چکیده

A study was conducted to evaluate the pathogenicity and pathology of Achlya proliferoides BSN-M005 and Saprolegnia diclina BSN-M003, isolated from saprolegniosis outbreaks against immature stages of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus. The cumulative mortality rates of the tested fish groups that exposed to high zoospore concentrations of A. proliferoides BSN-M005 and S. diclina BSN-M003 were 60 and 100% respectively. The histopathological changes associated with saprolegniosis lesions induced by S. diclina BSN-M003, were loss of the epidermis, edema of the hypodermis, different degrees of degenerative changes in the underling musculature and the fungal elements were observed penetrating the entire musculature. On the other hand, the histopathological changes associated with saprolegniosis lesions induced by A. proliferoides BSN-M005 showed mats of hyphae attached the surface of epidermis, necrosis, degenerative changes close to hyphae and sometimes fungal elements were observed penetrate into dermal layer but never reach the underling musculature. It is clear from our results that S. diclina BSN-M003 is highly pathogenic than A. proliferoides BSN-M005 to Nile tilapia.

Protective role of adjuvant and potassium permanganate on oxidative stress response of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) challenged with Saprolegnia ferax

Saprolegniosis are one of the most important oomycetes affecting freshwater fish worldwide. It leads to huge losses in fish farms due to their massive destruction to the fish epidermis leading to sever heamodilution and death, yet little literature studied the oxidative stress response regarding the saprolegniosis. Nile tilapia fish were subcutaneously abraded and divided into four groups: cont...

Skin and subcutaneous mycoses in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) caused by Fusarium oxysporum in coinfection with Aeromonas hydrophila

Subcutaneous mycoses in freshwater fish are rare infections usually caused by oomycetes of the genus Saprolegnia and some filamentous fungi. To date, Fusarium infections in farmed fish have only been described in marine fish. Here, we report the presence of Fusarium oxysporum in subcutaneous lesions of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Histopathologic evaluation revealed granuloma formation...
