Enhanced Virulence of Aeromonas hydrophila Is Induced by Stress and Serial Passaging in Mice
Aeromonas hydrophila was isolated from an African black-footed penguin (Spheniscus demersus) that died while in zoo captivity.At necropsy, the virulence of A.hydrophila appeared to be enhanced by stress, so was assessed in the presence of in vitro and click here in vivo stressors and serial passaging in mice.Virulence genes from the isolate were am
