Roberts, DVM *, Stephen A. Smith, DVM, PhD KEYWORDS Pet fish Ornamental fish Branchitis Gill Wet mount cytology Hypoxia Respiratory disorders Pathology Living in an aquatic environment where oxygen is in less supply and harder to extract than in a terrestrial one, fish have developed a respiratory system that is much more efficient than terrestrial vertebrates. The gills of fish are a unique organ system and serve several functions including respiration, osmoregulation, excretion of nitroge- nous wastes, and acid-base regulation.1 The gills are the primary site of oxygen exchange in fish and are in intimate contact with the aquatic environment. In most cases, the separation between the water and the tissues of the fish is only a few cell layers thick. Gills are a common target for assault by infectious and noninfectious disease processes.2 Nonlethal diagnostic biopsy of the gills can identify pathologic changes, provide samples for bacterial culture/identification/sensitivity testing, aid in fungal element identification, provide samples for viral testing, and provide parasitic organisms for identification.3–6 This diagnostic test is so important that it should be included as part of every diagnostic workup performed on a fish.

  • Detection and Identification of Fish Pathogens: What Is the Future?

They can be caused by many organisms, including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa. The lack of rapid, accurate, and reliable means of detecting and identifying fish pathogens is one of the main limitations in fish pathogen diagnosis and disease management and has triggered the search for alternative diagnostic techniques. In this regard, the advent of molecular biology, especially polymerase chain reaction (PCR), provides alternative means for detecting and iden- tifying fish pathogens. Many techniques have been developed, each requiring its own protocol, equipment, and expertise. A major challenge at the moment is the development of multiplex assays that allow accurate detection, identification, and quantification of multiple pathogens in a single assay, even if they belong to different superkingdoms. In this review, recent advances in molecular fish pathogen diagnosis are discussed with an emphasis on nucleic acid-based detec- tion and identification techniques.

  • Assessing Disease Impacts of Hatcheries on Downstream Salmonids in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Michelle Jakaitis for the degree of Master of Science in Microbiology presented on November 4th, 2014. Title: Assessing Disease Impacts of Hatcheries on Downstream Salmonids in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon. Abstract approved: ____________________________________________________________ Jerri L. Bartholomew Hatcheries are often perceived as a source of pathogen amplification, potentially increasing disease risk to free-ranging populations; at the same time, free-ranging fishes may introduce pathogens into hatcheries through untreated water sources. Many pathogens exist naturally within the environment (with the exception of introduced pathogens) and the presence of a pathogen does not guarantee infection or disease (Naish, Taylor III, Levin, Quinn, Winton, Huppert & Hilborn 2007). Infections can be acute, chronic, or asymptomatic, fish may die, recover, or become carriers (Naish et al. 2007), and pathogens may be shed from any of these stages (Scottish Executive 2002). Most salmon and trout hatcheries along the Willamette River Basin, Oregon, USA, utilize an untreated river water supply for their rearing ponds and release this water, untreated, back into the river. This creates a potential for waterborne pathogens present in free-ranging hosts to be transmitted through the water supply to hatchery populations. Moreover, any hatchery epizootic can amplify pathogens and release these into the water, which could have a direct impact on free- ranging populations exposed to those pathogens in hatchery effluent. The goal of this thesis was to assess transmission of the pathogens Flavobacterium columnare, F. psychrophilum, Aeromonas salmonicida, Renibacterium salmonicida, and Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV), at selected hatcheries in the Willamette River Basin. To accomplish this, I considered historical data and hatchery-specific and pathogen-specific factors involved in transmission and disease.

First, their small size and ease of breeding make zebrafish relatively inexpensive to maintain, which allows researchers to perform experiments using zebrafish that would be cost prohibitive using larger animal models. Secondly, embryos are transparent, which allows easy visualization of cell and organ development and permits experimental manipulations involving DNA or mRNA injection, cell labeling and transplantation. Zebrafish are now commonly employed as models in a diverse range of bioresearch fields, such as immunology, infectious disease, cardiac and vascular disease research, chemical and drug toxicity studies, reproductive biology and cancer research to name a few. As with other vertebrate models used in research, undetected infections can alter, confound or invalidate experimental results. Therefore, it is important to develop and utilize a health monitoring program to detect infectious agents that may affect the animal and the research outcomes. IDEXX BioResearch has developed sensitive molecular diagnostic assays to improve health monitoring for zebrafish colonies.

FLAVOBACTERIUM GLIDING MOTILITY: FROM PROTEIN SECRETION TO CELL SURFACE ADHESIN MOVEMENTS by Joseph J. Johnston A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biological Sciences at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee August 2019 ABSTRACT FLAVOBACTERIUM GLIDING MOTILITY: FROM PROTEIN SECRETION TO CELL SURFACE ADHESIN MOVEMENTS by Joseph J. Johnston The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2019 Under the Supervision of Dr. Mark J. McBride Flavobacterium johnsoniae exhibits rapid gliding motility over surfaces. At least twenty genes are involved in this process. Seven of these, gldK, gldL, gldM, gldN, sprA, sprE, and sprT encode proteins of the type IX protein secretion system (T9SS). The T9SS is required for surface localization of the motility adhesins SprB and RemA, and for secretion of the soluble chitinase ChiA. This thesis demonstrates that the gliding motility proteins GldA, GldB, GldD, GldF, GldH, GldI and GldJ are also essential for secretion.
