Gnotobiotically grown aquatic animals: opportunities to investigate host-microbe interactions
The culture of aquatic organisms is still hampered by the occurrence of unpredictable diseases in their early life stages, which are responsible for massive mortalities and considerable economic losses. A better understanding of the host-microbe interactions is certainly essential to develop effecti...
