Shaping Plant Growth Beneath the Soil: A Theoretical Exploration of Fungal Endophyte's Role as Plant Growth-Promoting Agents. [PDF]
A schematic representation depicting various mechanisms of plant growth promotion by fungal endophytes present in different parts of the plant. Fungal endophytes are present in various parts of the plant, including leaves, stems, and most abundantly in roots.

Intensive fish farming and the evolution of pathogen virulence: the case of columnaris disease in Finland. [PDF]
Ecological changes affect pathogen epidemiology and evolution and may trigger the emergence of novel diseases. Aquaculture radically alters the ecology of fish and their pathogens. Here we show an increase in the occurrence of the bacterial fish diseaseFlavobacterium columnarein salmon fingerlings at a fish farm in northern Finland over 23 years.

Evaluating Stress-Mediated Microbial Pathogenesis in Golden Shiners, Notemigonus crysoleucas
Flavobacterium covae (columnaris) is a microbial pathogen of the Golden Shiner (Notemigonus crysoleucas), a principal bait species. We investigated the effects of density and water temperature on the survival of fish subjected to a columnaris challenge ...

Viruses of bacteria, bacteriophages, specifically infect their bacterial hosts with minimal effects on the surrounding microbiota. They have the potential to be used in the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections, including in the field of food ...

Cortisol directly impacts Flavobacterium columnare in vitro growth characteristics [PDF]
Teleost fish faced with stressful stimuli launch an endocrine stress response through activation of the hypothalamicpituitary-interrenal axis to release glucocorticoids, in particular cortisol, into the blood. For the majority of bacterial fish pathogens,

Columnaris-causing bacteria <i>Flavobacterium covae</i> isolated from diseased fish in Australia. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Flavobacterium covae is one of four Flavobacterium spp. causing columnaris disease in teleost fish. Here, we present the draft genome of a new isolate, FC5-24/06, which is the first reported from Australia.

Variance and covariance estimates for resistance to bacterial cold water disease and columnaris disease in two rainbow trout breeding populations1. [PDF]
Family-based selective breeding can be an effective strategy for controlling diseases in aquaculture. This study aimed to estimate (co)variance components for resistance to bacterial cold water disease (BCWD) and columnaris disease (CD) in two unrelated rainbow trout nucleus breeding populations: the USDA, ARS, National Center for Cool and Cold Water ...

Flavobacterium columnare ferric iron uptake systems are required for virulence
Flavobacterium columnare, which causes columnaris disease, is one of the costliest pathogens in the freshwater fish-farming industry. The virulence mechanisms of F. columnare are not well understood and current methods to control columnaris outbreaks are
