Due to the global demand for animal protein for human nutrition, aquaculture has become increasingly important in global food production, playing a crucial role in meeting the growing demand for animal protein needs. However, the rapid growth and expansion of aquaculture with the intensification of production systems has led to an increase in the incidence and spread of parasitic and infection diseases. Thereby new challenges and opportunities emerge to the control of pathogens, which have become essential in reducing negative impacts on large-scale production and supply. In this context, new approaches and technological strategies for the control of diseases in aquaculture are essential. This Research Topic aims to provide an overview of the current research and advances in all aspects of marine and freshwater pathogens treatments and management of all cultured organisms. Original research or review articles are welcomed and potential topics include but are not limited to: developments in the treatment of pathogens in both freshwater and marine organisms, drug delivery systems, eco-friendly and natural therapeutics strategies to the control and treatment of diseases, host-pathogen interaction and immunology response, descriptions on new pathogens and in both wild and cultivated fish.
The incidence and spread of parasitic and infection diseases caused serious economic losses to aquaculture around the world.
