Improving tilapia biosecurity through a value chain approach

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 15, Issue S1, Page 57-91, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Tilapia aquaculture is a major source of animal protein, with global production reaching over 6 million tonnes in 2020. The rapid growth of the tilapia sector has led to a number of emerging disease threats and subsequent production losses. Risk analysis can provide a targeted approach for improving biosecurity in the tilapia sector.

Seasonality of salmonid parasites from flow‐through aquaculture in northern Germany: Emphasis on pathogenicity of Diplostomum spp. metacercaria

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 1-11, February 2022., 2022
Abstract The aim of the present study was to identify the parasite fauna of cultured rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) and Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus (L.)) from a flow‐through aquaculture system at Lake Tollense in northern Germany. The fish were sampled during different seasons in 2018 from an open freshwater raceway. For rainbow

Eye fluke effects on Danish freshwater fish: Field and experimental investigations

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 1785-1798, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Eye flukes in fish are common in freshwater lakes. Fish become infected by the penetration of cercariae released from freshwater snails, and high infection pressures may be associated with mortalities in a Danish lake. Examination of two other freshwater lakes, combined with laboratory study, supported the notion. We investigated 77 freshwater

Encapsulation of Anguillicola crassus reduces the abundance of adult parasite stages in the European eel (Anguilla anguilla)

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 771-782, June 2021., 2021
Abstract Encapsulation of the parasitic nematode Anguillicola crassus Kuwahara, Niimi & Hagaki is commonly observed in its native host, the Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica Temminck & Schlegel). Encapsulation has also been described in a novel host, the European eel (A. anguilla L.), and there is evidence that encapsulation frequency has increased since
