This study evaluates the influence of dietary supplementation with royal jelly on growth dynamics in sterlet (Acipenser ruthenus), a species of significant interest in aquaculture. Throughout a controlled experimental period, juvenile sturgeons were fed diets containing varying concentrations of royal jelly and were monitored for key growth performance parameters, including weight gain, specific growth rate, average daily gain, and feed conversion ratio. The results revealed a significant impact of royal jelly sup...

Aquaculture has become an essential component of global food production, offering a sustainable source of animal protein. However, the sector continues to face significant challenges related to environmental sustainability and suboptimal reproductive efficiency. In recent years, the incorporation of plant-derived bioactive compounds, commonly referred to as phyto-additives, has emerged as a promising, natural alternative to synthetic additives and chemotherapeutics. These substances can improve growth performance,...
