Genetic variation in the humoral immune response against Vibrio salmonicida and in antibody titre against Vibrio anguillarum and total IgM in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).

Abstract excerpt

Total IgM level and antibody titre to Vibrio anguillarum O-antigen after bath-vaccination, and specific antibody response to V. salmonicida O-antigen at three different samplings were analysed in family material of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), consisting of 791 fish belonging to 34 maternal full-sib groups within 12 paternal half-sib groups. The fish were immunized twice, and blood samples collected three...
