Global transmission map of Piscine orthoreovirus.
Piscine orthoreovirus (PRV) - which is associated with kidney and liver damage in Chinook salmon is continually being transmitted between open-net salmon farms and wild juvenile Chinook salmon in British Columbia waters, according to a new genomics analysis published today in
Science Advances.
The collaborative study from the University of British Columbia (UBC) and the Strategic Salmon Health Initiative (SSHI) a partnership between Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO), Genome BC and the Pacific Salmon Foundation traces the origins of PRV to Atlantic salmon farms in Norway and finds that the virus
is now almost ubiquitous in salmon farms in B.C.
