From 1992 onwards, outbreaks of a previously unknown illness have been reported in Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer) kept in maricultures in Southeast Asia. The most striking symptom of this emerging disease is the loss of scales. It was referred to as scale drop syndrome, but the etiology remained enigmatic. By using a next-generation virus discovery technique, VIDISCA-454, sequences of an unkn...

The infection dynamics and distribution of the ectoparasitic fish monogenean Neobenedenia sp. (Monogenea: Capsalidae) throughout its development was examined on barramundi, Lates calcarifer (Bloch) (Latidae), by labelling transparent, ciliated larvae (oncomiracidia) with a fluorescent dye. Replicate fish were each exposed to approximately 50 fluorescent oncomiracidia and then examined for paras...

This study aimed to develop a suitable feeding program for the Asian sea bass, lates calcarifer fingerlings under supersaline condition by testing different feeding rates (FR) and feeding frequencies (FF). Three feeding rates namely; 1%, 2% and 4% and three feeding frequencies 1X, 2X and 4X were used in the study. Results showed that growth after 60 days parameters gave the highest values with ...
