Genetic diversity of Saprolegnia isolated from salmonid fish in Canada, Chile, Japan, Norway and Scotland

چکیده
Saprolegnia species are oomycetes (watermolds), which are fungal-like filamentous eukaryotes, that are closely related to chromophyte algae (Baldauf 2003), and are capable of infecting multiple hosts (Sarowar et al. 2013). The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and sequence data of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) methods were used to study the genetic diversity and relationships of Saprolegnia spp. collection from Canada, Chile, Japan, Norway and Scotland. AFLP analysis of 37 Saprolegnia spp. isolates using six primer combinations gave a total of 163 clear polymorphic bands.

Piscirickettsia salmonis is a facultative intracellular Gram-negative bacterium (Mauel, Ware & Smith 2008; Mikalsen et al. 2008) originally isolated from fish in Chile and constitutes one of the main problems in farmed salmonids and marine fish worldwide (see reviews by Almendras & Fuentealba 1997; Mauel & Miller 2002; Fryer & Hedrick 2003). This fastidious pathogen was first observed in southe...

Saprolegnia isolates within the recognized clades encompassing the taxa S. parasitica and S. diclina act as opportunist and aggressive pathogens to both fish and their eggs. They are responsible for significant economic losses in aquaculture, particularly in salmonid hatcheries. However, the identity, distribution and pathogenic significance of involved species often remain unexplored. In this ...

Fungal infection in the eggs of freshwater fish is well known as a problematic disease. The aim of the present study was to isolate and identify parasitic and saprophytic fungi from affected eggs of rainbow trout at two fish hatchery in Kermanshah province. The sample were inoculated in culture media (SDA,CMA,GPA and stilled water with cotton seed culture) at room temperature (18-24 ° C).17 s...

Flavobacterium psychrophilum is the causative agent of bacterial cold water disease (BCWD), which affects a variety of freshwater-reared salmonid species. A large-scale study was performed to investigate the genetic diversity of F. psychrophilum in the four Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. Multilocus sequence typing of 560 geographically and temporally disparate F. psychr...
