Table 2.

The statistic significance of effects (p-values) caused by the dietary fish oil level (Oil), resveratrol supplementation (RV), holding temperature (Temp.), and the interaction of either two factors or all three factors. The p-values are given for the effects on the selected growth and performance parameters, body nutrients, and fatty acids (FAs) of different tissues of gilthead sea bream at the end of the eight weeks trial.
