Effect of Ferredoxin Receptor FusA on the Virulence Mechanism of Pseudomonas plecoglossicida.

ABSTRACT: Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is an aerobic Gram-negative bacterium, which is the pathogen of "Visceral white spot disease" in large yellow croaker. P. plecoglossicida is a temperature-dependent bacterial pathogen in fish, which not only reduces the yield of large yellow croaker but also causes continuous transmission of the disease, seriously endangering the healthy development of fisheries. In this study, a mutant strain of fusA was constructed using homologous recombination technology. The results showed that knockout of P. plecoglossicida fusA significantly affected the ability of growth, adhesion, and biofilm formation. Temperature, pH, H₂O₂, heavy metals, and the iron-chelating agent were used to treat the wild type of P. plecoglossi
