Comparative Pathogenicity of <i>Aeromonas</i> spp. in Cultured Red Hybrid Tilapia (<i>Oreochromis niloticus × O. mossambicus</i>)
The genus <i>Aeromonas</i> has been recognised as an important pathogenic species in aquaculture that causes motile <i>Aeromonas</i> septicaemia (MAS) or less severe, chronic infections. This study compares the pathogenicity of the different <i>Aeromonas</i> spp....
