Quantitation of immune response gene expression and cellular localisation of interleukin-1s mRNA in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., affected by amoebic gill disease (AGD)
The characterisation of selected immune response genes during amoebic gill disease (AGD) in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., was performed using semi-quantitative RT-PCR, quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR), and in situ hybridisation (ISH). The immune response genes of interest were interleukin-...
