Abstract

Detections of Vibrio anguillarum from freshwater of ayu Plecoglossus altivelis culture ponds and sea water of the Inland Sea of Japan were made by a two-step culture method consisting of alkaline peptone water and BTB teepole agar. As the results, V. anguillarum was often detected from sea waters especially when water temperature was below 20°C, but not from freshwaters in spite of the occurrence of vibriosis in some ponds.<br> Among 89 isolated strains of V. anguillarum, only 13 strains belong to the known serotypes form A to I, and 8 strains were pathogenic to ayu or Japanese eel Anguilla japonica.<br> It was demonstrated by in vitro experiments that the organism persisted in sea water but perished within 3 to 5h in freshwater.
