This book deals with the fundamentals of key physiological mechanisms involved in the
development and growth of fish larvae. Chapters included show how the environmental and
nutritional conditions are affecting the developmental process from its molecular basis and how
these same conditions also influence the final characteristics of late larvae and fry. This
volume provides recent findings on the importance of environmental rhythms some specific
nutrients and the adequate microbial environment in the developmental processes including
recent results of current research projects.
