(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology (SIAMB), 2014)
A growth experiment was conducted on juvenile red sea bream, Pagrus major to investigate the effect of the inclusion in fish diets, of tuna meat by-product hydrolysate which was processed through enzymatic hydrolysis using ...
Evidence of WSSV transmission from the rotifer (Brachionus plicatilis) to the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) postlarvae and means to control rotifer resting eggs using industrial disinfectants
(Bioflux, 2012)
Rotifers are considered possible vectors of the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) and have been implicated in its recurrence in pond-cultured shrimp. However, direct evidence of the transmission and the pathogenicity of ...
Dietary onion or ginger modulates the stress response and susceptibility to Vibrio harveyi JML1 infection in brown-marbled grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus juveniles
(American Fisheries Society, 2018)
Onion Allium cepa and ginger Zingiber officinale have health‐promoting properties that qualify them as functional foods. The effect of repeated acute stressors was examined in juvenile Brown‐marbled Grouper Epinephelus ...
