Abstract:
Aims:The occurrence of bacterial disease in shrimp ponds is a major problem faced in shrimp farming. Thus, the aims of this study were to isolate and evaluate antibiotic resistant profile of Vibrio harveyi strain isolated from shrimp pond water, as well as to study the potential anti-Vibrio activity of Combretum quadrangulare Kurz. (CQ) and Mimosa pudica (MP) leaves extracts.
Methodology and results:Vibrio harveyi WSC103 was isolated from water in white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) culture pond and identified using 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis. This strain showed characteristics of multidrug-resistant (7 antibiotics). It had become more sensitive to antibiotics (9 out of 10 antibiotics) after plasmid curing. It is showed CQ and MP leaves extracts contain potent bioactive compounds (tannins, flavonoids, steroids, cardiac glycosides and alkaloids) against V. harveyi WSC103. The aqueous, 95% ethanolic and 75% acetone extracts of CQ (MIC value of 3.13-12.50 mg/mL) and MP (MIC value of 3.13-25.00 mg/mL) leaves revealed strong vibriostatic activity, but aqueous and 95% ethanolic extracts in both plants showed vibriocidal activity. The 95% ethanolic extract of both CQ and MP leaves displayed the excellent vibriocidal property with MBC value of 100 mg/mL with zone of inhibition at 11.44 ± 1.01 and 11.78 ± 1.01 mm by agar disc diffusion.
Conclusion, significance and impact of study:The isolated Vibrio harveyi WSC103 was successfully characterized as a novel multidrug-resistant strain. The ethanolic C. quadrangulare Kurz. and M. pudica extracts exhibited prominent vibriostatic and vibriocidal capacities. These finding is proven that C. quadrangulare Kurz. and M. pudica extracts would be an alternative anti-Vibrio agent for aquaculture infectious treatment. - Full text:20.2021my0055.pdf
