Virulence and Molecular Typing of Vibrio harveyi Strains Isolated from Cultured Dentex, Gilthead Sea Bream and European Sea Bass
2003
Vibrio harveyi was isolated from internal organs or ulcers of diseased and apparently healthy gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) and European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) cultured in several fish farms located on the Spanish Mediterranean coast. The prevalence of the bacterium was significantly higher in European sea bass than in gilthead sea bream, and was closely related to the season in both fish species, occurring almost exclusively on warm months (June to November). After phenotypic characterization, a selection of forty five isolates from gilthead sea bream, sea bass, and several isolates previously obtained from common dentex (Dentex dentex) of the same area, were molecularly type…
Parasites of Diplodus puntazzo in Western Mediterranean: Morphological, developmental and host-parasite relationships of monogeneans
2014
En España la acuicultura ha experimentado un gran crecimiento durante el pasado siglo, sin embargo, durante los últimos años se ha producido una disminución en la producción de las especies de cultivo más importantes, como la dorada, la lubina y el rodaballo (APROMAR, 2011). Esta situación ha supuesto la primera reducción en la producción de los últimos 25 años. Por este motivo, los productores españoles apuestan por la recuperación de la productividad y el aumento de la competitividad en el mercado y, para poder llevar a cabo estas mejoras, uno de los objetivos marcados es diversificar las especies cultivadas (APROMAR, 2011). En el Mediterráneo español, una de las especies candidatas para …
Carriage of potentially fish-pathogenic bacteria in Sparus aurata cultured in Mediterranean fish farms.
2003
A bacteriological survey of gilthead sea bream Sparus aurata from different fish farms and culture systems on the Spanish Mediterranean coast was conducted. Three different studies were performed. Study A included hatchery-reared larvae; Study B, periodic examination of randomly sampled growing fish; and Study C, growing fish sampled only during mortality/morbidity events. In Studies B and C, sea cages, earth ponds and indoor tanks were surveyed, and in both cases diseased (showing clinical signs) and non-diseased fish were included. In Study A, a shift from Vibrio spp. (30 d after hatching) to oxidative species (60 d after hatching) was detected, and no mortality events were registered. Th…
