  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;The bacterium causing enteric redmouth (ERM) and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Aeromonas salmonicida&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;were found to be equally pathogenic for fingerling Atlantic salmon (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Salmo salar&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;). Injection of 5 × 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;5&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;cells of ERM or&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;A. salmonicida&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;killed all salmon within 96 h. After a 30 min exposure to water-borne cells of the two test bacteria about one-half of the test salmon died within 14 days. Both ERM and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;A. salmonicida&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;were transmitted horizontally. Results indicate that efforts should be made to prevent introduction of ERM into watersheds where Atlantic salmon occur.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
