Abstract(s)
Vertebral deformities are frequent and constitute a major drawback for many aquaculture
produced species. Lordosis and kyphosis, which are severe curvatures of the vertebral column, are
particularly problematic, compromising fish marketing and profitability. Senegalese sole is a
species with increasing interest in this industry and, like many others, presents high frequencies of
vertebral deformities under rearing conditions.
