Abstract

Flavobacterium columnare is the causative agent of the columnaris disease, which is recognized as one of the main pathogens of fresh water fishes. Early studies [1] indicated that F. columnare presents a broad genetic heterogeneity within the species, and isolates can be classified into three different genomovars based on the 16S rDNA gene restriction fragment length polymorphisms (16S rDNA-RFLP), 16S rDNA sequencing, and DNA-DNA hybridization. It has been reported that genomovar II isolates are more virulent to blue and channel catfish than genomovar I strains [2].
