Dietary inclusion effect of yacon, ginger, and blueberry on growth, body composition, and disease resistance of juvenile black rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli) against Vibrio anguillarum

Table 3 Feed consumption (g/fish), feed efficiency ratio (FER), protein efficiency ratio (PER), and protein retention (PR) of black rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli) fed the experimental diets containing the various sources of additives for 8 weeks

Values (means of triplicate ± SE) in the same column sharing the same superscript letter are not significantly different (P > 0.05)
¹Feed efficiency ratio (FER) = Weight gain of fish/feed consumed
²Protein efficiency ratio (PER) = Weight gain of fish/protein consumed
³Protein retention (PR) = Protein gain × 100/protein consumed
