Investigating the genetic basic of Gyrodactylus salaris resistance in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)
Original language description
Gyrodactylus salaris Malmberg, 1957, an ectoparasite living on the skin and fins of salmonids, has had a catastrophic effect on wild Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) stocks in Norway. Understanding the immune response, and the basis for observed resistance in some salmon populations, will play an important part in controlling this parasite. An overview of the experimental approach taken to address these aspects, and some preliminary results obtained, will be presented. Development of molecular markers linked to resistance could be used to introduce heritable resistance to parasites into commercial salmon populations through marker assisted selection methods. Two types of family groups were produced, from Scottish salmon susceptible to G. salaris and from resistant Russian River Neva salmon, and will be used to elucidate the molecular basis for variation in resistance to G. salaris, and to study mechanisms involved in host-parasite interaction. Fish gene expression is being analysed; ge
