| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Soft tunic syndrome is an infectious disease of ascidian in Japan and Korea. Azumiobodo hoyamushi, a kinetoplastid flagellate, is the causative agent of the disease. In this study, we developed a diagnosis method of the disease using microscopy. The microscopic observation could detect the flagellate from asymptomatic ascidians as well as diseased samples although the detection sensitivity was lower than that of PCR. The method is fully useful for simple diagnosis in the field. Also, we analyzed a haplotype network in 11 Japanese and Korean isolates using nucleotide sequence of Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase gene to investigate transmission route of the parasite. There are six haplotype diversities, and they were largely divided into two groups. One is Japanese group, and the other is Korean group and group formed by isolates from both countries. The results suggested existence of Japanese population and the population transmitted from Korea to Japan.
