Bonamiosis due to the intrahaemocytic protistan parasite Bonamia ostreae is a European endemic disease affecting flat oysters Ostrea edulis. The parasite has been described in different ecosystems from estuaries to open sea and no clear correlations could be demonstrated between the development of the disease and environmental parameters such as temperature or salinity. The parasite life cycle, including its survival outside the host is not completely known. Nevertheless, the infection can be directly transmitted by cohabitation between infected and non infected oysters suggesting that the parasite does not need intermediate host to complete its cycle. In the present study, the impact of temperature and salinity on the survival of purified parasites... |
