Infecções por protozoários em peixes cultivados no Brasil: diagnóstico e patogênese

O filo Protozoa reúne diversos organismos evolutivamente distintos que podem atuar como ecto ou endoparasitos de peixes em todo o mundo, sendo responsáveis por doenças as quais, por sua vez, podem ocasionar impactos econômico e social nos diferentes países. Apesar dos recentes avanços no campo de diagnóstico de doenças em peixes no Brasil, ainda pouco se conhece sobre a fauna de protozoários parasitos de peixes e suas relações com o ambiente e hospedeiro. Esta revisão apresenta os mais importantes protozoários parasitos encontrados em peixes cultivados no Brasil, não apenas com ênfase no seu diagnóstico, biologia, transmissão e relação hospedeiro-parasito, mas também algumas informações que podem ser úteis para pesquisadores para o correto diagnóstico em pisciculturas.
