Innate immunity in teleosts

我的研究计划和目前短期目标中概述的研究旨在更好地了解鱼类对传染病的天生抵抗力。水产养殖占全世界消费的所有鱼类蛋白的一半以上，传染病是造成产量损失的一个重要原因。水产养殖业是加拿大的成长型产业，未来将继续扩大和支持加拿大的就业机会。鱼类健康的成本效益比(单位产品成本相对较低)要求我们确定天然的抗传染病标志物，以提高存活率，而不是严重依赖抗菌剂或昂贵的产品。虹鲑鱼的两种重要疾病是病毒性出血性败血症病毒(VHSV)和

My research program and the studies outlined in the present short-term objectives are designed to better understand innate resistance of fish to infectious disease. Aquaculture is responsible for more than half of all fish protein consumed worldwide and infectious disease is an important cause of lost production. Aquaculture is a growth industry for Canada and will continue to expand and support Canadian jobs in the future. The cost-benefit ratio (relatively low cost per unit product) for fish health requires that we identify innate markers for resistance to infectious disease to provide enhanced survival, without heavy reliance on antimicrobials or expensive products. Two important diseases of rainbow trout (RT) are viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) and
