Comparing the different morphotypes of a fish pathogen - implications for key virulence factors in Flavobacterium columnare

BACKGROUND: Flavobacterium columnare (Bacteroidetes) is the causative agent of columnaris disease in farmed freshwater fish around the world. The bacterium forms three colony morphotypes (Rhizoid, Rough and Soft), but the differences of the morphotypes are poorly known. We studied the virulence of t...
