Abstract excerpt
Heritable variation in resistance to pathogens has been reported in many fish species, but little is known about its genetic architecture. To extend understanding, an investigation was made of the association of resistance to proliferative kidney disease (PKD) in 4 second filial generation (F2) families of Atlantic salmon with molecular markers from different genetic linkage groups in the species' genome,...
