Resumo(s)
Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing world industries due to the increased demand of fishery products for human consumption and capture restrictions as a result of aquatic ecosystems exploitation. Aquaculture is therefore an extremely competitive business with major challenges to keep a high quality farmed fish through a sustainable production system. These challenges imposed quite important changes in this more traditional market, namely at the level of integrating scientific knowledge and research. Proteomics presents itself as a powerful tool not only for a better understanding of the marine organisms biology but also to provide solutions to deal with changes and the increasing demand in the system’s production line to ensure the required supply. In this book chapter we will give an overview of aquaculture nowadays, its challenges and describe relevant proteomics studies in several areas of this industry. A brief description of the proteomics technical approaches applied to aquaculture will also be addressed.
