In Türkiye, the rapid expansion of aquaculture has been accompanied by a rise in such incidents, raising concerns regarding species integrity and industry sustainability. To elucidate the spatiotemporal patterns and causal factors of aquaculture incidents in Türkiye, this study systematically analyzed 44 documented events reported between 2010 and 2024. The dataset, compiled from publicly available media sources, comprised 26 mortality events and 18 fish escapes, each classified by species, geographical region, aquaculture system, and reported cause. All incidents involved rainbow trout, European seabass, or gilthead bream—the three most widely farmed finfish species in Türkiye. The findings revealed that freshwater incidents predominantly affected rainbow trout, whereas marine incidents primarily involved European seabass and gilthead bream, with additional cases concerning rainbow trout. Extreme weather events (e.g., storms and flash floods) accounted for 56.5% of escape incidents, while structural failures and maritime collisions each contributed 17.4%. Temporal trends indicated a twofold increase in incident frequency from 2010–2015 to 2020–2024, reflecting both sectoral growth and heightened climate variability. Offshore operations in the Aegean and Mediterranean regions were particularly vulnerable to storm-related breaches, while inland facilities in the Eastern Black Sea and Anatolian regions faced elevated flood risks. These findings emphasize the importance of investing in climate-resilient infrastructure, real-time monitoring, and species-specific containment strategies to mitigate escape risks and support the continued sustainable development of aquaculture in Türkiye.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":227,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Aquaculture","volume":"17 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144367359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While meeting physical, psychological, and behavioural needs remains a priority, the concept of resilience offers a deeper approach, moving beyond need fulfilment to actively enhance the capacity of fish to adapt, recover, and thrive. This scoping review assessed the evidence for resilience building in farmed fish through two forms of environmental enrichment: physical exercise and stressor predictability training. These enrichment types are described in terms of three key mechanisms involved in building resilience: coping with stress, cognitive flexibility, and behavioural adaptability. Exercise, particularly at moderate levels, can help regulate stress responses, promote neuroplasticity, and encourage positive social behaviours. Stressor predictability can also reduce the magnitude of stress responses and support proactive coping strategies by allowing fish to anticipate and prepare for environmental challenges. The relationship between resilience and fish welfare was also examined, highlighting the potential of these approaches as welfare management tools for aquaculture. The effectiveness of such interventions is likely to be species- and context-dependent, with outcomes influenced by how fish perceive and experience environmental conditions and practical constraints of large-scale aquaculture systems. However, integrating resilience-building strategies into aquaculture practices may not only enhance welfare but also improve production efficiency and economic performance, helping the industry meet societal expectations and long-term sustainability goals.</p>","PeriodicalId":227,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Aquaculture","volume":"17 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/raq.70051","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144323540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we study how the “mussel miracle” was forged, that is, how the Chilean mussel industry was able to transition from exporting negligible volumes of mussels to becoming the world's biggest exporter of mussels. We also analyze the impacts of this expansion on environmental, economic, and social conditions, as well as the challenges the industry faces. We use semistructured interviews conducted with different key informants in the Los Lagos region in southern Chile, where almost all Chilean mussel production is based. We also review the existing literature and analyze Aquaculture Performance Indicators (APIs) data recently collected to assess the performance of aquaculture production systems in the country. The Chilean mussel industry's rapid growth during 1994–1996 was enabled by natural conditions in the Los Lagos region, aquaculture research, and trade liberalization. Investments by foreign and domestic stakeholders further boosted production and exports. The industry has provided significant environmental benefits, such as mitigating eutrophication, and created over 12,000 jobs in coastal communities.

As production increases, the intensification of production increases the risk of disease outbreaks. Infections caused by viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens represent a major threat to farm economy and growth. To minimize this threat, knowledge of the costs, benefits of prevention, and treatment of diseases is important. Despite the significant costs related to diseases, which are estimated to be 6 billion USD annually, only a limited number of studies have analyzed their economic impacts. A lack of a consistent framework in the literature for identifying the costs of diseases and the gains obtained from avoiding them also presents challenges for the sector in terms of providing a proper response. This paper provides an overview of 29 peer-reviewed articles that estimate economic losses due to diseases and/or quantify the economic gains of reducing them through management. The PRISMA methodology was used for article selections. This overview provides information to farmers and policy-makers on the magnitude of the potential costs and benefits of controlling diseases. The studies are diverse, especially with respect to diseases, economic impacts at different levels, and units of measurement. We have therefore classified them using a consistent framework.

Although global production has doubled in 7 years, reaching approximately 9000 tons per year in 2021, its cultivation remains limited compared to other mainstream species. The commercial aquaculture of this species faces several key challenges in achieving improved production and sustainability: nutrition requirements, disease management, and the optimization of reproductive technologies. Current diets for yellowtail kingfish require further improvement to enhance both growth performance and sustainability. Diseases continue to be a major constraint, with at least 41 specific diseases reported for yellowtail kingfish and 31 affecting other <i>Seriola</i> species, emphasizing the necessity of targeted diagnostic tools and treatment strategies. Recent genomic advances have shed light on the biology and taxonomy of yellowtail kingfish, revealing genetically distinct populations across the South Pacific, Indian, and South Atlantic Oceans. However, the taxonomic status within the Pacific region remains unclear, requiring further research. Addressing these gaps is vital for developing robust breeding programs and improving genetic resilience. To support the sustainable expansion of yellowtail kingfish aquaculture, key areas for future research include increasing larval and juvenile survival rates, minimizing malformations, and tailoring farming models to diverse environmental conditions.
