The quahog parasite unknown, or QPX, is a single-celled protist parasite in the class Labyrinthulomycota that affects hard clams (Mercenaria mercenaria; quahogs), both cultured and wild. Parasites similar to QPX were first observed in New Brunswick, Canada, in 1959, when a mass death of hard clams was observed. Outbreaks have also occurred in Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Virginia, always only in quahog clams. Symptoms of QPX include chipping of the shells, mantle swelling, stunted shell growth and the development of nodules.

  • Mit Quahog parasite unknown, kurz QPX, wird ein einzelliger Parasit der Nördlichen Venusmuschel (Mercenaria mercenaria) bezeichnet. Wirt und Parasit kommen an der nordamerikanischen Ostküste vor, nördlich ist der Einzeller vor New Brunswick, Nova Scotia und Prince Edward Island (Kanada) und südlich bis Virginia nachgewiesen. QPX ist seit den 1990er Jahren Gegenstand von Forschungen, da er Aquakulturen der Muschel durch vielfachen Tod der infizierten Tiere wirtschaftlich schädigen kann. (de)
