CRISPR/Cas9 based knockout of genes in SHK-1 cell line, to investigate their role in development of Infectious salmon anemia virus infection
In recent years, we have realized the potential of aquaculture as an industry to meet the goal of rising global food demand in a cost-effective manner, rooted in sustainable and environment friendly practices. Atlantic salmon, as a fish, has a sizeable share in the Norwegian Aquaculture industry and...

In recent years, we have realized the potential of aquaculture as an industry to meet the goal of rising global food demand in a cost-effective manner, rooted in sustainable and environment friendly practices.

Out of the several diseases that affect the health of Atlantic salmon, the viral disease caused by Infectious Salmon Anemia virus is particularly notorious. It is a notifiable disease as per the World Organization for Animal Health and infection with ISAV has known to be difficult to control, causing epizootic episodes that threaten not only threaten the welfare of commercial salmons but also wild populations.
