Additive genetic variation in resistance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to Streptococcus iniae and S. agalactiae capsular type Ib: Is genetic resistance correlated?

2017-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus iniae and S. agalactiae are both economically important Gram positive bacterial pathogens affecting the globally farmed tilapia (Oreochromis spp.). Historically, control of these bacteria in tilapia culture has included biosecurity, therapeutants and vaccination strategies. Genetic gains in performance traits have been realized for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and interest in breeding for dis...
