Journal ArticleDOI
A brackishwater isolate of Pseudomonas PS-102, a potential antagonistic bacterium against pathogenic vibrios in penaeid and non-penaeid rearing systems
K. K. Vijayan,I. S. Bright Singh,N. S. Jayaprakash,Shankar Vinayakarao Alavandi,S. Somnath Pai,R. Preetha,J.J.S. Rajan,T.C. Santiago +7 more
TL;DR: The results of this study indicated that the organism Pseudomonas sp PS 102 could be employed as a potential probiont in shrimp and prawn aquaculture systems for management and control of bacterial infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) in farmed Penaeus (Litopenaeus) vannamei in India
K.V. Rajendran,Saloni Shivam,P. Ezhil Praveena,J.J.S. Rajan,T. Sathish Kumar,Satheesha Avunje,V. Jagadeesan,S.V.A.N.V. Prasad Babu,Ashish Pande,A. Navaneeth Krishnan,Shankar Vinayakarao Alavandi,Koyadan Kizhakedath Vijayan +11 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polychaete worms--a vector for white spot syndrome virus (WSSV).
Koyadan Kizhakedath Vijayan,V. Stalin Raj,C.P. Balasubramanian,Shankar Vinayakarao Alavandi,V Thillai Sekhar,T.C. Santiago +5 more
TL;DR: Though the present study indicates only a low level infectivity in wild polychaetes, laboratory experiments clearly indicated the possibility of WSSV transfer from the live feed to shrimp broodstock, suggesting that polychaete worms could play a role in the epizootiology of W SSV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Pseudomonas sp. PM 11 and Vibrio fluvialis PM 17 on immune indices of tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon.
Shankar Vinayakarao Alavandi,Koyadan Kizhakedath Vijayan,T.C. Santiago,M. Poornima,K. P. Jithendran,S.A. Ali,J.J.S. Rajan +6 more
TL;DR: The results of the study suggest that, new protocols have to be evolved for selection of microbe(s) as putative probiotics and that, detailed understanding of proven probiotics, employed presently on empirical basis may provide a clue on the selection procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of luminescent Vibrio harveyi and their bacteriophages in a commercial shrimp hatchery in South India
B. Chrisolite,S. Thiyagarajan,Shankar Vinayakarao Alavandi,E.C. Abhilash,N. Kalaimani,Koyadan Kizhakedath Vijayan,T.C. Santiago +6 more
TL;DR: The study has indicated that the brooders, maturation and spawning facilities in the shrimp hatchery are the main source of luminescent V. harveyi and their bacteriophages and that occurrence of LB even in low counts during early larval stages can possibly lead to development of LB disease despite presence of bacteriaphages in the larval rearing tanks.
