<b>Isolation of <i>Saprolegnia aenigmatica</i> oomycetes and protocol for experimental infection of pacu (<i>Piaractus mesopotamicus</i>)

Abstract: Successful disease treatment depends on molecular studies under indoor conditions with experimental infection protocols that facilitate understanding the disease and the drug`s efficacy. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region was sequenced from three isolates, which were identified as Saprolegnia aenigmatica. Subsequently, healthy fish were immunosuppressed with dexamethasone (1.2 mg kg-1) and descaled to the skin using a sharp scalpel. These individuals were isolated in individual aquariums maintained a… Show more

“…All the identified taxa were isolated from freshwater and soil samples using baits as substrate. The majority of the species was found as saprotrophs, however some of them with pathogenic potential in plants and animals (Plaats-Niterink 1981, Sati 1991, Sandoval-Sierra & Diégues-Uribeondo 2015, Carraschi et al 2018, Ferreira et al 2021, Dima et al 2021, with several of them with genic regions made available for the first time in GenBank. Many of them have already mentioned for Brazil (Gomes & Pires-Zottarelli 2006, Mendes et al 1998, Miranda & Pires-Zottarelli 2008, Jesus et al 2013, b, 2018, however we contributed with new taxa for the science and new occurrences for the studied area, São Paulo State or Brazil.…”

“…En ambos trabajos, la mortalidad fue dependiente de la concentración de zoosporas. Carraschi et al (2018) lograron la infección del pacú con S. aenigmatica, mediante tratamientos que incluyeron la inmunosupresión con dexametasona, la descamación del tegumento y la inoculación subcutánea de zoosporas o exposición en baños juanto a semillas con desarrollo de micelio. Finalmente, Singhal et al (1987) produjeron infecciones y altas mortalidades por A. recemosa y S. parasitica en la carpa (C. carpio), el rohu (Labeo rohita (Hamilton)) y el mrigal (Cirrhina mrigala (Hamilton)), después de la extracción de escamas y la inyección de zoosporas o cohabitación con peces previamente infectados.…”

“…Algunos autores también atribuyen al método "ami-momi" un aumento en la mortalidad al inicio de los ensayos de exposición a zoosporas Fregeneda-Grandes et al, 2001). Otros autores utilizaron otros métodos de sensibilización, tales como la erosión del tegumento con remoción de escamas (Singhal et al, 1987;Carballo y Muñoz, 1991;Carballo et al, 1995;Gieseker et al, 2006;Carraschi et al, 2018), aplicación de inmunosupresores (Pickering y Duston, 1983;Carraschi et al, 2018), o un shock de temperatura combinado con abrasión tegumentaria (Howe et al, 1998).…”
