Abstract

A total of 270 genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT, Oreochromis nilticus) with an average initial body weight of (78.58±1.93) g were randomly distributed into 6 groups consisting of 3 replicates (15 fish per replicate), and each group was fed a diet with vitamin D supplemental level was 0 (basal diet), 200, 400, 800, 1 600 or 3 200 IU/kg for 12 weeks. The contents of crude protein and crude lipid in six diets were all 30% and 7.6%, respectively. After 12 weeks, the growth performance, body composition and serum biochemical indices were measured to detect the suitable supplemental level of vitamin D in the diet of GIFT. The results showed as follows:the weight gain rate of fish in vitamin D-added groups was significantly higher than that of fish in control group (P<0.05), and the feed efficiency in 200, 400, 800 and 1 600 IU/kg groups was significantly higher than that of fish in control group (P<0.05). The contents of crude protein and moisture in whole body had no significant differences among various groups (P>0.05). Moreover, the crude lipid content in whole body was firstly increased and then decreased as the dietary vitamin D supplemental level increasing, and it was the highest in 200 IU/kg group which was significantly higher than that in other groups (P<0.05). The ash content in whole body of fish in vitamin D-added groups was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05), but no significant differences existed in the vitamin D-added groups (P>0.05). With the dietary vitamin D supplemental level increasing, serum alkaline phosphatase activity was firstly increased and subsequently decreased with the dietary vitamin D supplemental level increasing, and it was significantly higher in 200, 400, 800 IU/kg groups than that in control group (P<0.05). Serum total cholesterol, albumin and total protein contents reached the highest in 200 IU/kg group,and it significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05). In conclusion, the appropriate dietary vitamin D supplementation promotes the growth of GIFT in growth mid-stage, but high supplemental levels of vitamin D may cause liver damage and affect fat metabolism. According to the regression analysis with the weight gain rate as the evaluation index, the suitable vitamin D supplemental level for GIFT in growth mid-stage is 259.8 IU/kg diet.
