are the main pathogens of white spot disease in marine teleost. However, the occurrence of cryptocaryoniasis is influenced by several abiotic factors including the pH. To explore the effect of pH on the life cycle of (encystment, cleavage, and hatchability), protomonts and tomonts of were incubated in seawater of 10 different pH levels (2-11).

The acute death of infected fish is primarily caused by the destruction of gill cells, resulting in osmotic imbalance and respiratory stress. C.

Epidemiological investigation of teleost susceptibility to Cryptocaryon irritans infection revealed that yellow drum (Nibea albiflora) is highly resistant. In order to further understand the activation of the immune system in the gill, which is one of the main mucosal-associated lymphoid tissues and a target of parasites, transcriptome analysis of the yellow drum gill was performed.

In May 2019, a disease outbreak occurred among small yellow croakers in an aquaculture farm near Xiangshan Bay, charactering by white spots spotted on the surface of fish skin, gills and fins. The parasite was preliminarily identified as Cryptocaryon irritans based on morphological feature of the parasite and the symptoms on fish.

Methods: A Ba/F3 cell line expressing EGFR-insH mutation (Ba/F3-insH cell line) was generated using an IL3-deprivation method. A cell proliferation assay was performed to screen natural compounds that exhibit a synergistic effect with erlotinib.
To explore the resistance mechanism of locally infected skin of yellow drum (Nibea albiflora) against Cryptocaryon irritans infection, N. albiflora were infected with C. irritans at a median lethal concentration of 2050 theronts/g fish.
