PATHOLOGICAL AND PATHOBIOLOGY OF EPIZOOTIC ULCERATIVE SYNDROME (EUS) CAUSING ASPERGILLUS FUMIGATUS AND ITS IMMUNOLOGICAL RESPONSE IN FRESHWATER FISH OF CHANNA STRIATUS
Author(s): Podeti Koteshwar Rao*
Aspergillus fumigates is an oomycyte fungi most frequently recognized as a causative agents of epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) it is a seasonal and epidemic pathogens of great important in cultured fishes in both freshwater and estuarine environments. EUS is a complex infectious etiology which leads to necrosis ulcerative lesions and granulomatous response in freshwater fishes of Channa striatus. This is the cause of death of approximately 92 species that has been recorded in wild as well as in commercial culture systems worldwide. Different environmental and biological factors are responsible for the growth and establishment of A. fumigatus, which is further, attracts secondary pathogens to enter the lesions thus, increasing the severity of the fungal infection. The proper methods for identification of A. fumigatus, includes PCR detection and light microscopy. In order to discove.. View More»
