In our search for alternatives to control the disease, we analyzed class II polymorphic genes of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) in juvenile fish trying to find alleles that may confer resistance or susceptibility to the agent in the three major salmonid species cultured in Chile: Salmo salar, Oncorhynchus...
