From: Increased ventilation by fish leads to a higher risk of parasitism

Figure 1

Intensity of Diplostomum pseudospathaceum infection and characteristics of ventilation in Oncorhynchus mykiss at three levels of oxygen concentration. Upper panel: number of metacercariae in the fish eyes (bars) and ventilation amplitude (dots) at 30, 60 and 90% oxygen concentration. Lower panel: number of metacercariae (bars) and operculum beat rate, OBR (dots) at 30, 60 and 90% oxygen concentration. Means and SE are shown.
