The occurrence of intestinal infections due to microsporidia in European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) farmed in Italy is described. The infected fish showed emaciation and low growth rate associated with a low level mortality. Morphological, histological and molecular analysis suggest that the microsporidian is a member of the genus Loma.

Abstract
The occurrence of intestinal infections due to microsporidia in European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) farmed in Italy is described. The infected fish showed emaciation and low growth rate associated with a low level mortality. Morphological, histological and molecular analysis suggest that the microsporidian is a member of the genus Loma.File in questo prodotto:
