Eliciting expert judgements to estimate risk and protective factors for Piscirickettsiosis in Chilean salmon farming

open access: yesAquaculture, 2019
Abstract Global production of farmed salmon is increasingly threatened by emerging infectious diseases. Piscirickettsiosis or Salmonid Rickettsial Septicemia (SRS), a disease caused by the bacterium Piscirickettsia salmonis, is the major responsible for the overall disease-specific mortalities in the Chilean salmon industry. In this study, we applied

Piscirickettsiosis and piscirickettsiosis-like infections in fish: a review

Veterinary Microbiology, 2002
Piscirickettsia salmonis was the first "rickettsia-like" bacteria to be recognized as a pathogenic agent of fish. Since the first reports of piscirickettsiosis emerged from Chile in the late 1980s, Piscirickettsia-like bacteria have been recognized with increasing frequency in a variety of fish species, from both fresh and saltwaters around the world ...

A retrospective assessment of the effect of fallowing on piscirickettsiosis in Chile

Aquaculture, 2017
Abstract Piscirickettsiosis is an endemic disease of farmed salmonids in Chile, and is the main cause of infectious disease-related losses in the Chilean aquaculture industry. Inconsistent results with the use of vaccines and antimicrobials have led producers and government to search for alternative control measures.

Assessing concentration of antibiotics in tissue during oral treatments against piscirickettsiosis

Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2018
The use of antimicrobials in aquaculture is increasingly being scrutinized. In Chile, piscirickettsiosis accounts for approximately 90% of the total volume of antibiotics used in marine aquaculture. Treatment failures are frequently reported, but there is limited information on why this occurs.

Effect of sampling time and surveillance strategy on the time to onset and magnitude of piscirickettsiosis (Piscirikettsia salmonis) outbreaks in Chilean farmed Atlantic salmon

Aquaculture, 2020
Abstract Aquaculture is currently the primary source of fish for human consumption. However, the sustainability of this industry has been under scrutiny. In Chile, the main concern is the use of antibiotics to control piscirickettsiosis, and farmers have identified timely detection as a critical issue.

First report of piscirickettsiosis in farmed sea bass fingerlings (Dicentrarchus labrax, L. 1758) in Italy

open access: yes, 2005
Piscirickettsia salmonis is a pathogenic bacterial agent causing a septicaemic disease in salmon. Since its isolation in Chile in 1989, P. salmonis has continually produced high levels of mortality in salmon farms (Manuel and Miller, 2002). In the last few years disease outbreaks caused by Rickettsia-like organisms (RLOs) have been reported in non ...

From Genogroups to Control Strategies: A Comprehensive Review of Piscirickettsia salmonis and Piscirickettsiosis to Optimize Health Management in Salmonid Aquaculture

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture
ABSTRACT Piscirickettsiosis, caused by the facultative intracellular bacterium Piscirickettsia salmonis , remains the primary infectious disease economically limiting salmonid aquaculture in Chile, while its incidence has also ...

Immunization with bacterial antigens: piscirickettsiosis.

Developments in biological standardization, 1997
Piscirickettsiosis is a septicaemic disease of salmonid fish caused by the obligated intracellular rickettsia, Piscirickettsia salmonis. This disease was first reported in 1989 in salmon cultured in sea water netpens in southern Chile where it is still a major problem causing high mortality among cultured salmonids.
