Strategies for Prevention and Control of Vibriosis in Asian Fish Culture

Abstract

It is estimated that vibriosis account for about half of the economic losses in Asian fish culture. Consequently, the prevention and control of vibriosis is one of the priority research topics in the field of Asian fish culture disease. Relevant measures have been proposed to control some Vibrios that pose a threat to Asian fish culture, but there are currently only a few effective vaccines available to combat these Vibrios. The purpose of our review is to sum up the main prevention methods and the latest control strategies of seven Vibrio species that cause great harm to Asian aquaculture, including Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio vulnificus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio mimicus, Vibrio anguillarum, Vibrio alginolyticus and Vibrio cholerae. Strategies such as antibiotics, probiotics, bacteriophages, antimicrobials from plants and other natural sources, as well as vaccines, are compared and discussed here. We expect this review will provide some new views and recommendations for the future better prevention and control of vibriosis in Asian fish culture.

Disrupting quorum sensing as a strategy to inhibit bacterial virulence in human, animal, and plant pathogens

“…Many potential vaccines have been developed in recent years against different Vibrio sp. but their use has thus far been limited to laboratories (Xu et al 2022 ). To study the potential of QQ and particularly that of lactonases as a reliable strategy to limit antibiotic use against vibriosis, in vivo studies need to be performed (Tinh et al 2007 , Pande et al 2013 , Noor et al 2019 ).…”

Comparative analysis of the structural and compositional change of spotted sea bass (Lateolabrax maculatus) gut microflora following Aeromonas veronii infection and the effects of Lactobacillus plantarum on these changes

“…66 Additionally, Vibrio, an opportunistic pathogen prevalent in freshwater and seawater, is a leading cause of Vibrio disease in aquaculture, 67 presenting symptoms such as fish septicemia and gastroenteritis, among other symptoms. 68 Acinetobacter, identified as a fish pathogen, poses a new threat to the aquaculture industry, leading to severe septicemia outbreaks in fish farms. 69 An imbalance in the intestinal microbial structure may have caused the increase in relative abundance of Vibrio and Acinetobacter.…”

Zoonosis and Vaccination for Fish Health Managment

“…Control and prevention strategies need to be designed for the appropriate treatment of infectious diseases in fish. One of the strategies for control and prevention of vibriosis in Asian fish culture by Xu et al [177] has been established. As per their review, even though applicable measures are identified, less numbers of vaccine are available to treat the diseases in fish.…”

“…Another major challenge in developing novel techniques is antibiotic resistance by microorganisms in fish. [32,177]. Different approaches such as nano-based drugs/vaccines or injectable vaccines or even probiotics or plant based medicines or edible vaccines are used to fish helath.…”
