Quantitative polymerase chain reaction offers improved diagnostic and analytical sensitivity in identifying differential microsporidium (Loma morhua) infections among family lines of cultured Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
2020-10-01
Abstract excerpt
The failed attempt to establish Atlantic cod as an alternate aquaculture species in eastern Canada is due in part to hatchery outbreaks of the microsporidium Loma morhua during selective breeding programs. The sporadic nature of microsporidian epizootics during fish culture emphasizes the need for streamlined quantitative diagnostic approaches that help promote development of disease mitigation strategies. The cur...
