Abstract Objective This study was aimed to assess the effect of a novel postbiotic on bacterial community composition and structure within the intestinal ecosystem of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), as well as evaluate its capacity to protect rainbow trout from Lactococcus garvieae infection. Results After 30 days of dietary postbiotic supplementation, high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that bacterial community composition, diversity and richness were significantly higher in treated fish than in control fish. The proportion of sequences affiliated to the phylum Tenericutes, and to a lesser extent, the phyla Spirochaetes and Bacteroidetes was increased in fish fed a postbiotic-enriched diet

compared to control fish, whereas the abundance of Fusobacteria was higher in control fish. Moreover, the treated fish showed significantly (p \ 0.05) improved protection against L. garvieae compared to control fish. Conclusions These findings suggest that dietary postbiotic supplementation may represent an environmentally friendly strategy for preventing and controlling diseases in aquaculture.

Introduction

Materials and methods

Lactococcosis is a disease caused by Lactococcus garvieae, which is responsible for severe economic losses in farmed marine and freshwater fish species (Vendrell et al. 2006; Gibello et al. 2016; Meyburgh et al. 2017). Disease outbreaks are usually treated with vaccines or antibiotics. Although vaccination has proven effective in protecting fish from lactococcosis, this immunity lasts a short period of time or the process is often ineffective when applied to immunologically immature fish (Ravelo et al. 2006; Embregts and Forlenza 2016). Moreover, the use of antibiotics should be limited due to the increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (Cabello et al. 2013; Santos and Ramos 2018). Consequently, new environmentally-fri
