A giant freshwater prawn nucleus breeding farm located in in Kampung Chennah, Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan has no systemic approach to prevent prawn diseases caused by viruses and bacteria. This study was undertaken to implement a systemic approach of genetic, health surveillance and biosafety measures in the farm. 19 juveniles M. rosenbergii (cycle 1) and 30 juveniles M. rosenbergii (cycle 2) were sampled from the pond by seining for mitochondrion DNA analysis, viral screenings and bacterial screenings.

Cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) of mitochondrial gene was used for phylogenetic analysis by DNA amplification using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method.

The giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, as known as udang galah in Malaysia, is the biggest freshwater prawn in the world. The Department of Fisheries in Malaysia is giving priority on M. rosenbergii as food products for consumption and export. However, the major limitation in shrimp production is diseases. Like other animals, prawns are affected by viruses, bacteria, fungi, and metazoan parasites. A giant freshwater prawn nucleus breeding farm located in in Kampung Chennah, Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan has no systemic approach to prevent prawn diseases caused by viruses and bacteria. This study was undertaken to implement a systemic approach of genetic, health surveillance and biosafety measures in the farm. 19 juveniles M. rosenbergii (cycle 1) and 30 juveniles M. rosenbergii (cycle 2) were sampled from the pond by seining for mitochondrion DNA analysis, viral screenings and bacterial screenings.
