Kurzfassung:
Enteritis has resulted in large economic losses in channel catfish aquaculture. Yet only scarce information is available on Plesiomonas shigelloides as a causal agent for this disease. In this study, a virulent strain, temporarily named BD1, was isolated from diseased channel catfish suffering from enteritis, and was identified as P. shigelloides through molecular and phenotypic methods. A phylogenetic tree was also constructed to determine its taxonomic position. In addition, the BD1 isolate has developed multiple resistances to aminoglycosides, amphenicols, quinolones, tetracyclines and sulfonamides drugs for veterinary uses in aquaculture as revealed when screened against a range of common antibiotics. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of P. shigelloides as a potential pathogen of enteritis in channel catfish.
