Is tilapia mortality a latent concern for the aquaculture sector of Bangladesh? An epidemiology and health economic impact study
Type: Journal Article
Tilapia are the 3rd most cultured aquaculture species in global aquaculture, produced in over 170 countries. Bangladesh is the world's fourth-largest tilapia producer and yet only few studies have been conducted to understand ...
Raising awareness of antimicrobial resistance in rural aquaculture practice in Bangladesh through digital communications: a pilot study
Type: Journal Article
One 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 ...
Dietary non-starch polysaccharides influenced natural food web and fish production in semi-intensive pond culture of Nile tilapia
Type: Journal Article
Dietary non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) changes the nutrient digestibility and faecal characteristics in fish. This study assessed the effect of the type of dietary NSPs on fish production and the contribution of natural ...
Assessment of the efficacy of prophylactic health products on water quality and shrimp (Penaeus monodon) performance at the nursery phase
Type: Journal Article
The aim was to assess the efficacy of prophylactic health products (PHPs) on shrimp
(Penaeus monodon) post larvae (PL) during the nursery phase. This included five treatments: infeed probiotic (F_PRO), water probiotic ...
Effect of eco-physiological factors on biometric traits of green mussel Perna viridis cultured in the south-east coast of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
Information on allometry, condition indices (CIs), and biometric traits (BTs) of marine bivalves are necessary for determining the growth pattern and the size at which harvest can be intensified to maximize production in ...
Fish, roots, tubers and bananas: opportunities and constraints for agri-food system integration
Type: Journal Article
Agri-food system integration has the potential to increase and add value to agricultural production, reduce cost of and dependency on external inputs, generate additional income to farmers, and encourage the diversification ...
Genotype-by-culture-system interaction in catla and silver carp: Monoculture and biculture
Type: Journal Article
Catla (Catla catla) and silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) are globally significant aquaculture species, primarily grown in polyculture. The objectives of the current study were to i) quantify genetic differences ...
Effect of dietary carbohydrate to lipid ratio on performance of Nile tilapia and enhancement of natural food in pond aquaculture
Type: Journal Article
This study tested the effect of two diets differing in carbohydrate to lipid (CHO:LIP) ratio (4.7 vs. 19.5 g/g) on the contribution of natural food and the total fish production in tilapia ponds. Eight ponds, each divided ...
Reassortment and evolutionary dynamics of tilapia lake virus genomic segments
Type: Journal Article
The 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 ...
Antibiotics usage practices in aquaculture in Bangladesh and their associated factors
Type: Journal Article
Background: Irrational and inappropriate use of antibiotics in aquaculture can contribute to the development of antibiotic resistance.
Objectives: In this study, we aimed to assess antibiotic usage in inland and coastal ...
