Quantitative and molecular genetics of larval susceptibility to Vibrio tubiashii in Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas)

Creator:

Chen, Chao

Abstract:

Vibriosis caused by the bacterial pathogen Vibrio tubiashii is one of several factors contributing to mass larval mortalities of the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) in Pacific Northwest shellfish hatcheries in recent years. Genetically improved strains of the Pacific oyster resistant to V. tubiashii would be highly desirable. This study investigates...
