Cyprinids rank as one of the most commercially important groups of
freshwater fishes and are exploited for many purposes; as a human
food source, especially in Europe and Asia; as sport fish; and as
ornamental fish for ponds and aquaria. Certain species are also
cultured as bait fish and several of the small cyprinids such as
the zebra fish have become internationally accepted laboratory
models for toxicology testing and molecular research. A thorough
understanding of cyprinid health and diseases is fundamental to the
successful management and exploitation of these fishes for
freshwater fisheries, pisciculture and ornamental productions.
This practical guide to disease diagnosis, prevention and
control includes numerous colour plates and covers a comprehensive
array of diseases - infectious and non-infectious - of cultivated
and wild cyprinids.
