摘要：

Aeromonas hydrophila strains isolated from diseased fish in South-East Asia were studied for their virulence in naive tilapia, Oreochromis aureus (Steindachner), and blue gourami, Trichogaster trichopterus (Pallas). Five of the most virulent strains used in this study shared a common resistance to the killing effect of naive fish serum. Other factors such as lack of autoagglutination in 0.2% acriflavine, instability after boiling, production of an S-layer, and proteases and haemolysins did not correlate well with virulence. In addition, serotyping could not group all the virulent strains. Therefore, serum resistance is considered as a good indicator for screening virulence of A. hydrophila strains isolated from diseased fish in South-East Asia.
