Francisella philomiragia, a bacteria associated with high mortalities in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) cage-farmed in Llanquihue lake

Francisella philomiragiawas isolated from Atlantic salmon cage-farmed in the Llanquihue lake with outbreaks of a granulomatous disease, with high rates of morbidity and an accumulated mortalities between 5% to 20%. The isolates had 100% similarity withF. philomiragiasspnoatunensisorF. piscicidaisola...
