Effect of organic fertilization on the occurrence of Nodularia spumigena blooms in Penaeus vannamei shrimp ponds under a biofloc system

Blooms of potentially toxic cyanobacteria cause high losses in aquaculture worldwide. The species Nodularia spumigena produces toxin capable of significantly affecting feeding, growth rates, and mortality of shrimp in marine farms. As a result, methods for controlling cyanobacterial blooms can increase the production s...
