The rice-field eel (Monopterus albus) is an important economic aquaculture species in China. Aeromonas veronii is one of the most common pathogens, which has a high infection and mortality rate in rice-field eel culture. In this study, a strain of A. veronii (AV-MA), isolated from the intestine of a diseased rice-field eel, was labelled with green fluorescent protein (GFP) using mini-Tn7-based systems. The growth curve and vir...

Background: Aquaculture, a vital component of global food security, faces sustainability challenges due to intensive farming practices, including water pollution, disease outbreaks, and antibiotic overuse. Probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics have emerged as eco-friendly alternatives to antibiotics. However, research results remain heterogeneous across aquatic species and intervention strategies. Methods: Following PRISMA 20...
