Figure 5

Gill section of a carp challenged with the HV-isolate at SP 7. Large clumps of bacterial micro-colonies (thick arrows) embedded in an eosinophilic matrix are discerned. Areas of complete architectural loss (asterisk) are noted in close proximity of bacterial clumps. Overall oedema (thin arrows) and total lamellar (L) and filament (F) fusion are apparent (H&E, bar = 50 μm).
