Summary:

Disease is a result of interrelated interactions among the host, the environment and the pathogen. As with other diseases, early mortality syndrome/acute hepatopancreatic syndrome in shrimp does not involve a simple disease process, so a single, all-encompassing solution is unlikely. The development of polymerase chain reaction testing to detect the bacteria that cause EMS is important, but until further testing confirms its specific identification of the

Since 2009, protein from aquaculture production has surpassed that of fisheries for the first time in history. Aquaculture is simply a water-based agriculture with a long history. It is an essential source of nutrition, as well as a source of income for large number of communities. Aquaculture is here to stay, despite opposition to aquaculture from segments of the NGO community and commercial fisher folk. It is also certain to play an ever increasingly important role in feeding the Earth`s bu

Sludge at harvest time, etc. There is not a single universal set of guidelines that can be followed, i.e. a recipe, for the production of biofloc. There are, however, some consistent features of these systems and understanding what they are and ensuring that the system is conducive to the formation of these particulate materials will go a long way towards ensuring that a degree of reproducibility is achieved.

Following three years of exhaustive efforts, an international team of researchers announced in April they’d found the cause of a disease that, since 2009, has killed billions of shrimp raised on farms in Southeast Asia.

Yet while the news was welcome, Donald Lightner, Ph.D., widely credited with finding the cause of the outbreak, says only half the problem is solved. As of June, no means of stopping the spread of the disease, commonly called “early mortality syndrome,&r
