Characterization of Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV) / K. Garver and J. Wade.: Fs70-5/2017-073E-PDF

"Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV) is a rhabdovirus that can result in the acute systemic disease infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN). The virus is endemic to British Columbia where it has been detected in freshwater and marine life stages of wild Sockeye Salmon as well as in marine cultured Atlantic Salmon. Through controlled laboratory exposure studies, Atlantic Salmon post smolts were shown to be nearly 100 times more susceptible to IHN disease than the native Sockeye Salmon at a similar life stage"--Abstract, p. v.
