Prevalence of genetically similar <i>Flavobacterium columnare</i> phages across aquaculture environments reveals a strong potential for pathogen control
2020-09-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Intensive aquaculture conditions expose fish to bacterial infections, leading to significant financial losses, extensive antibiotic use and risk of antibiotic resistance in target bacteria. Flavobacterium columnare causes columnaris disease in aquaculture worldwide. To develop a bacteriophage-based control of columnaris disease, we isolated and characterized 126 F. columnare strains and 63 phag...
