Abstract

Enzyme electrophoresis for superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase divided 144 Edwardsiella tarda strains into two groups; group 1 contained all the strains isolated from diseased fish in Japan and group 2 included 25 strains from non-disease sources and reference strain ATCC15947T. These groups could be similarly distinguished by a simple catalase test; group 1 showed an instantaneous bubbling, whereas in group 2 bubbling was delayed or weak. PCR-RFLP analysis usingHhaI revealed that the two groups differed in their 16S rDNA genotypes. Furthermore, this analysis subdivided group 1 into two genotypes.
