 Jamaica Gleaner News - WORLD OF WORMS WORLD OF PARASITES! - Thursday | November 17, 2005   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The main obstacle to the success of seawater culture of tilapia - called fresh water snapper - is a parasite called neobenedenia which attaches to the skin of the fish to feed on skin cells and mucus.
Nicola O'Connor, a graduate student in the Department of Life Sciences, studied infected tilapia to determine whether they develop an immune response that would protect them from neobenedenia.
She found that tilapia could, indeed, develop resistance to the parasite, but the problem was that this lasted only a few weeks - not long enough for survival of the fish to harvest time.

 Fish
Some fish may hover in the water with their fins clamped tight against their body.
The eyes may be inflamed - the tremetode Neobenedenia can cause corneal ulceration with eventual functional loss of the eye.
Diseases caused by tapeworms and nematodes are relatively rare in aquaria, because in the majority of cases an intermediate host(s) is required in the worm's life cycle - a stage from which the fish will be isolated in the aquarium.

We discussed the traditional theory of infertile mechanism of mule based on our results, and put forward a suggestion that, to recognize and understand the phenomenon of diversities of hybrids sterility, we should consider comprehensively the influences from the heterogeneous chromosomes and the interaction between heterogeneous cell nuclear and cytoplasm.
