Atlantic Salmon
Summary:
Representative survival curve of cohab fish post introduction of Trojan fish infected with IPNV via intraperitoneal injection.
Identification of Moen SNP4 associated with IPNV-resistance using restriction digestion and melt curve analysis. All products create two melt peaks (derivatives 1 and 2) to provide a derivative ratio that predicts homozygote C (high derivative ratio), heterozygote CT (medium derivative ratio), and homozygote T (low ratio).
