AB  - Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) is a mixture of structure and 
  geometric isomers of C<SUB>18:2</SUB> fatty acids. Currently, it has been widespread 
  concerned for the special physiological functions. This review elucidated the 
  significance of the studies in the effects of dietary CLA on the growth performance, 
  body composition, lipid contents and fatty acid composition of fish. Sorting 
  earlier literatures, researchers found that dietary CLA can affect the growth 
  performance and body composition of fish while the differences between different 
  fish species are significant. Earlier studies in a number of species show that 
  dietary CLA may have effects on the growth rate of fish but the results are 
  diverging. This difference is mainly because of the mixed amount and the isomer 
  composition ratio of CLA. There are evidences demonstrated that the impacts 
  of CLA on fish&#146;s growth were closely related to the isomers of CLA. Dietary 
  CLA (cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12 isomers) inclusion resulted in significant 
  increases of the contents of Saturated Fatty Acids (SFA) and Polyunsaturated 
  Fatty Acids (PUFA) (p&lt;0.05) and decreased Monounsaturated Fatty Acid (MUFA) 
  content (p&lt;0.05) in both muscle and liver tissues.
