Abalone growth and associated aspects: now from a metabolic perspective
(Wiley, 2018)Worldwide, there are approximately 100 Haliotis species, more commonly known as abalone or ‘Paua’ in New Zealand, ‘Venus's‐ears’ in Greece, ‘Awabi’ in Japan, ‘Perlemoen’ in South Africa and ‘Ormers’ in Europe. Regardless ... -
Characterising the metabolic differences related to growth variation in farmed Haliotis midae
(Elsevier, 2018)The South African abalone farming industry is entirely based on Haliotis midae, which has been commercially cultured with great success the last 20 years. Even though abalone are cultivated under identical farming conditions, ... -
Effect of proline‐enriched abalone feed on selected metabolite levels of slow‐growing adult Haliotis midae
(Wiley, 2019)Abalone is currently considered South Africa's most successfully produced aquacul‐ ture export product, with a 76% share of the total value generated by the aquaculture sector. A major risk factor for this sector is slow ... -
Uncovering the metabolic response of abalone (Haliotis midae) to environmental hypoxia through metabolomics
(Springer, 2018)Introduction Oxygen is essential for metabolic processes and in the absence thereof alternative metabolic pathways are required for energy production, as seen in marine invertebrates like abalone. Even though hypoxia has ...
