Description

Leal and co-authors study how a fish pathogen's type changes its response to drugs, in this 2023 paper. The bacterium harms tilapia farms worldwide. Farms need clear rules for reading drug tests, and none accounted for the bug's types.

Sixty samples, half of each of two types, faced six drugs in disk tests. All proved non-wild-type for two drugs, meaning resistance signs were universal. For two other drugs the types split cleanly, one sensitive and one not. The team set cutoff values that separate normal from resistant strains for each type. The results warn against one-size rules in fish health.
