Fish Diseases and Disorders
Author: P. T. K. WooPublisher: CABI
ISBN: 184593217X
Category : Fishes
Languages : en
Pages : 803
Book Description
Fish is the principal source of protein for people in many parts of the world, particularly in developing countries. While most fish are caught from nature, aquaculture or fish farming is now making a significant contribution to total fish production. More intensive conditions of aquaculture often result in a higher incidence of fish diseases and disorders. As in the first edition, the focus of this second edition is on protozoan and metazoan parasites that cause disease in fish. Significant changes to this second edition include the addition of 3 new chapters and 4 of the original chapters have new authors.
Fish Diseases and Disorders: Non-infectious disorders
Author: John F. LeatherlandPublisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
This book follows on from the first volume, on protozoan and metazoan infections, of a three-volume series. It focuses largely on finfish and considers non-infectious disorder of development, growth and physiology of wild and captive species. Various sections address topics such as tumourigenesis, stress physiology and the effects of stressors on particular processes, and the effect of environmental factors (including toxic substances) on fish health. The economic implications of non-infectious disorders in intensive aquaculture are of particular importance, and a chapter is devoted specifically to this. The final chapter describes evaluation methods for the assessment of disorders at the individual, population and community level. The book is indispensable for zoologists, veterinary scientists and those concerned with fisheries and aquaculture.

Keys to the Cestode Parasites of Vertebrates
Author: L. F. KhalilPublisher: Cabi
ISBN: 9780851988795
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 824
Book Description
Most previous publications on the classification of tapeworms (cestodes) have been based on compilations from the literature and are now dated. Thus there is a real need for up-to-date keys based on the re-examination of specimens and on a re-evaluation of the characters employed in cestode taxonomy. This book fulfils this need and provides keys to enable specialists and non-specialists to identify cestodes to generic level. The keys are dichotomous and are based largely on morphological characters. The authors have re-examined many specimens, including type specimens where possible. As a result, the keys reflect new ideas and have lead to reappraisals of cestode taxonomy, particularly at family and generic level, with many reallocations and synonymies. The authors include 19 international authorities from the UK, USA, Australia, Brazil, France, Norway, Italy, Switzerland, Poland, Bulgaria and the Ukraine. The book includes approximately 1,700 illustrations and is a standard work on tapeworm identification and will be indispensable for parasitologists.
Fish Diseases and Disorders

ISBN: 9789380090498
Category : Fishes
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
This book addresses infectious diseases of fish and their disorders that arise due to viruses, bacteria and fungi. The book is well written and contains updated information that reflects new developments in the field. This is a must reference/textbook for fish health specialists and veterinarians, microbiologists, zoologists and researchers and students in aquaculture. This book follows fish infectious and focus largely on non- infectious disorder of development, growth and physiology of wild and captive species. The economic implications of non-infectious disorders in intensive aquaculture are of particular importance. Focusing largely on fish, it covers development, growth and physiology of distinct species that includes genetic conditions, respiratory disorders, stress physiology, environmental factors and a new contribution on the relationship between welfare issues and disorders associated with intensive fish culture.
