Ultrastructure of Interlamellar Henneguya exilis in the Channel Catfish

Abstract: Ultrastructural aspects of interlamellar Henneguya exilis infections in channel catfish are reported. The plasmodium wall of this form differs from that of other species in that it is composed of two outer unit membranes which give rise to a zone of numerous pinocytic canals. Single-membraned canals appeared to be a stable feature of the wall while double-membraned canals are interpreted as those actively carrying out pinocytosis. Evidence suggests that host cellular cytoplasm as well as interstitial material … Show more

“…A similar organization of the plasmodial surface has been described in Henneguya listerine (Hallett & Diamant 2001) and for the interlamellar plasmodia of Henneguya exilis (Current & Janovy 1976). In H. exilis, regions of the plasmodial surface are in direct contact with the host cells, with the cytoplasm of the host cell appearing to pass into pinocytic canals of the plasmodial wall (Current & Janovy 1976).…”

“…The plasmodial wall of Henneguya piaractus consisted of a single membrane, as in other myxosporean species (Current & Janovy 1978, Current 1979, Hallett & Diamant 2001, Dohole et al 2002, and contained pinocytic canals that extended into the plasmodial ectoplasm, as also seen in several other Henneguya species (Current & Janovy 1976, Current 1979, Rocha et al 1992, Hallett & Diamant 2001, Azevedo & Matos 2002, El-Mansy & Bashtar 2002. However, there was no coat, nor was the wall surrounded by a capsule of collagen fibres.…”

“…The plasmodial wall of the present species consisted of two membranes with pinocytotic channels, which was similar to that of Henneguya exilis (Current and Janovy 1977) and Myxobolus sp. (Desser and Paterson 1978).…”
