Abstract excerpt
The intergenic spacer (IGS) region of ribosomal RNA genes was amplified and sequenced from a variety of Gyrodactylus specimens collected from wild and farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar, rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, and grayling Thymallus thymallus, from various locations in Northern Europe. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences confirmed the distinction between G. salaris Malmberg, 1957 and G. thymalli...
