    Abstract

    The earliest record of aquaculture occurred in China, where artificial hatching and rearing of carp (Cyprinus carpio) dated back to 2000 BC. Since that time, man has extensively cultured species such as the milkfish (Chanos chanos), tilapia (Oreochromis mossambica), yellow tail (Seriola quinquiradiata) rainbow trout, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and many other salmonid species. Aquaculture was first carried out in Europe by the Romans with oysters and now the culture of shellfish such as clams, oysters and prawns is common. All the culturable species are subjected to infectious diseases and their impact on the economic viability of the aquaculture industry has become increasingly important. According to Meyer <1991), disease problems constitute the largest single cause of economic losses in aquaculture'. Now as the natural fisheries provided by the open seas have declined and the world population has grown, aquaculture products are in great demand.
