Abstract	Native to the Pacific Northwest, Ceratomyxashastais a myxosporeanparasite that infects wild and cultivated salmon and has a significance impact on its population in the Klamath River basin. The study suggests that the transmission of mixed genotypes of the parasite are common in Chinook salmon but the age of the fish is not likely to play a role in its susceptibility to infection. In addition, infected age zero Chinook salmon was observed being able to release parasites before death in the form of pre-spores.
