No full textNot AvailableDue to the challenges posed by the poor availability and germination of Flemingia spp. for lac insect cultivation, the Kerala Forest Research Institute in Thrissur experimented with the air layering method and stem cutting (Vegetative Propagation) to enhance the number of seedlings. The layering method was successful for all three treatments, although it is observed variations in the length of the roots. The plant treated with coco peat exhibited longer roots and a greater number of roots, followed by the plants treated with only soil and vermiculite. The stem cutting method (vegetative propagation) was also successful for both plants, suggesting that both techniques can be used as alternatives for cultivating lac insect host plants instead of relying on seed germination.Not Availabl

No full textNot AvailableEnvironment plays a crucial role in the antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Antimicrobials used across the sectors are directly or indirectly released into the environment. However, minimal focus was given on the one health basis. The assessment of the influence of the environment on advancement and transmission of insusceptibility to drugs is of paramount importance. The status of AMR across the segments of ecosystems, viz., terrestrial and aquatic (rivers, lake), etc., is extremely important. In this chapter, consolidated evidence is provided to understand the AMR across the ecosystems. Studies that estimated the burden of AMR by metagenomics were also given a special criterion for understanding the impact on other sectors.Not Availabl

No full textNot AvailableVibrios are the natural inhabitants of aquatic ecosystems and cause life threatening diseases such as cholera. Halophilic, Non cholera vibrios like Vibrio vulnificus are autochthonous to the estuaries. The bacterial blood poisoning (septicaemia), inflammation of the lining of the intestine (gastroenteritis), and wound infections are known illnesses that are caused mainly by V. vulnificus. This bacterium is a pathogen of opportunity, specifically affecting immunocompromised and aged individuals when infected. In a situation, where antimicrobial resistance itself becomes a threat to the humankind, opportunistic bacteria such as Vibrio vulnificus acquiring resistance to the antibiotics to which they are treated is an alarming situation. Meticulous antimicrobial profiling is necessary to reduce mortality because experimenting with different antibiotics may lead to permanent tangible and intangible losses. This chapter dealt on Vibrio vulnificus characteristics as pathogen in seafood and aquaculture, development of antibiotic resistance as reported, reason for antibiotic resistance, prevention methods and alternate treatment methods.Not Availabl
