                <p>The microbiota of fish intestine is the most complex of all organs that interact closely
with the immune system. This can be used as biological control agents that can control the
disease caused by pathogenic bacteria. Thirty isolates were identified based on 16s rRNA gene
sequencing. These bacteria were then tested for their pathogenicity and antagonistic activity.
The bioassay was conducted by administering selected bacteria into the fish and inoculating
with Aeromonas. Total 30 bacterial isolates were successfully isolated from the carp intestine.
Morphology and DNA marker analysis shows wide diversity of bacterial consortium within
the fish intestine. These bacterial community are dominated by Proteobacteria and Firmicutes.
The pathogenicity test showed that 20 isolates were non-pathogenic at a density of 106 cfu/
mL, while the rest were pathogenic to the fish. The antagonistic test showed that some isolates
strongly or mildly inhibit Aeromonas and Vibrio and the rest weakly or do not inhibit the assayed
bacteria. Two isolates (CgM8=Bacillus sp. and CgM37=Bacillus subtilis) are significantly better
than control to protect the fish from Aeromonas infection. Two species of commensal bacteria
originated from fish intestine are potential to be used as biological control agents against
Aeromonas for common carp.
