Abstract

Su ürünleri yetiştiriciliği sektörü ve flamingolar (Phoenicopterus roseus) gibi yabani hayvan popülasyonları için temel gıda kaynaklarından biri Artemia'dır (Artemia parthenogenetica). Son yıllarda farklı tuzlalardan gelen vaka ve raporların artmasıyla birlikte Artemia sestod parazitizminin yaygınlığı arttığı görülmektedir. Flamingolepis liguloides yumurtaları Artemia tarafından tüketilir ve son konakçı flamingolarda yetişkin solucanlara dönüşen sistiserkoidlere dönüşür. Bu çalışma Ayvalık tuzlasındaki (Balıkesir, Türkiye) A. parthenogenetica'nın doğal popülasyonlarındaki sestod parazitizminin ilk araştırmasıdır. Toplam 965 A. parthenogenetica incelendi ve bunların 320'sinde F. liguloides enfeksiyonu görüldü. Genel prevalans %33,2 olarak hesaplandı. Parazitlerin çoğu A. parthenogenetica'nın toraks, karın ve bağırsak kanalında bulundu. Parazit yoğunluğu birey başına 1 ila 4 arasında değişmekle birlikte tek bir Artemia örneğinde maksimum 4 sistiserkoid tespit edildi. Ayvalık tuzlasından bildirilen bu ilk rapor, Artemia'da F. liguloides istilası hakkında bilgi vermektedir ve tuzlalardaki türler arasındaki etkileşimler ayrıntılı şekilde araştırılmalıdır.

Parasitological investigation of Artemia parthenogenetica: A Cestode case from Ayvalık Saltwork

Abstract

One of the primary food supplies for the aquaculture sector and wild animal populations, such as flamingos (Phoenicopterus roseus), is Artemia (Artemia parthenogenetica). Along with the rise in cases and reports from different salterns in recent years, the prevalence of Artemia cestode parasitism has also grown. Flamingolepis liguloides eggs are consumed by Artemia and transform into cysticercoids which mature into adult worms in the final host, flamingos. We described the first investigation of cestode parasitism in the natural populations of Artemia parthenogenetica from the Ayvalık saltwork (Balıkesir, Türkiye) in this study. A total of 965 A. parthenogenetica were examined and 320 of them had F. liguloides infection. The overall prevalence was estimated to be 33.2%. Most of the parasites were found in the abdomen and intestinal tract of A. parthenogenetica. Parasitism intensity ranged from 1 to 4 per individual, with a maximum of 4 cysticercoids detected in a single Artemia sample. To understand the influence of parasitism on Artemia populations and the transmission of species, it is important to establish Artemia parasitism in the saltwork. This initial report from the Ayvalık saltwork provides information on the infestation of F. liguloides in Artemia; therefore, the interactions between the saltworks’ species should be investigated in depth.
