The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of dietary level and ratio of n-6/n-3 fatty acids (FA) on growth, disease progression and expression of immune and inflammatory markers in Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) following challenge with Paramoeba perurans . Fish (80 g) were fed four dif...
