• Future availability of raw materials for salmon feeds and supply chain implications: the case of Scottish farmed salmon (2017, background): “In the long term it is recognised that cultivation of autotrophic/ phototrophic algae using photosynthesis is the most efficient solution, but it is proving highly complex and difficult to scale up (Tocher, 2015).”
• Biosynthesis of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in the African catfish Clarias gariepinus: Molecular cloning and functional characterisation of fatty acyl desaturase (fads2) and elongase (elovl2) cDNAs7 (2016, background): “Freshwater fish, having evolved on diets 100 low in LC-PUFA, are believed to have all the genes and/or enzymatic functionalities required 101 for endogenous LC-PUFA production (NRC, 2011; Tocher, 2015).”
• A comparative study on the effect of fish meal substitution with three different insect meals on growth, body composition and metabolism of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) (2020, neutral): “Long chain PUFA are essential for the fish metabolism and cell membrane structure as, among other things, they are precursors of eicosanoids and membrane phospholipid and triglyceride components (Tocher, 2015).”
• Thoughts for the Future of Aquaculture Nutrition: Realigning Perspectives to Reflect Contemporary Issues Related to Judicious Use of Marine Resources in Aquafeeds (2018, background): “FO is a 125 triglyceride-rich oil with a unique fatty acid composition, typically comprising roughly equal amounts 126 of saturated fatty acids (SFAs), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), and LC-PUFAs, particularly 127 those in the n-3 series (Tocher 2015; Turchini et al., 2009).”
