The prevalence of Perkinsus sp. in cultured Pacific oysters and the infection intensity during an annual culture cycle using two detection methods were studied in Sinaloa, Mexico. Pathogen prevalence varied depending on the temperature and the age of the culture.
Health & Welfare
With major support from the government, a campaign has been launched to promote consumption of Mexico’s fishery and aquaculture products. The objective is to increase per capita seafood consumption to 12 kg by 2018.
Responsibility
Totoaba, a large, fast-growing fish of the Gulf of California, became endangered due to overfishing. The Mexican government therefore created an aquaculture program in Baja California to support restocking for the recovery of wild totoaba stocks.
