A potential prokaryotic and microsporidian pathobiome that may cause shrimp white feces syndrome (WFS)

Abstract: White feces syndrome (WFS) in shrimp cultivation ponds is characterized by the occurrence of shrimp with abnormal, white intestines (midguts) combined with large floating mats of white, shrimp fecal strings. The etiology for WFS is complex, similar to diarrhea in humans. EHP-WFS is a type of WFS characterized by massive quantities of spores from the microsporidian parasite Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) together with mixed, unidentified bacteria in the shrimp hepatopancreas, midgut and fecal strings.
