Quantitative PCR Detection of Tenacibaculum Maritimum and Tenacibaculum Dicentrarchi at Netpen Sites in British Columbia (Canada)
Several Tenacibaculum bacterial species are detrimental to aquaculture, inducing tenacibaculosis in fishes, but information on the bacteria’s ecology is limited. Two quantitative-PCR assays for T. maritimum and T. dicentrarchi were used to survey two separate Atlantic salmon netpen sites in 2019-20...
