Nigeria is one of Africa's largest aquaculture producers with catfish and tilapia being dominantly farmed. However, the lack of biosecurity and an unclear aquatic animal health strategy have resulted in substantial ...
Unlocking the technology for mola (Amblypharyngodon mola) mass production hastens nutrition-sensitive aquaculture in India
Type: Journal Article
Despite advances in health services, undernutrition remains one of the major public health issues in India. The recent National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5) highlighted pervasive malnutrition among children and women in ...
Tilapia aquaculture, emerging diseases, and 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 ...
Nanopore sequencing for identification and characterization of antimicrobial-resistant Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. from tilapia and shrimp sold at wet markets in Dhaka, Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
Wet markets in low-and middle-income countries are often reported to have inadequate sanitation resulting in fecal contamination of sold produce. Consumption of contaminated wet market-sourced foods has been linked to ...
