Bacterial gill disease(BGD) is a major cause of mortality in young cultured freshwater fish worldwide. Given that the pathogen, Flavobacterium branchiophilum, is considered ubiquitous in the freshwater environment, outbreaks of BGD are thought to be precipitated by environmental determinants.... The population at risk for BGD is usually limited to intensively reared fry and small fingerling-sized fish; however, older adolescent and market-size fish can also be affected. 2, record 2, English, - bacterial%20gill%20disease

The CEEB standard score scale was established in 1941 on the basis of the average performance taking the test at that time. Those students were primarily young men and women applying to prestigious and highly selective colleges, which required the test as part of the admission requirement. Now many colleges require the test and a much broader segment of the population is taking the test. 2, record 7, English, - CEEB%20standard%20score%20scale
