Yet the expansion is marred by continued problems of disease. New pathogens emerge, and others become associated with new conditions. Some of these pathogens become well established, and develop into major killers of aquatic species.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e Diagnosis and Control of Diseases of Fish and Shellfish\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the diagnosis and control of diseases of fish and shellfish, notably those affecting aquaculture. Divided into 12 chapters, the book discusses the range of bacterial, viral and parasitic pathogens, their trends, emerging problems, and the relative significance to aquaculture. Developments in diagnostics and disease management, including the widespread use of serological and molecular methods, are presented. Application\/dose and mode of action of prebiotics, probiotics and medicinal plant products used to control disease are examined, as well as the management and hygiene precautions that can be taken to prevent\/control the spread of disease.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book will be a valuable resource for researchers, students, diagnosticians, veterinarians, fish pathologists and microbiologists concerned with the management of diseases of fish and shellfish. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Contributors xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction 1\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eBrian Austin and Aweeda Newaj-Fyzul\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Bacterial Diagnosis and Control in Fish and Shellfish 5\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eMags Crumlish\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBacterial Infections in Aquaculture 5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBacterial Disease Diagnostics and Control of Infections 6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eModern Approaches in Bacterial Diagnostics 9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eControl Strategies Against Bacterial Diseases 10\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmerging Bacterial Diseases 11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eClimate Change and Aquatic Bacterial Disease 12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePolymicrobial and Concurrent Infections 13\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublic Health and Aquaculture 13\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion 14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Complexities of Diagnostics of Viruses Affecting Farmed Aquatic Species 19\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eManfred Weidmann\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Parasitic Diseases in Aquaculture: Their Biology, Diagnosis and Control 37\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eGiuseppe Paladini, Matt Longshaw, Andrea Gustinelli, and Andrew P.

Yet the expansion is marred by continued problems of disease. New pathogens emerge, and others become associated with new conditions. Some of these pathogens become well established, and develop into major killers of aquatic species.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e Diagnosis and Control of Diseases of Fish and Shellfish\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the diagnosis and control of diseases of fish and shellfish, notably those affecting aquaculture. Divided into 12 chapters, the book discusses the range of bacterial, viral and parasitic pathogens, their trends, emerging problems, and the relative significance to aquaculture. Developments in diagnostics and disease management, including the widespread use of serological and molecular methods, are presented. Application\/dose and mode of action of prebiotics, probiotics and medicinal plant products used to control disease are examined, as well as the management and hygiene precautions that can be taken to prevent\/control the spread of disease.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book will be a valuable resource for researchers, students, diagnosticians, veterinarians, fish pathologists and microbiologists concerned with the management of diseases of fish and shellfish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989057683685,"sku":"NP9781119152101","price":184.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781119152101.jpg?v=1761782619","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/diagnosis-and-control-of-diseases-of-fish-and-shellfish-isbn-9781119152101","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
