Effects Of Environmental Factors On Vibriosis In Seabass (Lates Calcarifer Bloch) At A Floating Cage Culture Farm.

The present study indicates that the evolution of intensive marine cage culture farms in Malaysia can be a potential risk for outbreaks of vibriosis under unfavourable environmental conditions . The cage culture farm harboured significantly higher numbers of bacteria in the sediment and underly...

description The present study indicates that the evolution of intensive marine cage culture farms in Malaysia can be a potential risk for outbreaks of vibriosis under unfavourable environmental conditions .
