Evaluation of a reliable non-invasive molecular test for the diagnosis of the causative agent of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease of shrimp

Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND, also known as early mortality syndrome, EMS) has caused substantial mortality, up to 100%, in populations of penaeid shrimp cultured in SE Asia and in Latin America.
