MIXOTROPHIC METHOD OF AQUACULTURE
The present invention relates to a method of aquaculture of at least one farmed organism, such as fish, shrimp or any organism suitable for farming in an aquatic environment. There is provided a method of aquaculture of at least one farmed organism, the method comprising steps: (i) providing an aquatic environment comprising at least one farmed organism, phytoplankton and bacteria; (ii) providing at least one phytoplankton nutrient and at least one bacteria nutrient during a first predetermined period, allowing phytoplankton and bacteria to grow in a first predetermined phytoplankton:bacteria ratio of more than 1; (iii) providing at least one phytoplankton nutrient and at least one bacteria nutrient during a second predetermined period, allowing phytoplankton and bacteria to grow in a second predetermined phytoplankton:bacteria ratio, wherein the second predetermined phytoplankton:bacteria ratio is lower than the first predetermined phytoplankton:bacteria ratio; and (iv) providing at least one phytoplankton nutrient and at least one bacteria nutrient during a third predetermined period, allowing phytoplankton and bacteria to grow in a third predetermined phytoplankton:bacteria ratio, wherein the third predetermined phytoplankton:bacteria ratio is lower than the second predetermined phytoplankton:bacteria ratio, thereby allowing the at least one farmed organism to grow.
Methods for improving the nutritional value of the animal feed using a protease
The present invention relates to isolated polypeptides having protease activity and isolated polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods of producing and using the polypeptides in e.g. animal feed and detergents.
THRAUSTOCHYTRIDS, FATTY ACID COMPOSITIONS, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USES THEREOF
The present invention is directed to isolated thraustochytrid microorganisms as well as strains and mutants thereof The invention is further directed to biomasses, microbial oils, compositions, cultures, methods of producing microbial oils, and methods of using the isolated thraustochytrids, biomasses, and microbial oils.

Methods for producing a high protein corn meal from a whole stillage byproduct and system therefore
The present invention relates generally to corn dry-milling, and more specifically, to methods for producing a high protein corn meal from a whole stillage byproduct produced in a corn dry-milling process for making ethanol and a system therefore. In one embodiment, a method for producing a high protein corn meal from a whole stillage byproduct includes, in a corn dry-milling process for making ethanol, separating the whole stillage byproduct into an insoluble solids portion and a thin stillage portion. The thin stillage portion is separated into a protein portion and a water soluble solids portion. Next, the protein portion is dewatered then dried to define a high protein corn meal that includes at least 40 wt % protein on a dry basis.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROPAGATING DIPTERAN LARVAE
A method is provided for mass-rearing black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) to the mature larval stage just prior to the pre-pupal developmental stage. The BSFL biomass produced by the mass-rearing methods can be used for processing decayable biological or organic waste and converting it into protein meal for animal feeds and melanin or melanin-associated proteins.
NON-GRAIN ECOLOGICAL FEED AS WELL AS PREPARATION METHOD AND FEEDING METHOD THEREOF
A complicated enzyme system and microorganisms are used for acting on straws and food industrial residues to convert the straws and the food industrial residues into glucose and part of oligosaccharide, amino acids, small peptides, inositol and nucleic acids and to supply mineral substances, trace elements and nutritional substances such as vitamins in the straws and the food industrial residues to monogastric animals for use. Through adding of Chinese herbal medicines, the digestion function of a monogastric animal may be enhanced, and the immune function of the monogastric animal may be enhanced, thereby reducing occurrence of diseases. In addition, the complicated enzyme system supplements exogenous enzymes in a digestive tract of the monogastric animal to reduce protein and phytic acid residues in excrements, reduce odor and improve the environment of a hog house, thereby obviously reducing drug and treatment costs.
EICOSAPENTAENOIC ACID-PRODUCING MICROORGANISMS, FATTY ACID COMPOSITIONS, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USES THEREOF
