Popis: In the present study, the effects of β-glucan administration in water on growth performance and blood status (hematological indexes, immunological and biochemical parameters) were evaluated in Nile tilapia fingerlings (Oreochromis niloticus) under hypoxia-induced stress. In parallel, effect of this prebiotic (beta-glucan) was evaluated on gut microbiota diversity (16S rRNA gene) under normal oxygenation condition. Three treatments were implemented according to beta-glucan water supplementation: 0 (control), 0.1 and 0.3 mg L−1. Blood was collected before hypoxic challenge (BHC) and 9 h after hypoxic challenge (AHC). No significant differences were observed according to growh performance parameters. A significant increase in erythrocyte number and decrease in mean corpuscular volume (P
