Abstract excerpt
Phosphorus (P) is an important and essential mineral for fish. To investigate the effects of dietary P on gill immune and physical barrier function in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), fish were fed six graded levels of dietary available P (0.95–8.75 g/kg diet) for 60 days, and then sampled 3 days after a challenge test (exposure to water containing Flavobacterium columnare; 1.0 × 10⁸ colony-forming units (cfu...
