Epidemiological aspects of infectious salmon anemia
Infectious salmon anemia is an orthomyxyviral disease posing a serious challenge to the aquaculture of atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). The virus causes severe disease resulting in high moratlity and significant costs to the industry. Several factors, natural and human induced, have been studied as to...

Infectious salmon anemia is an orthomyxyviral disease posing a serious challenge to the aquaculture of atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). The virus causes severe disease resulting in high moratlity and significant costs to the industry. Several factors, natural and human induced, have been studied as to their proposed role in the spread of the ISA-virus and its impact on salmon farming. Spread by equipment and fish movement is well substantiated. Equally substantial is the impact of geographical relations between farms, processing boat lanes, processing plants and other farms.
