Quantitative genetic variation of resistance against Piscirickettsia salmonis in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
2013-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Piscirickettsiosis (Piscirickettsia salmonis) is one of the diseases that cause large economic losses in Chilean salmon industry. Genetic improvement of disease resistance represents one strategy for controlling infectious diseases in farmed fish. However, knowledge of whether genetic variation exists for piscirickettsiosis resistance is needed in order to determine the feasibility of including this trait into the...
