Abstract:
Genarchopsis goppo, a trematode infests the intestine of fresh water fish, Channa striatus. Histopathological changes have been noticed in the intestine of fish due to infection with Genarchopsis goppo. The main objective of this study is to observe histopathological changes that occur in the intestine of fresh water fish, Channa striatus infected with the trematode, Genarchopsis goppo. Histopathological changes include shortening and destruction of villi, vacuolation of sub mucous cells, dilation of blood vessels thickening of muscles and necrosis.
