Identification of an Outbreak of Bivalve Transmissible Neoplasia in Soft-Shell Clams ( <i>Mya arenaria</i> ) in the Puget Sound Using Hemolymph and eDNA Surveys

2024-12-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bivalve transmissible neoplasia (BTN) is one of three known types of naturally transmissible cancer— cancers in which the whole cancer cells move from individual to individual, spreading through natural populations. BTN is a lethal leukemia-like cancer that has been observed throughout soft-shell clam ( Mya arenaria ) populations on the east coast of North America, with two distinct sublineages...
