Inbreeding_microsat loci_RPawluk

Parasitic sea lice are one of the main causes of economic loss in farmed Atlantic salmon, but the effect of host genetic diversity on sea lice loads is unclear. We examined the association between genetic diversity at neutral and immune-related loci and sea lice in farmed Atlantic salmon sampled at...
