Turkey was the largest rainbow trout producer of the European countries in 2016, and the reason for this production is mainly attributed to its egg and fry production. Flavobacterium psychrophilum cause the highest rates of mortality in the starting to feeding stages of the fish. In the present study, twenty‐five F. psychrophilum isolates recovered from rainbow trout, coruh trout and brook trout were analysed by RAPD ‐ PCR , E...

Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus ( IPNV ) is a common pathogen of rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss ) in Turkey. We found that 455 of 1,676 sample pools tested were IPNV positive. Positive samples were found in all geographical regions where sampling was conducted. Sequence and phylogenetic analyses of VP 2 from 30 isolates representing all regions showed that the viruses were highly similar in sequence and grouped withi...

Aeromonas hydrophila is known to be causative agent of an infection named as Bacterial haemorrhagic septicaemia or red pest in freshwater fish. The aim of this study was to develop and validate the glycoprotein‐based fish vaccine against Aeromonas hydrophila . For this aim, after identification and characterization of A. hydrophila isolates from fish farms, one A. hydrophila isolate was selected as vaccine strain. Antigenic gl...
