The rapid increase in aquaculture activities raises the quantum of disease incidences globally.
The diseases caused by infectious agents are considered to be most significant as many of them do not cause acute disease but lead to chronic disease and cause persistent economic loss to aquaculture.
Parasites are one of the major infectious disease agents that cause economic loss to aquaculture. Hence it is necessary to understand the major parasitic prevalence, their identification, and prevention and control measures.
