Natural Co‐Infection With Streptococcus agalactiae and Klebsiella pneumoniae in Cultured Nile Tilapia: Assessing Plant‐Based Therapeutics as Sustainable Alternatives to Antibiotics

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), a key species in global freshwater aquaculture and a major contributor to Bangladesh's fish production, is increasingly affected by bacterial infections that compromise farm productivity. This study investigated natural co‐infection of bacterial pathogens in diseased tilapia and assessed the effectiveness ...

Assessing the Apparent Prevalence, Pathology and Molecular Detection of Aphanomyces invadans in Native Fish Species of the Sylhet Region, Bangladesh

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The primary objective of this study was to investigate the presence of Aphanomyces invadans and its association with Aeromonas hydrophila in naturally infected fish from two wetlands (beels) in the Sylhet, Bangladesh. Over a 6‐month period (October 2020 to March 2021), a total of 396 fish were examined from Singari beel, of which 90 were found
