Epidemiology of Turbot (Scophthalmus maeoticus) Bacterial Contamination, a Fishery Limiting Factor on the Romanian Black Sea
The aim of this research was to evaluate the health status of the Scophthalmus maeoticus (Pallas, 1814) population from the Romanian marine area in 2016–2019, by identifying and investigating information about bacterial and constitutional diseases, establishing the influence of these bacterioses on...
