Association of Cytophaga psychrophila with mortality among eyed eggs of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).
Although Pseudomonas fluorescens was the predominant bacterium associated with Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) eggs incubated at the White River National Fish Hatchery (Bethel, Vermont) during January 1992, the fish pathogen Cytophaga psychrophila was isolated only from specific lots of eggs that displayed poor survival (35% eye-up).
