Use of camelina oil to replace fish oil in diets for farmed salmonids and Atlantic cod – S. M. Hixson, C.C. Parrish, and D.M. Anderson – Aquaculture 2014

Summary: In this study growth and lipid composition of Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout and Atlantic cod were compared after feeding a diet containing camelina oil (CO) as a full replacement of fish oil (FO). In terms of both growth performance and utilization of CO towards fatty acid biosynthesis, it appears that dietary CO is more appropriate for salmonids species than gadids.
