, it can be predicted that certain species reduce aquaculture performance. Herein, the allelopathic ability of 123 different taxa of green, red, and brown algae have been summarized based on lite...
