Fitness of wild sockeye salmon unaffected by PRV The respiratory performance of wild Pacific sockeye salmon functions normally even when infected with piscine orthoreovirus (PRV), according to a new study.
PRV was in Canada before salmon farming, says fish vet An experienced North American fish veterinarian has challenged the findings of a scientific study that blames salmon farming as the source of piscine orthoreovirus (PRV) in Pacific wild salmon.
PRV variants have different abilities to harm salmon A new study shows that different variants of PRV (piscine orthoreovirus) have different abilities to induce heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) in salmon.
