Arteriosclerosis in the ventral aorta and epicarditis in the bulbus arteriosus of Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar L)
Abstract Spontaneous mortality of seemingly healthy, farmed Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar L) is an increasing problem in Norwegian aquaculture. In this study, we present a morphological study of the previously undescribed syndrome of arteriosclerosis of the ventral aorta and epicarditis of the adjac...
