Lipopeptide surfactant killing of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis: Mode of action
The lipopeptide SPH6 isolated from the bacterial strain Pseudomonas H6 has surfactant properties and shows a lethal effect on all external stages of the problematic gill parasitic ciliate Ichthyopthirius multifiliis. The mode of action has remained enigmatic, but in the present study we have elucidated the mechanisms. I.

The aquaculture industry is increasingly transitioning toward sustainable aquafeeds, driven by the economic and environmental necessity to replace marine‐derived fishmeal and fish oil with plant‐ and insect‐based alternatives. This nutritional shift introduces physiological challenges, accelerating the search for natural, sustainable functional ...

Diplostomum‐Induced Sac Formation in Lenses of Ameiurus Bullheads: A Host Defence Response?
ABSTRACT Trematodes of the genus Diplostomum (Diplostomidae) are widely distributed and significant fish pathogens known for causing a range of negative effects. Any mechanism that protects the host from the parasite thus represents an evolutionary advantage.

Spotted snakehead (Channa punctata) naturally infected with Saprolegnia spp. were confirmed by clinical signs, wet mount examination and histopathology. In the therapeutic trial using various chemotherapeutics, elevated temperature combined with 2% NaCl (T4) resulted in the highest survival rate (70%). ABSTRACT Saprolegniasis, caused by Saprolegnia spp.

Abstract River connectivity is crucial for the European eel (Anguilla anguilla) to complete its complex life cycle, which is vital for upstream recruitment to the declining population of this critically endangered catadromous fish. Eel passes, or ladders, are frequently installed on riverine structures, such as dams and weirs, to mitigate barrier ...
