Abstract The emergence of infectious agents poses a continual economic and environmental challenge to aquaculture production, yet the diversity, abundance, and epidemiology of aquatic viruses are poorly characterised. In this study, we applied salmon host transcriptional biomarkers to identify and ...
Seaweeds (marine macroalgae) are autotrophic organisms capable of producing many compounds of interest. For a long time, seaweeds have been seen as a great nutritional resource, primarily in Asian countries to later gain importance in Europe and South America, as well as in North America and Australia. ...
Aquaculture is a technique to produce food that is under debate, due to its possible consequences for altering the economy, traditional fishing included, or the environment, even with doubts about the health of consumers. This document studies its social acceptance from the point of view of carrying ...
Facing antibiotic resistance has provoked a continuously growing focus on phage therapy. Although the greatest emphasis has always been placed on phage treatment in humans, behind phage application lies a complex approach that can be usefully adopted by the food industry, from hatcheries and croplands ...
The consumption of contaminated shellfish with marine toxins causes adverse socioeconomical, environmental and health impacts. The marine toxin okadaic acid (OA) provokes diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) syndrome characterized by severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Therefore, there is increasing interest ...
Aquaponics is a merging of agriculture and aquaculture culture systems that may provide a solution to overcome land and water limitations and food security. Water quality in fishponds is a determining factor in aquaculture and is still much needed to be studied extensively. However, evaluating the quality ...
Indonesia has a vast ocean with an abundance of fishes with its natural environments. Those abundances have to be conserved to prevent further destruction of the environment, which can result in the extinction of the surrounding living things. The government had deployed a vessel monitoring system, ...
Aiming at the problems of low accuracy, slow convergence and poor robustness of traditional neural network water quality prediction method, a dissolved oxygen content prediction model based on combining algorithm of improved Fruit fly optimization algorithm and BP neural network (IFOABP) is proposed. ...
In this paper, we clarify the characteristics of sub-Giga band radio wave propagation at sea for the application of LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) radio in aquaculture. A particular feature of this scenario is high-sensitivity low power communication system (RSSI: received signal strength indicator-142 ...
Simple Summary The European Union Water Framework Directive has set the objective to develop a good status for water bodies and showed the importance of promoting the sustainable use of water resources in inland anthropic activities, such as freshwater aquaculture, performed in strict accordance with ...
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized using the colloidal co-precipitation method and further coated with silica using the Stöber process. These were functionalized with carboxylic and amine functionalities for further covalent immobilization of antibodies on these MNPs. The procedure for covalent ...
Many subclades within the large North American freshwater fish genus Etheostoma (Percidae) show brilliant male nuptial coloration during the spring spawning season. Traditionally, perceived differences in color were often used to diagnose closely related species. More recently, perceived differences ...
Plant-pathogen interactions follow spatial and temporal developmental dynamics where gene expression in pathogen and host undergo crucial changes. Therefore, it is of great interest to detect, quantify and localise where and when key genes are active to understand these processes. Many pathosystems ...
The conservation status of several pelagic shark species is considered vulnerable with declining populations, yet data on shark fishing mortality remain limited for large ocean regions. Pelagic sharks are increasingly retained by mixed-species fisheries, or are discarded and not reported by selective ...
Abstract Changes in the physical environment along the Antarctic Peninsula have been among the most rapid anywhere on the planet. In concert with environmental change, the potential for direct human disturbance resulting from tourism, scientific programs, and commercial fisheries continues to rise ...
Here, 70 potential Vibrio pathogens belonging to nine species, dominated by Vibrio harveyi, were isolated and identified from diseased aquacultured marine fish in South China. Subsequently, the prevalence of 11 virulence genes and the resistance to 15 antibiotics in these strains were determined. Most ...
A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is of paramount importance in facilitating smart Agricultural Internet of Things (Agri-IoT). It connects numerous sensor nodes or devices to develop a robust framework for efficient and seamless communication with improved throughput for intelligent networking. Such enhancement ...
Biofouling is a challenge for finfish farming as it can impact cage stability and fish health. Amongst others, current strategies against biofouling rely heavily on removal of biofouling using in-situ pressure cleaning of nets. The cleaning waste is released into the water where it can impact the health ...
Seafood products are important sources of protein and components of a healthy and sustainable diet. Understanding consumers’ preferences for fish products is crucial for increasing fish consumption. This article reports the consumer preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for different fish species ...
Plastics are widely used due to their excellent properties, inexpensiveness and versatility leading to an exponential consumption growth during the last decades. However, most plastic does not biodegrade in any meaningful sense; it can exist for hundreds of years. Only a small percentage of plastic ...
