Amoebic gill disease (AGD)-affected Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., are resistant to subsequent AGD challenge
There is inconsistent evidence of resistance of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., to amoebic gill disease (AGD). Here, evidence is presented that demonstrates that Atlantic salmon exposed and subsequently challenged with AGD are more resistant than nave control fish. Seventy-three per cent of Atlanti...

There is inconsistent evidence of resistance of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., to amoebic gill disease (AGD). Here, evidence is presented that demonstrates that Atlantic salmon exposed and subsequently challenged with AGD are more resistant than nave control fish. Seventy-three per cent of Atlantic salmon previously exposed to AGD survived to day 35 post-challenge compared with 26% exposed to Neoparamoeba sp. for the first time, yet the gill pathology of surviving nave control or previously exposed fish was not significantly different. Development of resistance to AGD is associated with anti-Neoparamoeba sp. antibodies that were detectable in serum of 50% of surviving Atlantic salmon previously exposed to AGD.
