background: increase in aquatic production is dependent on raw materials, quality of diet, feed manufacture technology and optimum feed formulation. objectives: the aim of this study was investigation and quality control feed of fft, gft1 and gft2 of rainbow trout in farm and fish feed factory producers in chaharmahal and bakhtiari province. methods: in this study samples of fft, gft1 and gft2 ...

A commercial red tilapia farm was diagnosed with Streptococcus agalactiae infection using histopathology, microbiology and immunohistochemistry. One hundred fish were randomly taken from different weight/age groups including broodstock, market fish (larger than 150 g), on-growing fish between 20 and 150 g, juveniles and larvae. Fish were clinically examined, anaesthetised and necropsied. Sample...

Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) could infect many economic fish species and cause the fish nervous tissue necrosis vacuolization in histopathology. Once the fish is infected with NNV, 80-100% mortality will occour in grouper breeding farm. However, the immune system does not develop completely in grouper larva. Therefore, the traditional vaccine may not be effective during larva stage. This study ...

Atlantic salmon Salmo salar are extensively farmed throughout their natural range, and unintentional interactions between farmed fish and wild populations have been implicated in the decline of wild salmon. The trace element composition of salmon scales distinguishes wild from farmed fish, and potentially provides a rapid and cheap method to assess the extent of escaped farmed fish within a wil...

Motile aeromonad septicemia caused by mesophilic strains of Aeromonas hydrophila is a widespread problem in cultured freshwater fish. We announce here the draft genome sequence of the multidrug-resistant A. hydrophila strain Ae25, isolated from a koi carp (Cyprinus carpio) with motile aeromonad septicemia that was collected from an ornamental fish-breeding farm in Sri Lanka.

Aeromonas hydrophila is an emerging pathogen of poikilothermic animals, from fish to mammals, including humans. Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of the A. hydrophila AH-3 strain, isolated from a fish farm goldfish septicemia outbreak in Spain, with a characterized polar and lateral flagellum glycosylation pattern.

Viruses of the genus Megalocytivirus have not been detected in wild populations of fish in Australia but circulate in imported ornamental fish. In 2012, detection of a megalocytivirus in healthy platys Xiphophorus maculatus was reported from a farm in Australia during surveillance testing as part of a research project undertaken at the University of Sydney. Confirmatory testing of the original ...

3 Fish farms represent a growing source of disturbance to shallow benthic ecosystems like 4 seagrass meadows. Despite some existing insights on the mechanisms underlying decline, efficient tools 5 to quantitatively predict the response of benthic communities to fish farm effluents have not yet been 6 developed. We explored relationships of fish farm organic and nutrient input rates to the sedim...

the aim of this descriptive- correlational study was to assess trout farm fisheries owners' managerial skills and its relation with their farm yield. the statistical population consisted of all trout farm fisheries with official production license in mahneshan county (147 units) which 110 units as sample selected by multi-stage randomized sampling method based on cochran's sampling fo...
