cultured shrimp are getting affected by various disease.some of them are acute and some chronic. and the curing is very harder for a farmer so it is better suggested for safety precaution and proper hygiene while culturing.and the affected shrimp in cured with antibiotics is not accepted by anyone in the export business. so, let yourself find out the various shrimp disease their cure and proper management in this seminar.
Nutritional requirement of cultivable fin fish: larvae, juveniles and adultsDebiprasad1997
Fish is among the healthiest foods on the planet. It is loaded with important nutrients, such as protein and vitamin D. Fish is also the world's best source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are incredibly important for human body and brain.
Manufactured feeds are an important part of modern commercial aquaculture, providing the balanced nutrition needed by farmed fish.
In the development of modern aquaculture, starting in the 1970s, fishmeal and fish oil were key components of the feeds for these species. They are combined with other ingredients such as vegetable proteins, cereal grains, vitamins and minerals and formed into feed pellets.
The global supply of fish meal and fish oil is finite and fully utilized. Alternative or nontraditional feedstuffs may differ in terms of taste, smell, texture, and color, as well as nutrient composition, from the traditional feedstuffs, which are produced largely from the natural prey of the fish being raised. Alternative feedstuffs may also contain compounds and antinutritional factors that affect digestive or sensory physiology.
Another important area of fish nutrition for the next 20 years will be larval fish nutrition. Currently, the cost and difficulty of rearing a great number of species from the first feeding to the juvenile stage are the most severe bottlenecks to the development of aquaculture production of nontraditional species.

Shrimp farming in India, till 2009, was synonymous with the mono culture of tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon. About 1,90,000 ha brackishwater area have been developed for shrimp culture in the country spread over all the coastal states. Since 1995 culture of P monodon is affected by White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) and the development of shrimp farming has become stagnant.
Most of the Southeast Asian countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia were also culturing P. monodon and since 2001-02 onwards most of them have shifted to culture of exotic Whiteleg shrimp,Litopenaeus vannamei because of the availability of Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) and Specific Pathogen Resistant (SPR) broodstock. In India, Pilot-scale introduction of L.vannamei was initiated in 2003 and after a risk analysis study large-scale introduction has been permitted in 2009.
CAGE CULTURE OF FISH THEIR TREND,STATUS AND PRODUCTION Ashish sahu
Cage culture is an aquaculture production system where fish are held in Cage. Cage culture of fish utilizes existing water resources but encloses the fish in a cage which allows water to pass freely through the enclosures and the surrounding water body. Cages are used to culture several types of shell fish and finfish species in fresh, brackish and marine waters. Cages in freshwaters are used for food fish culture and for fry to fingerling rearing.
In 1950s modern cage culture began with the initiation of production of synthetic materials for cage construction. Fish production in cages became highly popular among the small or limited resource farmers who are looking for alternatives to traditional agricultural crops. The mesh size of the cage is kept smaller than the fish body. In India cage culture have been attempted first for Air breathing fish. Cage mesh netting made from synthetic material that can resist decomposition in water for a long period of time. Cage are used to culture several type of shell fish and fin fishes in fresh , brackish and marine water. Cage in fresh water are used for food fish culture and for fry to fingerling rearing. Cages are generally small, ranging in freshwater reservoirs from 1 square meter (m2) to 500 m2.

UNDERSTANDING THE INVOLVEMENT OF N-TERMINAL DOMAIN OF FATS IN INTERACTION WIT...Santosh Kumar Sahoo
Fat family members (FAT1, FAT2, FAT3, and FAT4) are human homologs of Drosophila Fat and are implicated in tumour suppression and planar cell polarity. Cellular homeostasis is largely maintained at the cellular level via transcription regulation, which can vary in response to physiological alterations. FAT atypical cadherin 1 (FAT1), which encodes a protocadherin, is one of the most frequently mutated genes in human cancer. FAT1 is thought to play a vital role in the maintenance of organ and cellular homeostasis, as well as activating a number of signalling pathways via protein-protein interactions, such as the Wnt/catenin, Hippo, and MAPK/ERK signaling pathways. Unregulated FAT1 expression can cause cancer and have a negative impact on prognosis. In this study, we focused on the structural and functional aspects of various domains and motifs of FAT1. Global bioinformatic databases resulted in streamlining a list of putative protein associates of FAT1. Since FAT1-mediated structural and functional alterations, as well as variations in FAT1 expression, contribute to disturbances in cellular homeostasis and result in patho-physiological disorders including cancer, we essentially focused on cancer-related genes functionally related to the FAT1. FAT1 is a huge protein composed of 4588 amino acid residues. By mutational analysis and further protein-protein docking studies using multiple bioinformatic tools it was confirmed that the C-terminus 4204-4214 and 4300-4400 amino acid residues are critical for interaction with cancer-related genes including Tumor necrosis factor, Myc proto-oncogene and Rela proto-oncogene. Interestingly, it was found that the small peptides corresponding to the C-terminus domain 4204-4214 and 4300-4400 of FAT1 effectively interact with tumor-suppressor genes. These evidences widens up the possibility of administering potential peptides when the FAT1 expression is inhibited. Our preliminary results will pave way forward in improving the prognosis and treatment of patients with cancer.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.

