Abstract:Virulent Aeromonas hydrophila (vAh) strains that cause motile Aeromonas septicemia (MAS) in farmed channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) have been an important problem for more than a decade. However, the routes of infection of vAh in catfish are not well understood. Therefore, it is critical to study the pathogenicity of vAh in catfish. To this goal, a new bioluminescence expression plasmid (pAKgfplux3) with the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat) gene was constructed and mobilized into vAh strain ML09-11… Show more
