Abstract
ABSTRACT To characterize intracellular gram-negative bacteria associated with epitheliocystis in farmed Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ), gills with proliferative lesions were collected for histopathology, conventional transmission and immunoelectron microscopy, in situ hybridization, and DNA extraction during epitheliocystis outbreaks in Ireland and Norway in 1999 and 2000, respectively, and compared by ultrastructure and immunoreactivity to nonprol
