Clubbing and necrosis gill (CNG) syndrome in sea-caged Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L ., in Tasmania: an initial report
In autumn 1993, an outbreak of gill disease occurred in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., smolts farmed in the Huon estuary in southern Tasmania, Australia. Histologically, the presumptive primary lesion appeared as focal, sometimes full thickness, gill necrosis, which showed no host reaction in the...
