Abstract excerpt
The half-smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) is an economically important marine fish in China, but its vulnerability to visceral nodular disease (VND) caused by Mycobacterium marinum poses a significant threat to aquaculture. Based on traditional breeding methods, it is slowly to improve disease tolerance and then may lead to inbreeding depression. This study aimed to accelerate the development of...
