The impact of Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae and Myxobolus cerebralis co-infections on pathology in rainbow trout

Rainbow trout are collateral casualties in the life cycle of Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae

Proliferative kidney disease (PKD) caused by Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae continues to be a major constraint on the rainbow trout industry in Western Europe and North America. The disease has been estimated to cost the UK trout industry approximately £2.5 million per year and is one of the main research topics in the Aquatic Vaccine Unit. Both short and long-term approaches are being taken to ...

Detection of early stages of Myxobolus cerebralis in fin clips from rainbow trout (Orynchus mykiss).

A nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used to detect early stages of Myxobolus cerebralis in caudal and adipose fin samples from rainbow trout (RT). To determine sensitivity, groups of 10 RT were exposed to 2,000 M. cerebralis triactinomyxons/fish for 1 hour at 15 degrees C and subsequently moved to clean recirculating water. Fish were held for 2 and 6 hours and 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, ...

The effects of Myxobolus cerebralis on the physiological performance of whirling disease resistant and susceptible strains of rainbow trout.

The development of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss strains that are resistant to whirling disease has shown promise as a management tool for populations in areas where Myxobolus cerebralis is present. However, the physiological effects of the disease on characteristics necessary for fish survival in natural river conditions have not been tested in many of these strains. Five rainbow trout str...
