What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Animal science (32.87%)
  • Fishery (24.57%)
  • Nile tilapia (12.46%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Johan A.J. Verreth spends much of his time researching Animal science, Fishery, Nile tilapia, Aquaculture and Common sole. Johan A.J. Verreth has included themes like Biochemistry, Carbohydrate, Blood plasma, Biomass and Feed conversion ratio in his Animal science study. His study looks at the relationship between Feed conversion ratio and topics such as Catfish, which overlap with Food science, Feces and Nutrient digestibility.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Rabbitfish, Siganus canaliculatus, Bioconcentration and Lipid content in addition to Fishery. His Nile tilapia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fish farming, Tilapia, Distillers grains and Fish meal. In general Aquaculture, his work in Recirculating aquaculture system is often linked to Net present value linking many areas of study.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Nutrient mineralization and organic matter reduction performance of RAS-based sludge in sequential UASB-EGSB reactors (32 citations)
  • The effect of type of carbohydrate (starch vs. nonstarch polysaccharides) on nutrients digestibility, energy retention and maintenance requirements in Nile tilapia (31 citations)
  • Probiotic legacy effects on gut microbial assembly in tilapia larvae (25 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Enzyme
  • Agriculture

Johan A.J. Verreth mainly investigates Nile tilapia, Animal science, Aquaculture, Pangasius and Agriculture. The various areas that Johan A.J. Verreth examines in his Nile tilapia study include Lamina propria, Ecology, Tilapia and Fish meal. His Animal science research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Blue mussel, Biochemistry, Common carp, Carp and Nutrient.

His Nutrient study which covers Soleá that intersects with Fishery. His studies deal with areas such as Hormone, Endocrinology and Plant protein as well as Aquaculture. His Agriculture research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Access to finance and Sustainability.
