2022-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Tetrahymena pyriformis is a histophagus protozoan ciliate responsible for tetrahymenosis in various aquatic organisms including the tiger barb Puntius tetrazona. The morphology, infraciliature, SSU rRNA and cox 1 gene sequences of T. pyriformis isolated from P. tetrazona from a fish market in Harbin was investigated using living observation and silver staining methods. In addition, an SSU-rDNA-targeted oligonucleo...
