A 154-day feeding experiment was conducted using juveniles (39.2 ± 1.6 g average weight).Three isolipidic and isoenergetic meal-based diets were formulated varying their lipidcomponent. The control diet contained 100% FO (FO100), whereas diets VO50 andVO100 included 1/2 of oil blend and all the oil from blend of palm oil (PO) and linseedoil (LO) as substitute for FO, respectively. Dietary regime did not significantly affectgrowth performance, biometric indices, feed efficiency, plasma chemistry and liverand muscle lipid contents. Nonetheless, dietary VO inclusion impacted on the fattyacid profile of target tissues, especially in the liver. Fatty acid profiles of the fillets reflected those of the dietary oils except that there was apparent selective utilization ofpalmitic acid (C16:0) and oleic acid (C18:1n-9) and apparent selective retention oflong-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA,C20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6n-3). The nutritional value and thepotential ability to prevent the development of coronary heart diseases of the fleshlipid fraction decreased with gradual FO substitution.
