Mass mortality occurred at an Anguilla japonica eel farm equipped with a recirculating aquaculture system in Gimcheon, Korea, from late spring to early summer 2015. The cumulative 3-month mortality was 16% (approximately 24,300-150,000 fish). The majority of affected fish displayed ulcerative lesions that progressed to petechial haemorrhages and small white granulomas in the major organs.

- A PCR assay was developed to specifically target and detect Kudoa iwatai in rock bream, a key aquaculture species in Korea.
- The assay has a detection limit of 2.5 fg/μl with plasmid DNA and could distinguish K. iwatai from other Kudoa species.
- Out of 318 rock bream examined, only 3 cultured fish tested positive for K. iwatai, showing a 1.2% prevalence, while no wild fish showed the infection.
