Abstract Edwardsiella piscicida causes significant economic losses to the aquaculture industry worldwide. Phage-based biocontrol methods are experiencing a renaissance because of spread drug-resistant genes and bacteria resulting from heavy use antibiotics. Here, we showed that novel phage EPP-1 could achieve comparable efficacy florfenicol using zebrafish model infection reduce content floR resistance gene in excreta. Specifically, inhibited bacterial growth vitro significantly improved survival rate vivo ( P = 0.0035), achieving an 0.2304). Notably, integrating results 16S rRNA sequencing, metagenomic qPCR, although effects converged with those terms community composition potential function gut microbiota, it reduced excreta water. Overall, our study highlights feasibility safety therapy for edwardsiellosis control, which has profound implications development antibiotic alternatives address crisis.

Influence of Rainfall on Size-Resolved Bioaerosols Around a Livestock Farm

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2024

Bioaerosols, capable of transporting microorganisms, can impact human health and agriculture by spreading to nearby communities. Their transmissions are influenced various factors, including weather conditions activities. However, the scarcity detailed, taxon-specific data on bioaerosols' sizes limits our ability assess risks associated with generation spread. This study examined composition size bioaerosols at a livestock farm non-agricultural site, focusing how evolve different locations meteorological conditions. The location had straightforward bioaerosol samples. We observed consistently higher concentrations across all samples exhibited greater bacterial diversity, where we identified Staphylococcus Corynebacterium as most abundant species. effects rainfall diversity complex, suggesting dynamic interplay between removal generation. After rainfall, fraction particles larger than 2.5 µm increased nearly 400% compared post-rain levels. Conversely, for below 1 size, decreased 50%. Our analysis showed that Streptococcus Prevotella were common during non-rainy periods. research reveals location, environmental influence dynamics, enhancing understanding formation transmission.
