Virological screening of wild and farmed fish species: Application of innovative Taqman multiplex real-time PCR protocols

  • Authors: Andreia Filipa-Silva, Ricardo Parreira, Mónica Nunes, Maria Teresa Barreto Crespo
  • Publication Year: 2021
  • Journal: Aquaculture, vol 54015, art 736693
  • Link: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aquaculture.2021.736693

ABSTRACT Global demand for seafood is growing and fish stock maintenance becomes a pressing issue, making aquaculture production of capital importance in terms of fish resources sustainability. Therefore, fish disease outbreaks are a significant constraint to fisheries trade and aquaculture production, affecting economic development worldwide. In this study, a virological screening in wild and farmed fish […]
