Abstract

The advancement of technology, globalization of trade, massive demand, and cost-effective practices has fuelled the fast expansion of the aquaculture industry in recent time. Viral infections, on the contrary, limit aquaculture production, affecting the global economic progression and prosperity. Disease managements accomplished through conventional methods, synthetic chemicals, or antibiotics were found to have detrimental effects on the environment. Again, the incidents of viral infection may become epizootics if fish healthcare professionals may not have an effective hazard management mechanism in place. The chief approach to preventing viral epidemics is to stop the infection from spreading. Under such circumstances, the probiotics appear as the most promising approach to the prevention of viral infections and pathogenicity. Bacterial probiotics like Pediococcus acidilactici, Pseudomonas sp., Vibrio sp., Bacillus sp., Aeromonas sp., Pseudoalteromonas sp., Alteromonas sp., Lactobacillus casei, Lactococcus lactis, and Lactobacillus plantarum, and algal paraprobiotics (ghost probiotic) like Nannochloropsis gaditana are found to be effective in controlling viral pathogens allied with aquaculture. The study revealed the conventional strategies available in aquaculture against viruses. The study also provides a conception of probiotics, their mode of application, and approaching standpoints related to the remediation of viral diseases in aquaculture.
