A preliminary investigation into the effects of a sex-reversal androgen, methyltestosterone, on food utilization and growth of Sarotherodon niloticus (L) fry [PDF]
, 1986 Three groups of Sarotherodon niloticus fry were fed for 8 weeks on diets either treated with 17- & methyltestosterone (MT), alcohol (CA), or untreated (CO). Growth rate and food utilization in the different groups were compared. Results indicate that the

Microbial Flora of Pond-Reared Tilapia (Tilapia aurea) Held on Ice
Journal of Food Protection, 1984 Microbiological and chemical characteristics for tilapia reared in 0.25-acre artificial ponds were investigated. At time of harvest, average bacterial count of the pond-reared fish was 7.3 × 102 per cm2 while pond water contained 2.2 × 104 organisms per ml.

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The purpose of this research was to assess the effectiveness of a combination of monoterpenes (thymol and carvacrol) in treating juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) infected with Edwardsiella tarda as a potential substitute for the antibiotic oxytetracycline. The study utilised different concentrations of the monoterpenes blend (MTs):

Comparative Genomics of Lactococcus spp. From Global Aquaculture Outbreaks Reveals Virulence Determinants, Antibiotic Resistance, and Phage Defence Mechanisms. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenLactococcus petauri predominated in isolates from outbreaks of lactococcosis, suggesting a shift in disease aetiology. Genomic analysis revealed diverse virulence factors, prophage and resistance genes, while antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed uniform resistance to common antibiotics found in farming systems, emphasising the need for ...

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lactococcus garvieae, Lactococcus petauri and Lactococcus formosensis are etiological agents of piscine lactococcosis, a disease reported in Italy since the early 1990s and linked to significant aquaculture losses. To the best of our knowledge, this study reports the first detection of L. formosensis subsp. formosensis in farmed rainbow trout (
