Vibrio splendidus biotype 1 as a cause of mortalities in hatchery-reared larval turbot, Scophthalmus maximus (L.)

Abstract

Identification of four isolates of V. splendidus that are pathogenic for turbot larvae from three separate batches of larval turbot will allow these to be compared with avirulent isolates to define how V. splendidus causes mortalities in larval turbot.
