Description Mariculture is the fastest growing subsector of aquaculture
in India, and it provides a significant contribution to
animal production and is of economic importance.
Technology of marine cage culture in India is pioneered
by ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute for
providing an additional livelihood for the upliftment of
economic status of coastal communities, and this transfer
of technology was successfully implemented throughout
coastal India. Indian Pompano, Trachinotus mookalee is the
most potential species for marine cage farming in India.
Management of water quality and fish health in culture
systems is a great challenge in mariculture. Emergence
of environmental issues and disease occurrence becomes
inevitable due to the increasing demand for intensification
and commercialization in mariculture production. In order
to manage the culture systems for attaining sustainable
production, application of probiotics is the best tool, to
achieve better growth rate, survival and disease resistance
of fish. Marine microorganisms are identified as potential
source of enzymes which may enhance host digestion since
they have greater capacity of adhesion to gastrointestinal
mucus and tissues. There are several reports of research
works on the application of probiotics in aquaculture
though very few studies relate its usage in finfish culture.
Several commercial probiotic bacteria are being used in
aquaculture industry, especially in shrimp aquaculture,
but the role of its application in marine finfish culture
needs to be established. Hence, the present study was
undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of marine probiotic
consortium (MPC) (developed in laboratory) on survival
and growth of Trachinotus mookalee.
