Los vibrios son, sin duda, la causa principal de los brotes de enfermedades bacterianas en los camarones cultivados, pero a menudo se ignora el papel significativo de los factores estresantes.
Health & Welfare
Vibrios are undoubtedly the foremost cause of bacterial disease outbreaks in farmed shrimp, but the significant role of stressors is often ignored.

In a survey of Vibrio concentrations in white shrimp postlarvae at two inland farms, hatchery postlarvae were acclimated in water with salinity reduced from 30 and 5 ppt to 2 ppt at the farms. One farm stocked postlarvae in nursery ponds, and the other stocked directly into grow-out ponds.

Since Vibrio samples often degrade during transport, the authors analyzed nucleic acids (FTA) cards as a simplified, shelf-stable collection method for the preservation of genetic material from water samples.
