Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) is the causative agent of rainbow trout () IPN and causes significant loss of fingerlings. The currently prevalent IPNV genogroups in China are genogroups 1 and 5. However, in this study, we isolated and identified a novel IPNV, IPNV-P202019, which belonged to genogroup 7. Here, a total of 200 specific-pathogen-free rainbow trout (10 g average weight) were divided randomly into four groups to investigate the distribution of different IPNV strains (genogroups 1, 5, and 7) in 9 tissues of rainbow trout by means of intraperitoneal (ip) injection. Fish in each group were monitored after 3-, 7-, 14-, 21- and 28- days post-infection (dpi). The study showed no mortality in all groups. The distribution of IPNV genogroups 1 and 5 was similar in different tissues and had a higher number of viral loads after 3, 7, or 14 dpi. However, the distribution of IPNV genogroup 7 was detected particularly in the spleen, head kidney, and feces and had a lower number of viral loads. The results of this study provide valid data for the distribution of IPNV in rainbow trout tissues and showed that IPNV genogroups 1 and 5 were still the prevalent genogroups of IPNV in China. Although rainbow trout carried IPNV genogroup 7, the viral load was too low to be pathogenic.

The present study focuses on the phenotypic characterization of several mutants of Flavobacterium psychrophilum, obtained from a transposon mutant library. This Gram-negative bacterium is the etiological agent of the "cold water disease", pathology that usually affects salmonids, mainly Oncorhynchus mykiss. This microorganism is considered a "fastidious bacterium" due to the difficulty to isolate it.

Application of anesthetic chemicals in aquaculture is important to minimize stress under normal operations such as handling, transport, and artificial breeding. In the past decade, the preference for natural anesthetics over synthetic ones has increased due to welfare issues regarding fish welfare and food safety. This study investigates the anesthetic efficacy of nutmeg oil () in three freshwater fish species- (Common carp), (Danube sturgeon), and (Rainbow trout)-by modeling behavioral (Induction and recovery times) and hematological responses using artificial neural networks (ANNs).

Several studies have described immune responses in the teleost brain and meninges during infection, however, fundamental studies that systematically dissect how different regions of the brain maintain immune homeostasis in teleosts are missing. Here we present an in-depth investigation of the immune status of the brain parenchyma and meninges of juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) at the steady state. We dissected four parenchymal brain regions including olfactory bulbs (OB), telencephalon (Tel), optic tectum (OT) and cerebellum (Cer) and its corresponding dorsal meninges.

This study aimed to determine the effects of dietary red ginseng, Panax ginseng powder (RGP), on the growth performance, immunity, antioxidant system, and disease resistance of the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. Eight experimental groups were established, including a control group and seven groups fed varying levels of ginseng powder (5 to 35 g/kg) over 60 days, followed by a challenge with Streptococcus iniae. The results indicated that ginseng supplementation significantly enhanced growth parameters (P < 0.
