Serological responses and immunity produced in salmonids by vaccination with Australian strains of Vibrio anguillarum.
The Australian populations of rainbow trout (Onchorhynchus mykiss) and Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) were found to have similar immunological responses to local strains of Vibrio anguillarum as those reported for the more genetically diverse populations of these fish and strains of V. anguillarum found in the Northern Hemisphere. In addition, our studies more precisely defined the respective responses of rainbow trout and Atlantic salmon to immersion vaccination by the bath and dip methods.
