Effect of ectoparasite Ichthyophthirius multifiliis on the histopathology and gill and gut microbiota of goldfish (Carassius auratus)
The increased presence of <i>Candidatus Megaira</i> may originate from within the cells of <i>I. multifiliis</i>. The increase of opportunistic pathogens <i>Aeromonas</i> and <i>Achromobacter</i> may pose a threat to the health of goldfish. In summary, this study laid a foundation for further research on the interaction between <i>I. multifiliis</i> and host microbiota.
