Abstract
Edwardsiellosis is an acute to chronic systemic disease in fish characterized by exophthalmia, ascites, hernia, and severe lesions of the internal organs. It is caused by Edwardsiella tarda, a Gram-negative intracellular pathogen implicated in enormous economic losses of cultured seawater and freshwater fish species. E. tarda has a broad host range and geographic distribution, and possesses important virulence factors that enhance its survival and pathogenesis in hosts. This chapter discusses some of the recent research on edwardsiellosis in fish including the etiologic agent's identification, pathology, diagnosis, and virulence factors, and as well as novel strategies aimed at preventing and controlling the disease.
