Springer Nature Collections are curated groups of articles within a journal that provide highly focused exploration of specific themes and emerging topics to enhance the visibility and impact of research. By contributing to a Collection, you can benefit from increased visibility, meaningful academic connections, and ⁠broader impact. This collection - from the journal Aquaculture Science and  Management - focuses on the aquatic pathogen Aeromonas hydrophila.

Aeromonas hydrophila is a pathogen affecting a wide range of aquatic species, leading to severe economic losses and posing challenges to food security. Understanding the mechanisms by which Aeromonas hydrophila induces inflammation, alters intestinal morphology, and triggers antioxidant responses is essential for developing effective management strategies. As aquaculture continues to expand globally, the need for sustainable practices is urgent. The "Impact of Aeromonas hydrophila on Aquaculture: Inflammation, Intestinal Changes and Antioxidant Responses" collection in Aquaculture Science and Management focuses on this issue and invites contributions to the field.  Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

- Mechanisms of inflammation in fish
- Intestinal morphology alterations
- Histopathological studies of Aeromonas infections
- Antioxidant responses in aquaculture species
- Disease management strategies
- Genetic resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila 
- Environmental factors influencing disease outbreaks
- Impacts on aquaculture sustainability

“Impact of Aeromonas hydrophila on Aquaculture: Inflammation, Intestinal Changes and Antioxidant Responses” is led by Shivendra Kumar, Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University and Izzet Burçin Satıcıoğlu, Bursa Uludag University. The collection accepts original research, reviews and methodologies. As a new open access journal, we are able to cover the article processing charges for publications.