Introduction
Fish health management is a term used in
aquaculture to describe management
practices which are designed to prevent fish
disease. Once fish get sick it can be difficult
to salvage them.
Successful fish health management begins
with prevention of disease rather than
treatment. Prevention of fish disease is
accomplished through good water quality
management, nutrition and sanitation.
Without this foundation it is impossible to
prevent outbreaks of opportunistic diseases.
The first point to appreciate is that not all
diseases are infectious. For example, some are caused by toxins, others by
nutritional imbalances.
Infectious disease outbreaks in ponds depend on particular interactions between
the host, the pathogen and the pond environment.
Fish Health Management GOALS
4. 4 | P a g e
Principles of fish health management
• Maintain conditions which are designed to optimize growth,
feed conversion, reproduction and survival.
• Intensive aquaculture high numbers, close quarters, lots of food!!
(Optimal?)
• Enhance natural resistance
Well managed fish have healthy immune systems!
Healthy fish give rise to healthier offspring!
Types of fish diseases
There are two broad categories of disease that affect fish, infectious and non-
infectious diseases. Infectious diseases are caused by pathogenic organisms present in
the environment or carried by other fish. They are contagious diseases, and some type
of treatment may be necessary to control the disease outbreak. In contrast, non-
infectious diseases are caused by environmental problems, nutritional deficiencies, or
genetic anomalies; they are not contagious and usually cannot be cured by medications.
Infectious diseases
Infectious diseases are broadly categorized as parasitic, bacterial, viral, or fungal
diseases.
1. Parasitic diseases of fish are most frequently caused by small microscopic
organisms called protozoa which live in the aquatic environment. There are a variety of
protozoans which infest the gills and skin of fish causing irritation, weight loss, and
eventually death. Most protozoan infections are relatively easy to control using standard
fishery chemicals such as copper sulfate, formalin, or potassium permanganate.
Information on specific diseases and proper use of fishery chemicals is available from
your aquaculture extension specialist.
2. Bacterial diseases are often internal infections and require treatment with medicated
feeds containing antibiotics which are approved for use in fish by the Food and Drug
Administration. Typically fish infected with a bacterial disease will have haemorrhagic
spots or ulcers along the body wall and around the eyes and mouth. They may also have
an enlarged, fluid-filled abdomen, and protruding eyes. Bacterial diseases can also be

external, resulting in erosion of skin and ulceration. Columnaris is an example of an
external bacterial infection which may be caused by rough handling.
3. Viral diseases are impossible to distinguish from bacterial diseases without special
laboratory tests. They are difficult to diagnose and there are no specific medications
available to cure viral infections of fish. The most important viral infection which
affects fish production in the southeastern United States is Channel Catfish Virus
Disease, caused by a herpes virus. Consultation with an aquaculture or fish health
specialist is recommended if you suspect a bacterial or viral disease is killing your fish.
4. Fungal diseases are the fourth type of infectious disease. Fungal spores are common
in the aquatic environment, but do not usually cause disease in healthy fish. When fish
are infected with an external parasite, bacterial infection, or injured by handling, the
fungi can colonise damaged tissue on the exterior of the fish. These areas appear to
have a cottony growth or may appear as brown matted areas when the fish are removed
from the water. Formalin or potassium permanganate are effective against most fungal
infections. Since fungi are usually a secondary problem it is important to diagnose the
original problem and correct it as well.
Non-infectious diseases
Non-infectious diseases can be broadly categorized as environmental, nutritional, or
genetic.
Environmental diseases are the most important in commercial aquaculture.
Environmental diseases include low dissolved oxygen, high ammonia, high nitrite or
natural or man-made toxins in the aquatic environment. Proper techniques of managing
water quality will enable producers to prevent most environmental diseases.
Nutritional diseases can be very difficult to diagnose. A classic example of a
nutritional disease of catfish is "broken back disease," caused by vitamin C deficiency.
The lack of dietary vitamin C contributes to improper bone development, resulting in
deformation of the spinal column. Another important nutritional disease of catfish is
"no blood disease" which may be related to a folic acid deficiency. Affected fish
become anaemic and may die. The condition seems to disappear when the deficient feed
is discarded and a new feed provided.

Factors affecting fish health
Common symptoms of diseases
Unusual movements
Abnormal and unhealthy look
Discoloration
Film like covering on the skin
Swelling or spots on the skin
Pale gills, white and red spot on gills
Excess slime secretion
7. 7 | P a g e
General preventive measures
Increasing the internal resistance of fish is important in the prevention of
diseases.
Selection of healthy fish seeds.
Proper density and rational culture.
Proper pond management
Qualitatively uniform ratio and quality food
Good water quality
Prevention of fish body from injury
Proper Health Management through manipulating the
disease triangle

The significance of fish disease to aquaculture
Fish disease is a substantial source of monetary loss to aquaculturists. Production
costs are increased by fish disease outbreaks because of the investment lost in dead fish,
cost of treatment, and decreased growth during convalescence. In nature we are less
aware of fish disease problems because sick animals are quickly removed from the
population by predators. In addition, fish are much less crowded in natural systems than
in captivity. Parasites and bacteria may be of minimal significance under natural
conditions, but can cause substantial problems when animals are crowded and stressed
under culture conditions.
Conclusion
Fish disease outbreaks are often complex, involving both infectious and non-
infectious processes.
Appropriate therapy often involves medication and changes in husbandry
practices. Assistance from UF/IFAS aquaculture extension specialists is available
to help you to manage disease outbreaks and develop management programs to
prevent them.
A list of public laboratories available to assist with diagnoses of fish disease is
provided for your convenience at the end of this publication.
There are many private veterinarians willing to see fish or aquaculture species in
their practice.
