Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The emerging foodborne pathogen, Aeromonas hydrophila, co-infects humans and animals, especially fish, threatening aquacultural production and public health. Previously, we found that Scatophagus argus, a widely cultivated fish species with high economic value, exhibited enhanced growth but increased susceptibility to A. hydrophila infection under freshwater conditions compared to seawater conditions....
