Descripción
The purpose of this study was to compare the parasites of two coexisting bivalves, the edible Puelche oyster (Ostrea puelchana) and the false oyster (Pododesmus rudis) that lives attached to O. puelchana shells, and to investigate their host specificity. Samples from wild populations, 465 O. puelchana and 131 P. rudis, were collected seasonally during two years in the San José Gulf (northern Patagonia, Argentina) and were processed using standard histological techniques. To increase the natural low prevalences of Bonamia spp. and Perkinsus spp. that are present in wild populations, an in situ experiment was performed by maintaining captive sentinel bivalves at high densities inside a plastic mesh bag to enhance parasite transmission. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays were used to test for apparent Bonamia sp. infections among captive sentinel O. puelchana specimens (n = 80), and Ray's fluid thioglycollate medium (RFTM) assays and histological immunoassays tested for apparent Perkinsus sp. infections among captive sentinel P. rudis specimens (n = 100). Despite histological observations that revealed the presence of microcells resembling Bonamia sp. infecting hemocytes of some Puelche oysters, PCR assays did not confirm that parasite identification. Among captive sentinel P. rudis that showed histological evidence of Perkinsus sp. infections, neither RFTM nor immunoassays confirmed such parasites. Ostrea puelchana from wild populations were occasional hosts for both Rickettsia-like organism (RLOs) and Urastoma-like turbellarians. In contrast, six parasite taxa infected P. rudis from coexisting populations, including RLOs, Urastoma-like turbellarians, an intracellular gregarine species, Nematopsis-like oocysts, an unidentified coccidian and a Perkinsus qugwadi-like protozoan. These results demonstrated specific infection patterns of the identified parasites in relation to their hosts.
