Cytophaga is a genus of Gram-negative, gliding, rod-shaped bacteria. This bacterium is commonly found in soil, rapidly digests crystalline cellulose[1]
Species
The following are some species in Cytophaga:
- Cytophaga columnaris — the cause of columnaris disease in salmonid fish, as associated with increased water temperature; it is characterized by white necrotic plaques overlaying skin ulcers; formerly called: Flexibacter columnaris.
- Cytophaga johnsonae — associated with false columnaris disease.
- Cytophaga psychrophila — causes peduncle or cold water disease in Brook trout; predisposed by subnormal water temperature.
