Chromosomal assembly of the flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) genome as a new genetic resource for aquaculture [PDF]
The European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) is a native bivalve of the European coasts. Harvest of this species has declined during the last decades because of the appearance of two parasites that have led to the collapse of the stocks and the loss of ...

New insights in flat oyster Ostrea edulis resistance against the parasite Bonamia ostreae [PDF]
Bonamiosis due to the parasite Bonamia ostreae has been associated with massive mortality in flat oyster stocks in Europe. Control of the disease currently relies on disease management practices and transfer restriction. Previously, massal selections based on survival to challenge to infection with B.

Detection of Bonamia ostreae and B. exitiosa (Haplosporidia) in Ostrea edulis from the Adriatic Sea (Italy) [PDF]
The flat oyster Ostrea edulis L. is widespread along the Italian coasts. In particular, the Manfredonia Gulf (Adriatic Sea) represents an important site where natural beds subsist. Previous monitoring conducted in 1990 by light microscopy and ultrastructural studies revealed the presence of Bonamia-like microcell parasites in some flat oysters ...

Detection of the oyster parasite Bonamia ostreae by fluorescent in situ hybridization [PDF]
Bonamia ostreae is an economically significant protistan parasite of the flat oyster Ostrea edulis in Europe and North America. Management of this parasite depends partly upon its reliable identification in wild and aquacultured oyster populations, but B. ostreae is small and difficult to detect by traditional microscopic methods.

Molecular responses of Ostrea edulis haemocytes to an in vitro infection with Bonamia ostreae [PDF]
Bonamiosis due to the parasite Bonamia ostreae is a disease affecting the flat oyster Ostrea edulis. B. ostreae is a protozoan, affiliated to the order of haplosporidia and to the cercozoan phylum. This parasite is mainly intracellular, infecting haemocytes, cells notably involved in oyster defence mechanisms. Suppression subtractive hybridisation (SSH)

Bonamia ostreae in the Native Oyster Ostrea edulis [PDF]
Ireland has a long history of producing and harvesting native flat oysters, Ostrea edulis. At the start of the nineteenth century, almost every bay and harbour, around the coast had abundant beds of native oysters. Intensive dredging to meet the demands of the markets in Dublin and England depleted the stocks, so that in 1845 the government passed ...

Non-Invasive Detection Method for Bonamia Ostreae Infected Ostrea Edulis [PDF]
Populations of the native European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) have been in decline for the past two centuries through a combination of exploitation, disease and climatic events. Ongoing efforts to restore these animals to suitable habitats throughout Europe are increasing in number and magnitude but have been hindered by pathogens such as the protist ...

Detection of Bonamia ostreae Based on Small Subunit Ribosomal Probe
Bonamia ostreae is a protozoan parasite of the flat oyster, Ostrea edulis, which has caused significant loss of oysters in Europe over the last decade. B. ostreae was purified from infected flat oysters and DNA was extracted. The nearly complete small subunit rDNA gene of B. ostreae was amplified using universal oligonucleotides and the PCR product was

Epidemiology of Bonamia ostreae infecting European flat oysters Ostrea edulis from Lake Grevelingen, The Netherlands [PDF]
Production of European flat oysters Ostrea edulis in the Netherlands has been hampered by the presence of the haplosporidian parasite Bonamia ostreae, which is now an enzootic species following its establishment after 1980. We analyzed histopathological data from annual shellfish disease monitoring from 1988 to 2006 to quantify prevalence of B. ostreae
