proportions in black tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon) hatcheries in Panay Island …

Luminous bacterial shrimp diseases have recently become a major problem in shrimp
hatcheries in Indonesia and other Asian countries. Luminous bacteria were isolated from …

Severe mortalities due to luminescent vibrios occurred in pond-cultured Penaeus monodon
juveniles particularly in the first 45 days of culture. Luminescent vibriosis epizootics led to …

Luminescent Vibrio harveyi is a natural microflora of marine and coastal water bodies and is

The distribution and species composition of luminous bacteria in commercial penaeid
shrimp hatcheries were studied. Luminous bacteria were found in the larval rearing tanks in …

Quantification and characterization of bacterial flora in the hepatopancreas (hp) of pond-
reared Penaeus monodon juveniles affected with luminous bacteria were conducted in 1994 …

From healthy and diseased penaeid shrimp from Asia and the Americas, 25 luminous and 2
