Effect of probiotic Pediococcus acidilactici on growth, reproductive and bacterial count of marine rotifer Brachionus plicatilis

International Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2019
This study investigated the effects of different concentrations of probiotic Pediococcus acidilactici on the total number, specific growth rate, attached egg number and microbial count (lactic acid and total aerobic bacteria) in culture water and body of

L-carnitine can improve the population growth and anti-stress ability of rotifer (Brachionus rotundiformis) under ammonia stress

Aquaculture Reports, 2021
Rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis is the first live food for larval fish that can generally be plagued by ammonia (AC) in intensive culture systems. Ammonia accumulates enough to cause rotifer death.

Locomotory behaviour of euryhaline rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis: The potential influence of probiotics on swimming pattern and speed

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, 2023
We evaluated the effect of probiotics on the growth and culture condition of rotifer in medium‐sized culture tanks. The influence of probiotics on the changes in swimming patterns, velocity and sinuosity indices of rotifer was also examined. The rotifers

Report of rotifer-ciliate-gastropod hyperepibiosis found on snail (Mollusca) from Goa, India

Acta Biologica, 2021
Here we report a rotifer-ciliate-gastropod hyperepibiosis in freshwater canal, Goa, India. A rotifer Philodina cf. megalotrocha Ehrenberg, 1832 was found attached on the colony of Epistylis plicatilis Ehrenberg, 1838 which was epibiont on gastropod ...
