Quick fish sampling guide for disease diagnostics - Bacteriology sampling guide
(2021)Type: ToolBacterial diseases represent one of the major impediments to sustainable aquaculture. Routine screening for bacterial pathogens at various life stages of tilapia, carp and catfish a are important to minimize their introduction ... -
Quick fish sampling guide for disease diagnostics - Blood sampling guide
(2021)Type: ToolFish blood sampling requires specific techniques and skills that are fundamental for all kinds of analyses such as haematology, chemistry analysis, parasitology/bacteriology investigation, antibody titration, molecular ... -
Quick fish sampling guide for disease diagnostics - Histology sampling guide
(2021)Type: ToolDuring investigation of an abnormal mortality event, fish tissues (or biopsies) for histopathology analysis are collected for disease diagnosis. Histology consists in the preparation of thin, stained tissue sections for ... -
Quick fish sampling guide for disease diagnostics - Microbiome sampling guide
(2021)Type: ToolInteractions between microbes associated with the host, other organisms present in the system and the environment itself are increasingly recognised to contribute to aquatic animal diseases. Those microbiome assemblages ... -
Quick fish sampling guide for disease diagnostics - Molecular diagnostics sampling guide
(2021)Type: ToolMajor pathogens of fish and other farmed aquatic animals include bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites. These can lead to serious infectious diseases and losses representing one of the major limitation to sustainable ... -
Quick fish sampling guide for disease diagnostics - Wet mount sampling guide (for ectoparasites & fungi)
(2021)Type: ToolParasitic and fungal infestations represent one of the major challenges to sustainable aquaculture. As part of routine health checks or during abnormal mortality events, screening for ectoparasites and fungi in tilapia, ... -
Quick protocol for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) in aquatic animal species from aquaculture and fisheries
(2021)Type: ToolAntimicrobial Resistance (AMR) happens when microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites are able to resist the inhibition or killing effects of medicines used to treat the infections they cause, making ... -
Raising awareness of antimicrobial resistance in rural aquaculture practice in Bangladesh through digital communications: a pilot study
(2020)Type: Journal ArticleOne of the key strategic objectives of the World Health Organisation’s global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) action plan is to improve public awareness and understanding of this issue. Very few AMR awareness campaigns have ... -
Rapid assessment of fish seed and feed in Rangpur and Rajshahi divisions for the Project ‘Aquaculture: increasing income, diversifying diets, and empowering women in Bangladesh and Nigeria’
Type: Internal ReportThis rapid assessment was conducted to identify the feed and seed input supply for fish aquaculture in Rajshahi and Rangpur divisions. This document presents the findings of the assessment. The assessment used several ... -
Rapid genomic detection of aquaculture pathogens
Type: PosterAquaculture is the world’s fastest growing food sector increasingly and is recognized for its potential to alleviate poverty and hunger in small-scale systems. However, progress is limited by diseases and lack of knowledge ... -
Rapid genotyping of tilapia lake virus (TiLV) using Nanopore sequencing
(2021)Type: Journal ArticleInfectious diseases represent one of the major challenges to sustainable aquaculture production. Rapid, accurate diagnosis and genotyping of emerging pathogens during early-suspected disease cases is critical to facilitate ... -
Rapid sequencing and characterization of bacterial genomes.
(2021)Type: ReportTraining component of the 2019 Inspire challenge project : Rapid genomic detection of aquaculture pathogens (CGIAR Platform for Big Data in Agriculture) -
Rapid visualization in the specific detection of Flavobacterium columnare, a causative agent of freshwater columnaris using a novel recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) combined with lateral flow dipstick (LFD) assay
(2020)Type: Journal ArticleFlavobacterium columnare is the causative agent of columnaris, a serious disease affecting numerous freshwater fish species worldwide. Although several molecular protocols have been established to detect this pathogen, ... -
Reassortment and evolutionary dynamics of tilapia lake virus genomic segments
(2021)Type: Journal ArticleThe tilapia lake virus (TiLV), a highly infectious negative-sense single-stranded segmented RNA virus, has caused several outbreaks worldwide since its first report from Israel in 2014, and continues to pose a major threat ... -
Recirculating Aquaculture Is Possible without Major Energy Tradeoff: Life Cycle Assessment of Warmwater Fish Farming in Sweden
Type: Journal ArticleSeafood is seen as promising for more sustainable diets. The increasing production in land-based closed Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RASs) has overcome many local environmental challenges with traditional open net-pen ... -
Reducing disease risks in fish through better detection, management and prevention
Type: BriefAquaculture productivity is limited by the introduction and spread of infectious fish diseases, which compromise fish farming livelihoods and food and nutrition security in Asia and Africa. Epidemiological tools provide ... -
Reducing post-harvest losses in Nigeria's aquaculture sector contributes to sustainable development
(2020)Type: BlogWhile increasing fish production and productivity in the long term are practical strategies for increasing fish consumption that address malnutrition in Nigeria, reducing post-harvest losses of fish from farm-gate to ... -
The relation between farming practices and tilapia production in small-scale fish farms in Bangladesh.
(2019)Type: Working PaperBecause of its climate and vast water resources, Bangladesh is highly suitable for fisheries. Unsurprisingly, fisheries supply the majority of animal protein (60%) in Bangladeshi diets and provide employment to over 17 ... -
Relationships between pond water and tilapia skin microbiomes in aquaculture ponds in Malawi
(2022)Type: Journal ArticleIntensification of fish farming practices is being driven by the demand for increased food production to support a rapidly growing global human population, particularly in lower-middle income countries. Intensification of ... -
Replacing fishmeal with a single cell protein feedstuff in Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus diets
(2021)Type: Journal ArticleThere is a growing concern about the use of fisheries-derived proteins in aquaculture. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of either partially or totally replacing fishmeal (up to 15% of the diet) by the ...
