Outbreaks of fish trypanosomiasis are regularly reported in cultured groupers (Epinephelus spp.), largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), and many other species of Cyprinidae, but only rarely reported in ornamental fish. This study reports a trypano... Read More about First outbreak of trypanosomiasis in farmed blood parrot cichlids (Vieja melanura♀ × Amphilophus citrinellus♂) from southern China.

The apicoplast is a four-membrane plastid found in the apicomplexans, which harbors biosynthesis and organelle housekeeping activities in the matrix. However, the mechanism driving the flux of metabolites, in and out, remains unknown. Here, we used T...
