Abstract:HE virulent clonal populations of Aeromonas spp. are recognized as the etiological agent of motile Aeromonas septicemia (MAS) outbreaks in aquaculture. This study aimed to identify Aeromonas spp. isolated from diseased Oreochromis niloticus, evaluate their virulence factors, and assess their resistance to antimicrobial agents. Species identification was conducted through analysis of the gyrB genes. Antibiotic resistance phenotypes and genotypes (bla TEM , bla CTX-M , aac(6′)-Ib-cr, and intI1) were determined. … Show more
