Abstract
This study estimated the heritability of ammonia tolerance in Pacific white juveniles. Results suggest that rapid genetic gains could be obtained. criteria designed to establish a causative relationship between a microbe and a disease], we con�rmed that a novel V. parahaemolyticus (Vp-JS20200428004-2) was the causative agent associated with the emerging TPD that affected shrimp farming in China in 2020. The new pathogen shows high virulence to shrimp PLs and can cause acute and severe histopathological changes in the hepatopancreas and midgut. The risk of epidemic disease and PL losses caused by this new pathogen deserves further attention.
