The study of host-parasite interactions using different microscopic methods
Original language description
Eudiplozoon nipponicum (Monogenea) is a blood-feeding parasite from the gills of carp, which due to its unique biological properties, represents an ideal model for studies on diverse biological interactions. Parasite's developmental stages were investigated using combined microscopic approach to identify explicit adaptations to the ectoparasitic life. Diplozoids have evolved a complex mechanism dedicated to attachment to the host and localization on host body that is advantageous for feeding and reproduction. The main attachment system comprises prominent buccal suckers at the ventral site of the parasite's forebody along with the two well-developed muscular haptors, each with four pairs of clamps in two rows and two central hooks, located on the hindbody. Complicated structure of parasite's tegument, including folds and lobular extensions in the middle part of hindbody, supports its firm fixation to the host gills by locking to the gill lamellae.
