Abstract
The extensive use of antimicrobial agents in shrimp aquaculture has led to the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, which poses a huge threat to environmental and human health. Therefore, an eco-friendly and economic alternative treatment strategy has been devised these days, which involves the microbiome-based treatment. The role of gut microbiota in regulating the health, growth, and survival of aquaculture species has been a subject of interest in the research community. Researchers have found various biological agents such as probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics capable of manipulating microbiome to control diseases and improve survival of shrimp. Moreover, the use of biofloc technology and recirculating aquaculture systems aids in sustainable aquaculture. This chapter highlights the importance of microbiome-based and environment friendly treatment strategies for the prevention and control of disease outbreaks in shrimp aquaculture.
