Insights into molecular aspects of pathogenesis and disease management in acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND): An updated review

Optimized swarming motility assay to identify anti-virulence products against Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a pathogen of farmed shrimp

“…The major bacterial diseases in P. vannamei shrimp are caused by pathogenic Vibrio, the most important of which is acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), with total losses estimated at 43 billion [6] . AHPND is caused by several Vibrio species, but mainly by the pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus [ 7 , 8 , 9 ].…”

ZntA maintains zinc and cadmium homeostasis and promotes oxidative stress resistance and virulence in Vibrio parahaemolyticus

“… 12 , 13 Moreover, it is a major causative agent of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) in shrimp, leading to a mortality rate of up to 100% within 30–35 days of stocking. 14 , 15 Since the first outbreak in China in 2009, AHPND outbreaks have been documented from various regions including Thailand, Mexico, South American, the USA, South Korea, and Japan. 15 AHPND was estimated to cause collective losses over USD 43 billion across Asia (China, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia) and in Mexico.…”
