| ► Description: |
This is the first comprehensive
collection of molecular techniques for
diagnosing diseases important in the
culture and conservation of salmonid fish.
It brings together leading authors in this
rapidly growing field and provides an
overview of the present state of the art
from the perspective of practical
application of these methods in diagnostic
laboratories. This book will serve as a
useful handbook for diagnosticians and
researchers involved in fish disease,
particularly laboratories establishing
these new diagnostic tests for the first
time, and provides valuable background
information on many of the diseases and
their causative organisms.
