This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the latest biotechnological innovations transforming the aquaculture industry. Divided into five main sections, Biotechnological Advances in Aquaculture: Enhancing
Genetics, Nutrition, Health, Disease Prevention, and Food Security begins with an introduction to sustainability and innovative management strategies for aquaculture. It looks at genetic and molecular advances, such as selective breeding, gene editing, and cryopreservation, which improve the characteristics of aquatic animals. The nutrition and feed development section explores sustainable feed alternatives, including probiotics and algae-derived innovations to improve fish health and reduce reliance on traditional resources. Next, the section on health and disease prevention highlights breakthroughs in the development of vaccines, probiotics, and plant-derived immunostimulants to combat disease in aquaculture. Finally, case studies and prospects emphasize the role of biotechnology in conserving endangered species and ensuring food security.

With contributions from leading experts, this book offers actionable insights and practical solutions to the challenges facing aquaculture. It will be an indispensable resource for students and researchers who want to understand the integration of biotechnology to promote sustainable aquaculture practices, innovation, and resilience in global seafood production.
