Enteromyxum leei infection levels of gilthead sea bream fed three different diets in T3. a Prevalence of infection (%) for each dietary challenged group (R) by qPCR diagnosis. b Intensity of infection measured by qPCR, the graph shows the mean and standard deviation of the logarithmic transformation of the number of DNA copies of the parasite per gram of fish intestine and individual scores for each dietary group. c Intensity of infection segmented in three categories with equal number of individuals. In the low tercile, different letters among diets indicate statistically significant differences in the mean (ANOVA P < 0.001) and the median (Kruskal-Wallis P = 0.014). d Prevalence of infection (%) per intestinal segment by histological diagnosis. No statistically significant differences were detected in any of the results except at the anterior intestine (*), in which a dependency was found between the diet and the number of infected fish, being D1 and D3 significantly different (Yates’ chi-square P = 0.0064)
