Preliminary investigation on feeding habits and gonad maturation in North Adriatic wild turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.)

The European aquaculture turbot production in 1999 was 4093 t of which approximately 2850 t from Spain. France (858 t), Portugal (378 t) and Ireland (8 t) are the other main turbot producing countries in Europe (FAO, 2001). Several studies have been carried out detailing the high potential of turbot...
