“…This may be due to its role in enhancing the defense system with increasing the different immune parameters exhibiting its antibacterial activity (Abdel-Razek et al 2019 ). Consistent with the current study, beneficial effects of other medicinal herbs on disease resistance were also shown in previous studies (Gobi et al 2016 ; Tan et al 2017 ; Abdel-Razek et al 2019 ; Mehrabi et al 2020 ; Zemheri-Navruz et al 2019 ; Adel et al 2021 ).…”

“…Maybe this is the reason for further explaining the improved feed utilization and decreased mortality. Adel et al ( 2021 ) illustrated that polyphenols and natural antioxidants in medicinal herbs are involved in the stimulation of digestive enzymes in fish. Besides, the polyphenols in FPE have an antibacterial effect, which can limit and control the colonization and growth of pathogenic bacteria in fish intestines and allow the beneficial bacteria to digest the nutrients by the secreted digestive enzymes (Hai 2015 ; Wang et al 2020 ; Mehrabi et al 2020 ).…”

This study investigated the effects of dietary Flos populi extract (FPE) on the growth, antioxidation capability, innate immune response, and disease resistance in gibel carp. A total of 480 fish were fed with five different diets containing 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 g kg−1 FPE (designated as control, D0.5, D1.0, D1.5, or D2.0 groups) for 45 days. The fish were challenged with A. hydrophila after the feeding trial. Compared with the control, the feed efficiency (FE), weight gain (WG), final body weight (FBW), and specific growth rate (SGR) were significantly improved in groups D1.0 and D1.5. Dietary FPE significantly increased serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and catalase (CAT) activities, as well as glutathione (GSH) content. The contents of protein carbonyl (PCC) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum decreased significantly. Additionally, FPE supplementation in diets resulted in significant improvement in serum lysozyme (LZM) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activities, as well as immunoglobulin M (IgM) and complement 3 (C3) concentrations. The hepatic antioxidant enzymes (CAT and SOD) activities increased, whereas content of MDA decreased in fish treated with dietary FPE than those of control both pre- and post-challenged. After 12 h-challenge, an obvious downregulation of hepatic Kelch-like-ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), splenic tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-8, IL-1β, and toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) mRNA levels was observed in fish treated with dietary FPE, whereas hepatic Nrf2 transcription level was upregulated compared to the control. Furthermore, compared to group D0.5, higher relative percent survival (RPS) was observed in gibel carp fed dietary 1.0–2.0 g/kg FPE. Our results reveal that FPE supplemented diet has a stimulatory effect on antioxidant capacity and nonspecific immune response, along with improved growth performance and enhanced resistance against A. hydrophila infection in juvenile gibel carp.

“…In addition, data collection was further limited to TNFα and IL-1β expression. Accordingly, data from selected articles (n = 9) [33][34][35][36][37][38]40,42,43] were used for meta-analysis (Figure 5). Because data were accumulated from a series of independently performed trials, all selected studies were not functionally equivalent.…”

Can Agri-Food Waste Be a Sustainable Alternative in Aquaculture? A Bibliometric and Meta-Analytic Study on Growth Performance, Innate Immune System, and Antioxidant Defenses

The agri-food industry generates a large amount of waste every year, which is both an environmental and economic problem, especially for the countries in charge of its disposal. Over the years, there has been a growing interest especially in plant waste, since they are rich in compounds with high nutritional and nutraceutical value. As a result, several scientific disciplines are investigating their alternative use in the formulation of dietary supplements for human or animal use, or as biostimulants for agricultural purposes. In this review, using a meta-analytical approach, we summarize the main and most recent findings related to the use of plant waste as potential ingredients in dietary supplementation for fish grown under controlled experimental conditions. In particular, in this review, it has been highlighted that plant waste may have not only positive effects on growth performance, but also beneficial effects on modulation of the innate immune system and antioxidant defenses. Finally, the bibliometric study and a mapping provide an overview of the recent publications, showing the research strength across the country, the number of potential collaborations among institutions, and the main research focus, demonstrating how this topic is growing in interest, especially in Europe.

“…These may be attributed to the quick absorption of essential oils in the gastrointestinal tract of fish (Gültepe, 2018). There was also an improvement in the growth performance and feed utilization of Siberian sturgeon ( Acipenser baerii ) fed lemon verbena (LV) ( Aloysia citrodora ) extract at the rate of 10–20 mg kg −1 (Adel et al, 2021). Dietary LV is high in phytochemicals and aromatic tastes, which improve diet palatability and feed ingestion and utilization (Bahramsoltani et al, 2018).…”

“…Also, serum glucose, cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase and aspartate aminotransferase values were decreased using bergamot ( C. bergamia ) peel oil (BPO) up to 1% in European seabass ( D. labrax ) diets due to the presence of limonene, which is a key component of BPO that has a protective effect on the liver health status of sea bass (Acar et al, 2019). While, adding lemon verbena ( A. citrodora ) extract was increased the RBC, WBC, Hb, hematocrit and total protein contents of Siberian sturgeon ( A. baerii ; Adel et al, 2021). This increase might be attributed to the availability of vitamin C, amino acids and natural immunostimulants in the lemon verbena extract, which benefit the general health of the Siberian sturgeon (Bahramsoltani et al, 2018).…”

Sweet orange (Citrus sinensis), tangerine or mandarin (Citrus reticulata), grapefruit (Citrus vitis), lime (Citrus aurantiifolia) and lemon (Citrus limon) are among the most widely cultivated and consumed citrus fruits in the world. Citrus fruits have a distinct flavour, taste and fragrance and are high in vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, folic acid, carotenoids, potassium, pectin and fibre. Citrus fruits
