Proliferative kidney disease (PKD) of salmonids, a chronic immunopathology caused by the myxozoan parasite Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, is exacerbated by increased water temperatures. PKD causes economic concerns to trout farmers and contributes to the decline of wild salmonid populations in North America and Europe. The parasite occurs as far north as Norway and Iceland in Europe and was confirmed from California to southern British Columbia in the American continent. In mid-September 2011 adult chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) were sampled from Kantishna River, a tributary to Yukon River in Alaska. Clinical PKD was diagnosed based on the macroscopic appearance of mottled kidneys that were uniformly swollen and by the detection of tumultuous histozoic extrasporogonic and coelozoic sporogonic stages of T. bryosalmonae in renal tissue by histopathology. Archived samples provided the molecular confirmation and local strain identification, representing the first confirmed case of PKD in wild adult chum salmon, also co-infected with Parvicapsula minibicomis that represents another novel myxozoan detection in Alaska. Our investigation was extended to another case from August/September 1997, with mortality following furunculosis and ectoparasite co-infections, in sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) pre-smolts net-pen reared in English Bay Lakes, Alaska. Immunohistochemistry on archived histological preparations confirmed T. bryosalmonae sporogonic and extrasporogonic stages, indicating a severe to resolving PKD, with concomitant Chloromyxum spp. infection. Those cases provide the first documentation that this parasite is present in Alaska and causes PKD in wild and cultured salmonids in the region. The known geographic range of T. bryosalmonae can be extended to similar to 267 km south of the Arctic Circle, representing the northernmost detection in America. Given the vast size of Alaska and small resident population, it is likely that T. bryosalmonae remained undetected, but more recently became evident due to the clinical manifestation of PKD, possibly linked to increasing water temperatures reported at the sample locations.
