TL;DR: Although EHP could be detected from slow-growing as well as WFS-affected animals, the present study could not conclusively elucidate the association of EHP with these clinical signs through experimental infection trials.

TL;DR: Serum cytokine profiles showed significantly (P<0.01) higher amount of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β,IL-6 and mouse KC) in the infected mice when compared to control mice.

TL;DR: While it is difficult to point out the exact etiological agent as the cause of mortality, strict biosecurity measures are advisable for the continuity of L. vannamei culture in India.

TL;DR: It could be inferred that inulin supplementation is beneficial in the diet of Asian seabass and supplementation at 15 g kg −1 level is optimal for enhancing growth.

TL;DR: Though the study could not identify any specific known aetiological agent associated with RMS affected shrimp, failure to reproduce the syndrome by bioassay, recovery of affected shrimp under the optimal environmental conditions and the positive correlation with critical environmental parameters and the stocking densities to mortality rates clearly suggest RMS to be a pond ecosystem or pond management associated syndrome rather than infectious in nature.
