Moritella viscosa in lumpfish ( Cyclopterus lumpus) and Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar)
Abstract Winter ulcer disease, caused by Moritella viscosa , is a significant problem in cold water salmonid farming, although the bacterium can infect and cause disease in a number of other fish species, such as lumpfish ( Cyclopterus lumpus ). Lumpfish are used as cleaner fish, to eat sea lice fro...
