Genetic Diversity of Serine Protease Inhibitors in Myxozoan (Cnidaria, Myxozoa) Fish Parasites
Microorganisms, 2020 We studied the genetic variability of serine protease inhibitors (serpins) of Myxozoa, microscopic endoparasites of fish. Myxozoans affect the health of both farmed and wild fish populations, causing diseases and mortalities. Despite their global impact,

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.Using 18S rDNA metabarcoding of stomach contents from two Antarctic nototheniid fishes, we detected 242 parasite OTUs. Protists dominated diversity, metazoans dominated abundance, and depth structured assemblages. Novel parasite–host associations and previously unreported pathogenic protists highlight fish metabarcoding as a tool for biodiversity and ...
