Blood parameters and parasitic load in Sardinops sagax (Jenyns, 1842) from Todos Santos Bay, Baja California, Mexico

ABSTRACT: Some studies have characterized and evaluated the parasitic load of the Pacific sardine. However, there are few studies related to its physiology and parasites load. This study aimed to evaluate the blood parameters and the abundance of helminth parasites of sardines obtained from two samp...
