Catfish Mucus Alters the Flavobacterium columnare Transcriptome [PDF]
Columnaris disease, caused by Flavobacterium columnare, severely impacts the production of freshwater finfish species. Therefore, efforts to better understand the biological processes of F. columnare, including the formation of biofilms and their contribution to disease, are ongoing. In this study, we incubated F.

Bacteriological Studies on Flavobacterium columnare in Fish [PDF]
Columnaris is one of the oldest known fish diseases caused by Flavobacterium columnare. The wide spreading of the causative agent in freshwater environments and the susceptibility of fish to be attacked by it after mechanical and/or environmental factors makes F.

DNA fingerprinting of Flavobacterium columnare using RAPD-PCR [PDF]
In the present study, DNA fingerprinting of eight strains of Flavobacterium columnare was done by random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting method. The strains were collected from Fish Health Management Division, Central Institute of Freshwater Aquaculture, Bhubaneswar, India. A total number of 160 primers were screened for RAPD-PCR,

Flavobacterium columnarechemotaxis to channel catfish mucus [PDF]
Flavobacterium columnare is a Gram-negative pathogen of many species of wild and cultured fish. Isolates from diseased channel catfish belong to either genomovar I or II. Genomovar II isolates were found to be more virulent than genomovar I isolates.

Prophages and Past Prophage-Host Interactions Revealed by CRISPR Spacer Content in a Fish Pathogen
The role of prophages in the evolution, diversification, or virulence of the fish pathogen Flavobacterium columnare has not been studied thus far. Here, we describe a functional spontaneously inducing prophage fF4 from the F.
