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 ...
Tilapia Aquaculture, Disease Challenges and Understanding the roles of the Skin Microbiomes in Health and Disease
Type: Journal Article
Aquaculture is playing an increasingly important role in global food security, especially for low-income and food-deficit countries. The majority of aquaculture production occurs in freshwater earthen ponds and tilapia has ...
Typology of interventions for antimicrobial use and antimicrobial resistance in aquaculture systems in low- and middle-income countries
Type: Journal Article
Indiscriminate antimicrobial use (AMU) in aquaculture to treat and prevent diseases is common and can lead to the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant micro-organisms, potentially impacting public health and connected ...
Concentration and quantification of Tilapia tilapinevirus from water using a simple iron flocculation coupled with probe-based RT-qPCR
Type: Journal Article
Background: Tilapia tilapinevirus, also known as tilapia lake virus (TiLV), is a significant virus that is responsible for the die-off of farmed tilapia across the globe. The detection and quantification of the virus using ...
Rapid genotyping of tilapia lake virus (TiLV) using Nanopore sequencing
Type: Journal Article
Infectious 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 ...
From the basics to emerging diagnostic technologies: What is on the horizon for tilapia disease diagnostics?
Type: Journal Article
Tilapia is an affordable protein source farmed in over 140 countries with the majority of production in low- and middle-income countries. Intensification of tilapia farming has exacerbated losses caused by emerging and ...
Relationships between pond water and tilapia skin microbiomes in aquaculture ponds in Malawi
Type: Journal Article
Intensification 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 ...
Tilapia Lake Virus was not detected in non-tilapine species within tilapia polyculture systems of Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
Sixteen countries, including Bangladesh, have reported the presence of tilapia lake virus (TiLV), an emerging tilapia pathogen. Fish polyculture is a common farming practice in Bangladesh. Some unusual mortalities reported ...
Genetic characterization and antimicrobial profiling of bacterial isolates collected from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) affected by summer mortality syndrome
Type: Journal Article
In recent years, Egyptian tilapia aquaculture has experienced mortality episodes during the summer months. The causative agents responsible for such mortalities have not been clearly identified. A total of 400 fish specimens ...
Genetic parameters for black spot disease (diplopstomiasis) caused by Uvulifer sp. infection in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.)
Type: Journal Article
Black spot disease (diplopstomiasis), an external melanized host inflammatory response caused by a number of digenetic trematode parasites, results in slow growth, deformities and increased mortality among many freshwater ...
