The article focuses on a study which developed a model for ceratomyxosis-induced mortality in Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, along with the identification of the parameters that are relevant to the persistence of myxozoan parasite Ceratomyxa shasta in Klamath River, California. The study also experimentally quantified actinospore dose and the parasite-induced mortality from such dose. Study authors described the myxospore transmission, polychaete infection and actinosphere transmission among O. tshawytscha. They concluded that their findings are relevant to understanding the ecological implications of environmental and genetic differences in ceratomyxosis-induced mortality in O. tshawytscha. |
