Book Hero thinking about your next read

Diseases are a major threat to both wild and farmed fish. Disease-related reduction of reproduction and/or age-specific survival can strongly affect wild stocks as it has been demonstrated for several species in distinct geographical locations. This book is intended for fish farmers, researchers and graduate students interested in fish diseases.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Diseases are a major threat to both wild and farmed fish. Pathogen-induced alterations in viability and growth of wild fish stocks can have implications on diversity and ecological status of aquatic ecosystems, as fish are main components of aquatic communities. They can directly affect the exploitation of wild and farmed fish as a protein source for human consumption.

Fish diseases can be a major factor influencing the abundance and distribution of wild fish. Disease-related reduction of reproduction and/or age-specific survival can strongly affect wild stocks, as it has been demonstrated for several species in distinct geographical locations.

Fish Diseases (2 Vols.) will be useful for fish farmers, managers, researchers, and graduate students interested in fish diseases.
