Snap frequency of the glochidial valves decreased with an incrcase in MS-222 concentration. Likewise, parasitization success of the larvae on thc gills of G. urotaenia was reduced when thc host fish was exposed to an MS- 222 solution (150 mg^-1L) for five minutes prior to introducing the glochidia to the fish. Metamorphosis succcss (juveniles/free-living larvae ratio) was reduced by 50% when the host fish was anesthetized with MS-222, though thc effect of the anesthetic agent was not detectable statistically. These suggest that glochidial viability and parasitization rate data obtained from previous studies using MS-222 may have contained an artifact.Therefore, future studies on the parasite-host relationship between unionid glochidia and host flshes when MS-222 is used should consider the effect of the anesthetic agent on unionid glochidia.}, pages = {123--130}, title = {タガイ幼生の寄生能力及び変態成功に対する麻酔薬の影響}, volume = {72}, year = {2014} }
