The aim of this research was study of stress indices in response to Monogenean infection in Grass carp, Ceteopharyngodon idella. In this regard, some stress indices were measured in two adult groups of Grass carp including healthy and infected fish. According to our results, the values of cortisol and glucose and lactate were significantly higher in infected fishes than healthy individuals. Elevation of cortisol and glucose demonstrated the existence of stressful condition caused by parasitic infection and demands for energy for adaptation. In conclusion, our results showed that Monogenean infection by Gyrodactylus spp. and Dactylogyrus spp. affects health condition of Grass carp through alternation of stress components.
本研究的目的是研究草鱼(Ceteopharyngodon idella)对单殖吸虫感染的应激指标。在这方面,对两组成年草鱼(包括健康鱼和感染鱼)的一些应激指标进行了测量。根据我们的结果,感染鱼的皮质醇、葡萄糖和乳酸值显著高于健康个体。皮质醇和葡萄糖的升高表明寄生虫感染导致了应激状态,以及适应所需的能量需求。总之,我们的结果表明,三代虫属(Gyrodactylus spp.)和指环虫属(Dactylogyrus spp.)的单殖吸虫感染通过改变应激成分影响草鱼的健康状况。
