A review of inclusive business models and their application in aquaculture development
Type: Journal Article
For aquaculture to continue along its current growth trajectory and contribute towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, value chains must become more inclusive. Smallholders and other local value chain actors ...
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 ...
Impact of substitution of fish meal by high protein distillers dried grains on growth performance, plasma protein and economic benefit of striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus)
Type: Journal Article
Modern aquaculture requires the reduction of the feeds cost, which can partly be achieved by minimal use of dietary animal protein. Therefore, this experiment assessing the nutritional potential of using high protein ...
Evidence for action: a One Health learning platform on interventions to tackle antimicrobial resistance
Type: Journal Article
Improving evidence for action is crucial to tackle antimicrobial resistance. The number of interventions for antimicrobial resistance is increasing but current research has major limitations in terms of efforts, methods, ...
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
Type: Journal Article
Flavobacterium 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, ...
Population, temperature and feeding rate effects on individual feed efficiency in European Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax)
Type: Journal Article
Using breeding programs to improve feed efficiency, the ratio between fish body weight gain (BWG) and feed intake (FI), could increase aquaculture sustainability through reduced feed costs and environmental impact. To this ...
Evaluating antimicrobial resistance in the global shrimp industry
Type: Journal Article
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing threat to global public health, and the overuse of antibiotics in animals has been identified as a major risk factor. With high levels of international trade and direct connectivity ...
Development and validation of an open access SNP array for 2 Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus)
Type: Journal Article
Tilapia are amongst the most important farmed fish species worldwide, and are fundamental for the food security of many developing countries. Several genetically improved Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) strains exist, ...
Genetic diversity of tilapia lake virus genome segment 1 from 2011 to 2019 and a newly validated semi-nested RT-PCR method
Type: Journal Article
The gene of RNA viruses, encoding RNA-directed RNA polymerase (RdRp) is relatively conserved due to its crucial function in viral genome replication and transcription making it a useful target for genetic diversity study ...
Experimental and survey-based data on willingness to pay for seafood safety and environmental sustainability certification in Nigeria
Type: Journal Article
Fish/seafood represents an increasingly important source of animal protein in diets globally. Aquaculture growth, which already constitutes half of all seafood consumed by humans, is critical to meet increasing demand for ...
