Abstract:

This study, phylogenetic classification was performed by analyzing sequences of the produced SSU rDNA and LSU rDNA primers from the sequences of myxosporean parasites obtained from GenBank (NCBI, USA). The myxosporean was confirmed morphologically. Morphological identification of the microscopic inspection of the fish species suffering from emaciation demonstrated two forms of spore, the first of which was observed to be 16-18 µm long and 4-5 µm wide with two complete polar capsules arranged parallel, anti-parallel or gathered to one side. The other form had smaller spores 5-8 µm in long and 7-9 µm wide. The second spore form had a single polar capsule and was lacked the second polar capsule observed in the first spore form. These spores were morphologically similar to Parvicapsula anisocaudata and Parvicapsula pseudobranchicola n. sp. that identfied in olive flounder farms of Korea. Small subunit ribosomal DNA and large subunit ribosomal DNA primers were selected according to the base sequences of myxosporean parasites, whose data were obtained from GenBank (NCBI, USA) to confirm the cause of local emaciation disease in Korea. According to phylogenetic analysis, four spores isolated from rotten olive flounder were found to belong to Parvicapsula sp. and showed genetic homology of 99.70~99.76%. In addition, gene comparative analysis using GenBank database demonstrated that P. petuniae had a 92% homology in 18S rRNA region. The cause of emaciation disease in olive flounder that occurred domestically has been identified as Parvicapsula sp. through morphological and phylogenetic analysis.
