The strain marinum was first identified by Joseph D. Aronson in 1926 and it is observed as a pathogenic mycobacterium [3] causing tuberculosis-like infections in fish (mycobacteriosis) and skin lesions in humans. [3] [4] The bacteria grows optimal at a temperature around 30 °C. [4]
Zebrafish larvae are optically transparent and lend themselves to genetic manipulation; by infecting them with their natural pathogen, Mycobacterium marinum, a bacterium that causes tuberculosis in fish and is a close genetic relative of the bacteria that cause tuberculosis in humans, she could carefully track the infection while manipulating ...

Mycobacteria infect many different animals, including birds, [253] fish, rodents, [254] and reptiles. [255] The subspecies Mycobacterium tuberculosis, though, is rarely present in wild animals. [256] An effort to eradicate bovine tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium bovis from the cattle and deer herds of New Zealand has been relatively ...
