Journal ArticleDOI

Pathogenicity of vibrios to rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, Walbaum) and Artemia nauplii.

TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of various recent isolates of vibrios to cause disease in rainbow trout and crustacea, i.e. Artemia nauplii.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of black cumin seed oil (Nigella sativa) and nettle extract (Quercetin) on enhancement of immunity in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum)

TL;DR: Humoral immune parameters including lysozyme, antiprotease, total protein, myeloperoxidase, bactericidal activity, and IgM titers were investigated and enhancement in all parameters compared to their respective controls was recorded.
Journal ArticleDOI

Taxonomic evidence that Vibrio carchariae Grimes et al. 1985 is a junior synonym of Vibrio harveyi (Johnson and Shunk 1936) Baumann et al, 1981.

TL;DR: The authors propose, on the basis of a number of tests, to delineate a core of V. harveyi strains which contained the type strains of both V.Harveyi and V. carchariae, whereas the other species were clearly distinct from these three species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recovery of a new biogroup of Yersinia ruckeri from diseased rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, Walbaum).

TL;DR: Cultures of a new biogroup of Yersinia ruckeri, the causal agent of enteric redmouth (ERM), were recovered in England from diseased rainbow trout, which had been previously vaccinated with a commercial ERM vaccine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of atypical Aeromonas salmonicida by different methods.

TL;DR: Fifty two isolates of atypical Aeromonas salmonicida, recovered from a wide range of hosts and geographical locations, were heterogeneous in terms of molecular and phenotypic characteristics, and represented taxa which could not be accommodated by the current classification of four subspecies.
