Popis: This study evaluated the effects of dietary sesame oil extracted from autoclaved, roasted and fermented sesame seed meal on growth, nutrient utilization and muscle fatty acid composition of Til-aqua natural male tilapia. Four isonitrogenous (crude protein content: 35%) and iso-energetic (Gross energy: 19.36 KJ/g) diets were formulated to contain 3% of either fish oil (FO) or oils extracted from autoclaved (AO), roasted (RO) or fermented (FEO) sesame seed meals. Each diet was assigned to duplicate groups of Til-aqua natural male tilapia (initial average weight, 2.78±0.02 g) using recirculating aquaculture systems for 56 days. Specific growth rate 0.8 (2.93%/day) and metabolic growth rate (9.68 g/kg /day) recorded in the group fed RO diet were significantly lower (P
