MedAID. WP2. Improving zootechnical performance. Raw data on Gilthead Sea Bream (Sparus aurata) feeding trials

Abstract

The dataset contains the results of MedAID project in vivo feeding trials performed on Gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) at University of Bologna facilities. Each feeding trial was focused on studying the interaction between a specific environmental condition (rearing density in one, seasonal temperature changes in another, daily feeding frequencies in another one) in presence of different dietary conditions. The results of the trials were presented in the following papers: 1) “Parma, L., Pelusio, N. F., Gisbert, E., Esteban, M. A., D'Amico, F., Soverini, M., Candela, M., Dondi, F., Gatta, P. P. and Bonaldo, A. (2020).
