Viral Diseases as a Possible Cause of Salmon Mortality in the North Pacific Ocean
Many viruses have been isolated from wild fish species from marine ecosystems. Whether these viruses can initiate an infection, cause disease, and eventually cause mortality of fish in ocean environments is not well understood. However, mortalities linked to viral infections in cultured marine fish...
