Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes in the bacterial flora of integrated fish farming environments of Pakistan and Tanzania.
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that integrated fish farming practices utilizing domestic farm and poultry waste along with antibiotic residues from animal husbandry may have contributed to a pool of resistance genes in the aquaculture systems studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Edwardsiella piscicida sp. nov., a novel species pathogenic to fish.
TL;DR: This study describes a novel species within the genus Edwardsiella based on phenotypic and genetic characterization of fish pathogenic EdwardsIElla isolates previously identified as E. tarda.
Journal ArticleDOI
Francisella infections in farmed and wild aquatic organisms.
Duncan J. Colquhoun,Samuel Duodu +1 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the virulence mechanisms and host response shows similarity to those known from Francisella tularensis infection in mammals, however, no evidence exists for zoonotic potential amongst the fish pathogenic Francisella.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel systemic granulomatous inflammatory disease in farmed Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua L., associated with a bacterium belonging to the genus Francisella

Journal ArticleDOI
Genome characterisation of the genus Francisella reveals insight into similar evolutionary paths in pathogens of mammals and fish.
Andreas Sjödin,Kerstin Svensson,Caroline Öhrman,Jon Ahlinder,Petter Lindgren,Samuel Duodu,Anders Johansson,Duncan J. Colquhoun,Pär Larsson,Mats Forsman +9 more
TL;DR: The analyses suggest that the ancestral Francisella species originated in a marine habitat, and the observed genome to genome variation in gene content and IS elements of different species supports the view that similar evolutionary paths of host adaptation developed independently in F. noatunensis.
