flag Scientists study 'mushy fish' parasite affecting Yellowtail Kingfish off Australia's coast.

flag Researchers at Charles Sturt University are studying a parasite causing "mushy fish" in Yellowtail Kingfish and other species off Australia's coast. flag The microscopic parasite, similar to corals and jellyfish, is believed to cause tissue disintegration when cooked, rendering the fish inedible. flag Dr. Jessica Tout-Lyon urges anglers to log catches of mushy fish on the project's website to track the issue's spread. flag Early studies suggest the parasite can be detected even in fish without mushy flesh, indicating a more complex problem.
