Comparative Genomics and Transcriptional Analysis of Flavobacterium columnare Strain ATCC 49512. [PDF]

Front Microbiol, 2017
Flavobacterium columnare is a Gram-negative fish pathogen causing columnaris disease in wild and cultured fish species. Although the pathogen is widespread in aquatic environments and fish worldwide, little is known about biology of F. columnare and mechanisms of columnaris disease pathogenesis. Previously we presented the complete genome sequence of F.

Genome Sequence of the Fish Pathogen Flavobacterium columnare ATCC 49512 [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2012
Flavobacterium columnare is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile, and highly prevalent fish pathogen causing columnaris disease in freshwater fish worldwide. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of F. columnare strain ATCC 49512.

Immunofluorescent test for simultaneous detection of Edwardsiella ictaluri and Flavobacterium columnare [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2006
Enteric septicemia of catfish (ESC) and columnaris disease are 2 bacterial diseases significantly affecting the aquaculture industry, and thus rapid diagnosis of disease is imperative for making judicious management decisions. A rapid indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) test with antibody conjugated fluorochromes having 2 different spectral properties (

The use of phage FCL-2 as an alternative to chemotherapy against columnaris disease in aquaculture

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Flavobacterium columnare, the causative agent of columnaris disease in fish, causes millions of dollars of losses in the US channel catfish industry alone, not to mention aquaculture industry worldwide.

Hybridization and Immunology in Animals: A Review

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Hybridization can reshape immune function by introducing novel genetic variation and combining parental immune traits. Across animal taxa, this process may influence resistance, tolerance, and pathogen dynamics, with important implications for disease ecology and One Health.

A Review of Phage Therapy for Aquaculture Applications: Efficacy, Health Ramifications and Research Challenges

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 300-312, March 2026.
Bacteriophage therapy is characterised by numerous advantages, facilitating its diverse aquaculture application and efficacy as an antibiotic alternative mitigating the spread of antimicrobial‐resistant pathogens. Contributing to the modern reappraisal of the aquaculture application of bacteriophage therapy, challenges impeding its widespread ...

Immunogenic proteins and their vaccine development potential evaluation in outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Flavobacterium columnare

Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2016
Flavobacterium columnare is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes columnaris disease in freshwater fish worldwide. Many studies have focused on the identification of protective antigens to aid in the development of novel vaccines against the disease.

Protein O‐glycosylation in the Bacteroidota phylum

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 243-251, February 2026.
Species of the Bacteroidota phylum exhibit a unique O‐glycosylation system. It modifies noncytoplasmic proteins on a specific amino acid motif with a shared glycan core but a species‐specific outer glycan. A locus of multiple glycosyltransferases responsible for the synthesis of the outer glycan has been identified.
