Development of an immersion challenge model for Streptococcus agalactiae in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
2021-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus agalactiae, the causative agent of streptococcosis in fish, induces significant mortality in the tilapia aquaculture. To elucidate the pathogenesis of S. agalactiae in tilapia, a simple and feasible challenge model was established in this study. Here, we report the development of an immersion challenge model that mimics a natural outbreak of S. agalactiae. In this model, tilapia were allowed to stres...
