A review of reported seaweed diseases and pests in aquaculture in Asia (2020, background): “Losses of eucheumatoid stocks because of diseases and pests in the Philippines have resulted in a reduction of 15% of production yields, which is equivalent to almost $100 million on an annual basis (Cottier-Cook et al., 2016).”
Phyconomy: the extensive cultivation of seaweeds, their sustainability and economic value, with particular reference to important lessons to be learned and transferred from the practice of eucheumatoid farming (2019, background): “Such an approach would be a major strategy in safeguarding the sustainability of red seaweed phyconomic activities in developing countries (Cottier-Cook et al. 2016).”
Seaweed production: overview of the global state of exploitation, farming and emerging research activity (2017, background): “Negative impacts may be: cross-breeding between domesticated and wild strains and the harbouring of parasites (Skjermo et al., 2014), as well as unintentional introduction of non-indigenous ‘hitchhiker’ species, including pathogens (Cottier-Cook et al., 2016).”
