The Way

The anterior flagellum of the zoospores of Phytophthora fragariae, P. megasperma, P. cambivora, Saprolegnia parasitica, Achlya americana, and Pythium aphanidermatum projects straight in front of the zoospore and never moves except during encystment whereas the posterior flagellum is active during the swimming period. In the secondary zoospore the anterior and posterior flagella are attached a short distance apart in the center of the depression on the concave side and respectively pass forward and backward through a groove and form a central axis about which the zoospore rotates. Hyaline vesicles which also have been called beads or paddles form at the base of the flagella at the beginning of encystment and glide part or all the way down the flagella. Movement of flagella after they are released from the zoospore is reported for the first time. Encystment may result from contact stimulus except in the case of Allomyces anomalus. A filament on which vesicles may occur may be secreted or retracted by the Allomyces zoospore.

Oomycetes are fungal-like microorganisms parasitic towards a large number of plant and animal species. Genera from order Saprolegniales, such as Saprolegnia and Aphanomyces, cause devastating infections of freshwater animals. Saprolegnia parasitica is a widely distributed oomycete pathogen that causes saprolegniosis, a disease responsible for significant economic losses in aquaculture, as well as declines of natural populations of fish and other freshwater organisms. Despite its negative impact, no monitoring protocol for S. parasitica has been established to date. Thus, we aimed to develop a droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) assay for the detection and quantification of S. parasitica in environmental DNA samples. Saprolegnia parasitica-specific primers were designed to target internal transcribed spacer region 2 (ITS 2), based on the alignment of ITS sequences of S. parasitica and a range of Saprolegnia spp., as well as other oomycetes. The specificity of primers was tested using genomic DNA of S. parasitica (as positive control) and DNA of non–S. parasitica oomycete isolates, as well as trout/crayfish DNA (as negative control). The primers specifically amplified a segment of the ITS region of oomycete pathogen S. parasitica, while no amplification (i.e. no positive droplets) was obtained for closely related Saprolegnia spp. (e.g. Saprolegnia sp. 1 and S. ferax) and other more distantly related oomycetes. Next, the limit of detection (LOD) of the assay was established by using serial dilutions of the S. parasitica genomic DNA. The determined sensitivity of the assay was high: LOD was 15 fg of pathogen’s genomic DNA per µL of the reaction mixture. Assay performance was further assessed with environmental DNA samples isolated from water from the trout farms and natural environments, as well as (ii) biofilm from the host surface (swab samples). Water samples were collected from 21 different locations in Croatia, while swab samples were collected from S. parasitica host/carrier species: (i) skin and eggs of the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) and brown trout (Salmo trutta Linnaeus, 1758), and (ii) cuticle of signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus Dana, 1852) and narrow clawed crayfish (Pontastacus leptodactylus Eschscholtz, 1823). Samples were classified into agent levels A0 to A6, depending of the number of S. parasitica ITS copies per ng of total DNA. Saprolegnia parasitica was detected in 76 % of water samples (16/21) and the range of pathogen’s ITS copies in positive samples was between 0.02 and 14 copies/ng of total DNA (agent levels A1 to A3). Regarding the swab samples, S. parasitica load was significantly higher in diseased trout than in those with healthy appearance: 9375 vs 3.28 S. parasitica copies/ng of total swab DNA (average agent level A6 vs. A2, respectively). Despite the fact that none of the sampled crayfish had signs of infection, the pathogen was detected in all tested cuticle swabs. Swabs of P. leniusculus, a known S. parasitica host, had significantly higher S. parasitica load than swabs of P. leptodactylus, S. parasitica carrier: 390 vs 83 S. parasitica copies/ng (agent level A5 vs. A4, respectively). In conclusion, our results demonstrate the applicability of the newly developed ddPCR assay in monitoring and early detection of S. parasitica in aquaculture facilities and natural freshwater environments. This would help in a better understanding of S. parasitica ecology and its effects on the host populations.
