Experimental susceptibility of Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua (L.), and Atlantic halibut, Hippoglossus hippoglossus (L.), to different genotypes of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus
Abstract Viral haemorrhagic septicaemia (VHS) is a well‐characterized disease of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss , which has also caused economic losses in marine turbot farms in the British Isles. We have previously demonstrated that turbot, Scophthalmus maximus , are susceptible to isolates of...
