Vibrio anguillarum, part of the normal flora of the aquatic milieu, causes a fatal haemorrhagic
septicaemia in marine fish. In this study, a rainbow trout model was used to characterize the …

Vibrio anguillarum causes a fatal haemorrhagic septicaemia in marine fish. During initial
stages of infection, host surfaces are colonized; however, few virulence factors required for …

Colonization of host tissues is a first step taken by many pathogens during the initial stages
of infection. Despite the impact of bacterial disease on wild and farmed fish, only a few direct …

The port of entrance in the fish for the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio anguillarum remains an
enigma. Chemotactic motility has previously been shown to be a virulence factor, and …

A 5 kb DNA fragment encoding a hemolysin was cloned from the fish pathogenic
bacteriumVibrio anguillarumusing the cosmid vector charomid9-36. An open reading frame …

Previously, the double-transposon (Tn) mutant VAN20 of Vibrio anguillarum (Va) 775.17 B
was isolated. This mutant lacked a major surface antigen (MSA) suggested to be a …

Vibrio species are Gram-negative bacteria that cause a systemic infection in fish called
vibriosis. The authors previously demonstrated that internalization and cytotoxicity are …

Four nucleotide sequences showing homology to known hemolysin genes were cloned and
sequenced from V. anguillarum strain H775-3. The four genes, vah2, vah3, vah4 and vah5 …

The phenotypic, molecular, and virulence properties of 46 Vibrio anguillarum-related (VAR)
strains isolated from diseased fish and shellfish and from the environment were investigated …

In this study, we aimed to understand whether abiotic factors affect the expression of
virulence genes in Vibrio anguillarum. We observed the in vitro responses of two …
