Abstract excerpt
Little is known about mechanisms of resistance to parasitic diseases in marine finfish. Benedenia disease is caused by infection by the monogenean parasite Benedenia seriolae. Previous quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses have identified a major QTL associated with resistance to Benedenia disease in linkage group Squ2 of the Japanese yellowtail/amberjack Seriola quinqueradiata. To uncover the bioregulatory...
