Genetic variation of resistance to amoebic gill disease in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) assessed in a challenge system

2007-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is the most serious health problem affecting the culturing of Atlantic salmon in Tasmania. A selective breeding project is selecting for AGD resistance amongst other important commercial traits. This paper presents the first assessment of genetic variation associated with resistance or susceptibility to AGD, and reports on a comparison of three measures of AGD infection leading to a reco...
