Our Viva showgirls complete the cast line-up – bringing the moves of the 60s and 70s to the stage bringing the era back to life! Matt Andrews leads our vocal quartet as our tribute to Frankie Valli – telling the story of the band and how they formed the group which took them to the dizzy heights of television appearances, fame and fortune… All performed alongside an amazing trio of vocal talent – Johnny, Michael and Toby who take the roles of Nick Massey, Bob Guardio and Tommy Devito.Ĭomedy host Leye D Johns can’t be kept away from the stage for too long either, bringing a light hearted flavour to proceedings and ensuring the crowd leave with a big smile on their face.

Kudoa thyrsites infections have caused severe post-harvest myoliquefaction in pen-reared Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar), and Ceratomyxa spp., Sphaerospora spp., and Myxidium leei cause disease in pen-reared sea bass ( Dicentrarchus labrax) and sea bream species (family Sparidae) in Mediterranean countries.It’s the show night out not to be missed – wowing crowds in Blackpool since 2014, and now touring the country – OH WHAT A NITE! is a different style of tribute show to any other that you will have seen or heard of before. With a dramatic increase in aquaculture of fishes using marine netpens, several marine myxozoans have been recognized or elevated in status as pathological agents. Epizootics of whirling disease in wild rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss) have recently been reported throughout the Rocky Mountain states of the USA. We also review important diseases caused by myxozoans, which are emerging or re-emerging. Lectin-based and antibody tests have also been developed for certain myxozoans, such as PKX and C. PCR and in situ hybridisation tests based on rDNA sequences have been developed for Myxobolus cerebralis, Ceratomyxa shasta, Kudoa spp., and Tetracapsula bryosalmonae (PKX).

Ribosomal DNA sequences have also enabled development of diagnostic tests for myxozoans. Phylogenetic analyses using all these sequences indicate that:l) the Myxozoa are closely related to Cnidaria (also supported by morphological data) 2) marine taxa at the genus level branch separately from genera that usually infect freshwater fishes 3) taxa cluster more by development and tissue location than by spore morphology 4) the tetracapsulids branched off early in myxozoan evolution, perhaps reflected by their having bryozoan, rather than annelid hosts 5) the morphology of actinosporeans offers little information for determining their myxosporean counterparts (assuming that they exist) and 6) the marine actinosporeans from Australia appear to form a clade within the platysporinid myxosporeans. The 18S rDNA gene of many species has been sequenced, and here we add 22 new sequences to the data set. Also, the life cycle and taxonomy of the enigmatic PKX myxozoan has been resolved: it is the alternate stage of the unusual myxozoan, Tetracapsula bryosahnonae, from bryozoans. The hallmark discovery in the 1980s that the life cycle of Myxobolus cerebralis requires development of an actinosporean stage in the oligochaete, Tubifex tubifex, led to the elucidation of the life cycles of several other myxozoans. First, the phenomenal increase in fin fish aquaculture in the 1990s has lead to the increased importance of these parasites in turn this has lead to intensified research efforts, which have increased knowledge of the development, diagnosis, and pathogenesis of myxozoans. In the last few years two factors have helped to significantly advance our understanding of the Myxozoa.
