Integration of finfish in shrimp (Penaeus monodon) culture: an effective disease prevention strategy
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2002)
A farm trial on integration of finfish (i.e., tilapia) in shrimp (Penaeus monodon) culture was conducted in Negros Occidental, Philippines to prevent luminous vibriosis in shrimp. The farm engaged in shrimp monoculture ...
Advances in diagnosis and management of shrimp virus diseases in the Americas
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2002)
The most important diseases of cultured penaeid shrimp, in terms of economic impact, in Asia, the Indo-Pacific, and the Americas, have infectious etiologies. Although diseases with bacterial, fungal, and parasitic etiologies ...
Hematological changes in snakeskin gourami, Trichogaster pectoralis, affected by epizootic ulcerative syndrome
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Selected hematological parameters of the circulating blood of snakeskin gourami, Trichogaster pectoralis, naturally affected by epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) were compared with those of apparently healthy fish collected ...
Vibriosis vaccine development: Immunological characterization of Vibrio alginolyticus
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) profiles of five Vibrio alginolyticus strains (14, 17, 26, 78 and ATCC 17749) were studied by SDS-PAGE. Strains (ST) 14, 17 and 26 were found to possess high molecular weight bands, suggesting ...
Major viral and bacterial diseases of cultured seabass and groupers in Southeast Asia
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Floating net-cage culture of fish was established in the early 1970s in Southeast Asia and has become very popular since. Although several species of marine and diadromous fishes have been successfully cultured, only a few ...
Quorum sensing and its potential application to vibriosis
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Quorum sensing is a gene regulatory mechanism by which certain pathogenic and symbiotic bacteria respond to population density and host association. By mediating the ability of bacteria such as Vibrio harveyi to infect ...
Identification and characterization of Vibrio bacteria isolated from fish and shellfish in Vietnam
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
A taxonomic relationship of thirty one Vietnamese bacterial isolates from different fish and shellfish together with twenty two reference strains was investigated by Euclidean distance with unweighted average linkage ...
Growth promotion and enhancement of vibriosis resistance in penaeid shrimp after oral administration of lactic acid bacteria and marine bacteria
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Vibriosis is one of the most serious problems in the shrimp culture industry worldwide. Antibiotic treatment is becoming less and less effective, as new strains of pathogens evolve, which are resistant to commonly used ...
Evaluation of the susceptibility of the shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei to vibriosis when exposed to agriculture pesticides
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Due to increasing stringency of environmental regulations, agricultural production systems have switched from persistent pesticides to products which degrade more rapidly. In spite of that, new pesticide products can affect ...
Epizootic ulcerative syndrome of fishes: rhabdovirus infection and EUS induction experiments in snakehead fish
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Rhabdoviral agents have long been found to be associated with Epizootic Ulcerative Syndrome (EUS) although the presence of granulomas caused by the fungus Aphanomyces invadans is currently used as the diagnostic criterium ...
