Abstract:
... Proliferative gill disease (PGD), caused by the myxozoan Henneguya ictaluri, is an important parasitic disease in U.S. catfish aquaculture. Continuous exposure of Channel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus to the actinospore stage of H. ictaluri results in a severe inflammatory response at the gills, leading to morbidity and death. Previous work indicates that the chemical cues in fish mucus that are rec ...

Abstract:
... The Hogfish Lachnolaimus maximus is a high‐value food fish with significant recreational and commercial fishing pressure and is a candidate species for marine aquaculture. There is a need to define safe and effective methods of anesthesia for handling of this species for aquaculture. Anesthesia efficacy was assessed with wild‐collected adult (>20 cm; 0.2–1.2 kg) and juvenile F₁ (<11 cm; 5–50 g) Ho ...

Thus, we conducted an empirical study of 1,821 consumers of tilapia in China. We aimed to identify the perception of tilapia among Chinese consumers and to investigate the factors that might influence their perceptions by using a logit model. The maj ...
