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 ...

Identification of Cold-Temperature-Regulated Genes in Flavobacterium psychrophilum [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2011
ABSTRACT Flavobacterium psychrophilum is the etiological agent of bacterial coldwater disease (BCWD) and rainbow trout fry syndrome (RTFS). It causes disease primarily in fresh water-reared salmonids, but other fish species can also be affected. A diverse array of clinical conditions is associated with BCWD, including

Large-scale molecular serogroup analysis of Flavobacterium psychrophilum isolates recovered from captive, wild, and feral fishes in the USA

Frontiers in Aquaculture
Flavobacterium psychrophilum, causative agent of bacterial coldwater disease (BCWD) and rainbow trout fry syndrome (RTFS), is one of the most problematic bacterial pathogens affecting captive-reared salmonids (Family Salmonidae) worldwide.

Expanding Horizons in Phage Therapy: Addressing Antibiotic Resistance in Aquaculture

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture has emerged as a cornerstone of global food security, yet its rapid intensification has precipitated widespread bacterial disease outbreaks and escalating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This review critically examines the limitations of conventional antibiotic use in aquaculture, highlighting regulatory inconsistencies ...

Bacterial coldwater disease of fishes caused by Flavobacterium psychrophilum

Journal of Advanced Research, 2011
Coldwater disease (CWD) is a bacterial disease that affects a broad host-species range of fishes that inhabit cold, fresh waters. This disease occurs predominately at water temperatures of 16 °C and below, and is most prevalent and severe at 10 °C and ...

OmpA_C‐Like Domain of PorE Is Essential for PorE Function in the Type IX Secretion System (T9SS) of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Some T9SS Cargo Proteins Are Secreted in a PorE‐Independent Manner

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 15-26, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis secretes gingipains, highly hydrolytic proteases, to the cell surface or external environment via a type IX secretion system (T9SS). PorE is one of the T9SS component proteins essential for gingipain secretion. It consists of four domains: TPR, WD40, CRD, and OmpA_C‐like.

Metabarcoding Reveals a Potentially Undescribed Columnaris‐Causing Bacterium in Peracute Skin Disease of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, Walbaum)

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Columnaris‐causing bacteria (CCB) represent a group of four Flavobacterium species, previously classified under Flavobacterium columnaris, causing a threatening condition in salmonid farming characterised by cutaneous and gill lesions, commonly referred to as ‘saddleback disease’. A peracute skin disease outbreak with high mortality in rainbow

Stress Nutrition in Aquatic Animals: From Definition to Practice

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture faces numerous challenges, with stress being one of the major issues that lead to growth loss, metabolic disorders, weakened immunity, redox imbalance, and organ damage in aquatic animals. Nutritional intervention is one of the effective strategies to address these problems. Traditional research has primarily focused on the impacts

PACAP Is Lethal to Flavobacterium psychrophilum Through Either Direct Membrane Permeabilization or Indirectly, by Priming the Immune Response in Rainbow Trout Macrophages

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a multifunctional neuropeptide that is widely distributed in mammals and is capable of performing roles as a neurotransmitter, neuromodulator, and vasodilator.
