Previous studies have recorded Spironucleus torosus Poynton et Morrison, 1990 from several species of gadoid fishes, including the only freshwater gadoid, the burbot Lota lota (L.). Two morphologically different isolates of S. torosus have been described (elongate and pyriform). Both have been found in saltwater, while only the elongate has been found in freshwater. To address the conspecificity of the two morphs of S. torosus, and to identify the source of S. torosus in burbot in Norway, we have sequenced the small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSU rRNA) gene from 43 isolates of S. torosus from six species of gadoid fishes sampled at 15 localities in Norway, Sweden and the Baltic Sea. Phylogenetic analyses of the SSU rRNA gene sequence data recovered two major clades, one containing mainly isolates from burbot, while the other contained isolates from marine gadoid fishes only. The genetic distance (based on 25 nucleotide substitutions in 789 base pairs) separating the two assemblages was not large enough to consider the two groups separate species. Spironucleus torosus isolated from burbot displayed limited genetic variation in the small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSU rRNA) gene along the post-Pleistocene migration route of its host. The present study is the first report of S. torosus in tusk Brosme brosme (Ascanius), whiting Merlangius merlangus (L.), and fourbeard rockling Enchelyopus cimbrius (L.). 相似文献

Histophagous ciliates caused high mortality among turbot in a commercial fish farm in southern Norway. The ciliates spread systemically in fry (< 0.3 g). In the early stages of infection the ciliates were found in connective tissue in skin and fins, as well as in nervous tissue. In terminal stages the whole organism was infected. In large turbot (500–1000 g), the ciliates were predominantly found in the central nervous system, causing liquefaction of the nervous tissue. The ciliates were not identified to species but resembled species in the genus Uronema (Scuticociliatida). 相似文献

The effect of Gyrodactylus salaris on the epidermal structure of hatchery-reared brook trout parr and Norwegian Atlantic salmon parr was evaluated. Both species were initially susceptible to this parasite, but whereas populations on salmon increased until the host died, brook trout responded to, and eventually eliminated, their infections. Salmon skin samples taken 14 days p.i. showed a reduced mucous cell concentration (less than 1500 cells mm–2 on the head compared with 2000 cells mm–2 in controls; the same trend was also seen in other sites) and the epidermis was thinner (48 μm compared with 60 μm on pectoral fins; similar trend seen in other sites) than in uninfected controls kept under identical conditions. Brook trout skin samples were taken 50 days p.i., when the hosts had responded to, and almost eliminated, their infections. No change was then observed in mucous cell density, while the number of epidermal cell layers and the epidermal thickness of brook trout had increased slightly following infection. These results are related to the nature of the host response, and the thinning of the epidermis and loss of mucous cells may in some way be related to the inability of Norwegian salmon parr to respond to the parasite. 相似文献
