A high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of rohu carp, Labeo rohita, and its utilization in SNP-based exploration of gene flow and sex determination
Type: Journal Article
Labeo rohita (rohu) is a carp important to aquaculture in South Asia, with a production volume close to Atlantic salmon. While genetic improvements to rohu are ongoing, the genomic methods commonly used in other aquaculture ...
Retention of fish biodiversity in a mixed-use agroecosystem in Cambodia
Type: Journal Article
Fisheries of the Mekong Basin are crucial to regional food security. They rely on seasonal monsoon rains that inundate rice fields and reconnect water bodies. Species assemblages vary over time and space, but infrastructure ...
Aquatic foods at the nutrition–environment nexus
Type: Journal Article
A recent analysis of the environmental footprint of the world’s food systems found that aquatic foods, which include all fish, shellfish and seaweeds that are farmed or harvested in marine or freshwater environments, supply ...
A multiplexed RT‑PCR assay for nanopore whole genome sequencing of Tilapia lake virus (TiLV)
Type: Journal Article
Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) is a highly contagious viral pathogen that affects tilapia, a globally significant and affordable source of fish protein. To prevent the introduction and spread of TiLV and its impact, there is ...
Understanding aquaculture biosecurity to improve catfish disease management in Ogun and Delta States, Nigeria
Type: Journal Article
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 ...
Four ways blue foods can help achieve food system ambitions across nations
Type: Journal Article
Blue foods, sourced in aquatic environments, are important for the economies, livelihoods, nutritional security and cultures of people in many nations. They are often nutrient rich, generate lower emissions and impacts on ...
A framework for analysing water security of Tonle Sap Lake in the Mekong River basin: Flow, volume, inundation, productivity and livelihoods
Type: Journal Article
Water is a scarce resource globally, and a water shortage worldwide would cause water security. Although there is plenty of literature studying water security, many discuss water security concerning water quality that is ...
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 ...
Bacterial and microalgal communities in carp polyculture systems: Composition, affecting factors and further perspectives
Type: Journal Article
Carp polyculture is the planet's most widely practiced fish production system, using multiple fish species living in diverse trophic and spatial niches of a pond to maximize productivity. Increases in farm productivity can ...
