| Popis: | An epidemiological cohort study of Enteromyxum scophthalmi in cultured turbot was performed on a farm in North Western Spain. Four different ongrowing stocks (A, B, C, D) were monitored monthly until market size. Fish from stocks C and D were divided into 2 subgroups, receiving filtered (CF and DF) or unfiltered (CUF and DUF) water. The lack of water filtration was positively associated with infection prevalence, as all fish kept in filtered water remained uninfected. Parasite abundance varied seasonally (P Funding for this study was provided by the EU and the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología through research grants FEDER 1FD97-0679-C02-01 and AGL2001-2241-C02-01. Additional support was obtained from Stolt Sea Farm S. A. We are grateful to J. Monfort from IATS and C. M. Carreira from the School of Veterinary Medicine of Lugo for histological processing. |
