Due to the recent taxonomic reclassification of the species Flavobacterium columnare into four new species—Flavobacterium columnare, Flavobacterium davisii, Flavobacterium covae, and Flavobacterium oreochromis—it is necessary to re-evaluate isolates of previous outbreaks to better understand the epidemiology related to this bacterial group. Therefo...
Lactococcus petauri is an emergent fish pathogen detected in mortality outbreaks in Nile tilapia and rainbow trout farms on the American continent. Diseased fish exhibits erratic swimming, eye disorders, dark skin pigmentation among other clinical signs. The multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a well-established methodology for the study of bacter...
Piscine lactococcosis is a disease caused by Lactococcus garvieae, L. petauri and L. formosensis. It is considered to be an emerging disease and poses a risk to global aquaculture production. Studies of the genetic diversity of Lactococcus spp. strains have epidemiological importance since they provide information on the genetic relationships betwe...
This study aimed to identify and characterize isolates of Francisella salimarina associated with an outbreak on a marine fish farm in Brazil and to analyse their genetic variability and antimicrobial susceptibility. In 2021, diseased cobias (Rachycentron canadum, n = 10) and dusky groupers (Epinephelus marginatus, n = 10) were sampled and subjected...

Simple Summary
Edwardsiellosis is a disease caused by bacteria of the genus Edwardsiella, like Edwardsiella tarda, which mainly affects fish. In Brazil, this bacterium has been found in many tambaquis since 2014; however, an investigation into how this fish is affected and the potential implications of this has never been conducted. After experimen...
