Abstract

Three oilseed meals (mustard linseed and sesame) of Bangladeshi origin were evaluated as fish meal substitute at two different levels (25 and 40 percent) of dietary protein in various combinations. The growth response of fish fed with these diets were compared to fish fed with a fish meal based control diet. The results of the study showed that substitution of fish meal by various plant protein sources in different combinations resulted in improved growth rate food conversion and protein utilization compared to that using single plant protein in the same inclusion level. This better growth performances could be attributed to the lower levels of anti-nutritional factors such as allyl isothiocyanate phytic acid hydrocyanic acid and tannins in the diets. This study also demonstrated that use of different plant protein sources in various combinations can prevent a high inclusion level of any single anti-nutritional factor in the diet and also be a means of compensating for essential amino acid deficiency in any single protein source.
