AbstractThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between seasonal variations, water parameters and the prevalence of Vibriosis in Gilthead seabream. A total of 160 Gilthead seabream fish were sampled over the course of 1 year from private earthen pond farms in the Suez Canal area and examined for abnormalities and internal lesions. Vibrio alginolyticus, the causative agent of Vibriosis, was isolated and characterized from the sampled Gilthead seabream fish. The study revealed a significant correlation between different seasons and the prevalence of V. alginolyticus, with lower occurrence during autumn. Analysis of water parameters showed that toxic ammonia concentration was not effective in distinguishing between positive and negative cases of V. alginolyticus. Dissolved oxygen showed weak predictive ability for the occurrence of V. alginolyticus, while temperature demonstrated moderate potential as a predictor of its prevalence. pH values, organic matter concentrations and salinity showed no significant association with the occurrence of V. alginolyticus. Experimental challenges highlighted the vulnerability of Gilthead seabream to V. alginolyticus and emphasized the impact of environmental factors, such as pH and toxic ammonia, on their mortality and survival. The study emphasizes the importance of considering seasonal changes and water quality parameters in managing V. alginolyticus in mariculture. It underscores the need for careful monitoring and control of environmental factors to ensure the health and well‐being of cultured fish populations. The findings contribute to our understanding of Vibriosis management and provide valuable insights for developing effective strategies in the aquaculture industry.
