White gut syndrome and Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) are significant health concerns in Litopenaeus vannamei shrimp farming.
•
White Gut Syndrome (WGS) affects shrimp, causing white fecal strings, slow growth, and reduced feed intake, often due to Vibrio bacteria and Gregarines protozoa. Additionally, Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) disrupts the hepatopancreas, leading to growth retardation and increased vulnerability to infections, making biosecurity and pond management essential for prevention.
