Comparative study on growth and vibrio variation between normal and stunted growth in pond- cultured whiteleg shrimp, litopenaeus vannamei

The occurrence of stunted growth in Litopenaues vannamei culture causing large size variation in harvested shrimps which may lead to huge profit loss. Despite causing concerns to farmers, detailed information of stunted growth in L. vannamei in relationship to its growth and Vibrio composition was l...

Despite causing concerns to farmers, detailed information of stunted growth in L. vannamei in relationship to its growth and Vibrio composition was limited. Normal and stunted growth shrimp were collected from shrimp ponds in Tuaran, Malaysia.
