Description
Fig. 5. (A) and (B) Muscle section from lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus, fixed 24 h post mortem. (A) Ruptured Kudoa plasmodia with subsequent liberation of mature spores causing focal necrosis of the muscle fibre enveloping the plasmodium. (B) Higher magnification showing liberated spores (arrows) and a focal necrosis in the vicinity of the spores (asterisk). (C) Muscle section of an uninfected fish at approx. 48 h p.m. (D) Section of muscle of a heavily infected fish at approximately 48 h p.m. showing extensive myoliquefaction (asterisk). (E) A close up of the affected area showing numerous Kudoa spores (arrowhead) and the associated liquefactive necrosis. Scale bars: (A) = 50 µm, (B) = 10 µm, (C) and (D) = 200 µm, (E) = 10 µm. Abbreviations: MF = Muscle fibres, AC = Adipocytes.
