Pathogenicity of vibrio splendidus strains associated with turbot larvae, scophthalmus maximus

Antigenic characterization of Vibrio anguillarum - related organisms isolated from turbot and cod

This work reports on the antigenic characterization and virulence for rainbow trout Oncorhynchus rnykiss of Vibrio anguillarurn-related (VAR) strains isolated from diseased turbot Scophthal1nus maximus and cod Gadus niorhua in Spain and Denmark. These vibrio strains belong to Mbrio splendldus biovar 1 (serogroups B , C , D, F and G) and pelagius biovar I (serogroup A). The pathogenicity assays ...

INFECTIONS WITH VIBRIO ANGUILLARUM A model for experimental infections with Vibrio (Listonella) anguillarum in first feeding turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.) larvae under hatchery conditions

Pathogenicity of birnaviruses isolated from turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) : comparison with reference serotypes of IPNV

The pathogenicity of different birnavirus strains to turbot was determined by challenge experiments. The reference strains of IPNV (Sp, Ab and VR-299) were not pathogenic for turbot (Scophthalmus maximus). The Norwegian serotype (N1) and two selected birnavirus strains isolated from turbot and related to the Ab serotype of IPNV (TB-306 and TB-390) were virulent to different degrees for turbot a...

Intestinal colonization potential of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus)- and dab (Limanda limanda)-associated bacteria with inhibitory effects against Vibrio anguillarum.

Of more than 400 bacteria isolated from turbot (Scophthalmus maximus), 89 have previously been shown to inhibit the in vitro growth of the fish pathogen Vibrio anguillarum. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of seven of these strains, as well as of intestinal isolates (four strains) from a closely related fish, dab (Limanda limanda), for colonizing farmed turbot as a ...

Evaluation of immunomodulatory effects of lactic acid bacteria in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus).

In the present work, the effects of several lactic acid bacteria on the immune response of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) macrophages have been studied both in vitro and in vivo. Out of six lactic acid bacterial strains tested, only heat-killed Lactococcus lactis significantly increased the turbot head kidney macrophage chemiluminescent (CL) response after 24 h of incubation. Nitric oxide (NO) w...
