Year: 1993
Type: article
Abstract: Strains of Aeromonas salmonicida ssp.salmoni-salrnonicida ssp.masoucida, and several isolates not cida lacking pigment production were isolated from brown assigned to any of the valid subspecies, trout Salmo trutta m. lacustris and sea trout S. trutta m. trutta Recently a fourth subspecies, A. salmonicida ssp.cultivated in fresh water in south Finland.The bacteria isolated showed only minor deviations in biochen~ical character-smithid, which readily produce the lstics compared to 2 strains of A. sillmonicjda ssp.salmoniclda pigment, was proposed by Austin et al. (1989).and the type strain of A. saln~onicjda ssp.salmoniclda (NCMB 1102).Several characters differed when compared to the type strain of A. salmonicida ssp.achromogenes (NCMB 1110).In challenge experiments, the strain tested was highly pathogenic to rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss.
