Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Flavobacterium columnare is the pathogen agent of columnaris disease, a major emerging disease that affects rainbow trout aquaculture. Selective breeding using genomic selection has potential to achieve cumulative improvement of the host resistance. However, genomic selection is expensive partly because of the cost of genotyping large numbers of animals using high-density single nucleotide...
