In the ill C. semilaevis, the body surface was congestive and bleeding;the skin in the blind side ulcerated with extravasated blood; the gill filaments ulcerated with a lot of mucus; the liver, pancreas and spleen were swelling and bleeding with extravasated blood; the small intestine was congestive and bleeding. Degeneration and necrosis, and submucosal bleeding occurred in the skin of C. semilaevis infected with red abdominal shell disease. There was red blood cell infiltration and deposition in the space among muscle fibers. Epithelial degeneration and necrosis occurred in the parotid gland. The efferent branchial artery was congestive. The myocardial fibers had a loose structure, and a large area of fracture appeared. The liver cells were swelling with degeneration and necrosis and concentrated nucleus. A large area of the renal interstitial was broken down and necrotic. The submucosa of the small intestine had necrosis and hemorrhage.展开更多

Gross signs of the diseased tongue sole included several petechiae and ecchymoses on the body and fin necrosis and hemorrhagic lesion at the base of the fin. Bacteria were isolated from kidney, liver and hemorrhagic lesions of the diseased tongue sole. Among 14 strains, SJ060621 was proved to be highly virulent to juvenile tongue sole with LD50 value of 〈1.0×10^5 colony forming units （CFU）mL^-1, while the remaining 13 were avirulent. Among the 16 antibiotics tested, SJ060621 was sensitive to gentamicin and nitrofurantoin. It was identified as Listonella anguillantm with conventional plate and tube tests in combination with API 20E analysis. 16S rRNA gene and partial HSP60 gene sequenceing analysis revealed that the strain was highly homologous with L. anguillarum. Examination of the infected musculature by electron microscopy indicated numerous bacteria and lots of macrophages containing phagocytosed bacteria. Histopathological investigations revealed severe necrotic degenerative changes in the infected organs. Indirect immunofluorescence assay （IFA） was employed to detect the location of occurrence of bacteria, and bacteria were found in aggregations in the inflammatory areas in musculature.展开更多
