Pancreas disease (PD), caused by salmonid alphavirus (SAV), is a major problem in the Norwegian salmon industry. However, very little is currently known about how factors such as viral virulence, salmon physiology, and salmon immune status influence susceptibility to PD. This project aims to use data generated by the salmon genome sequencing project to develop methods and tools to better understand the immune response of Atlantic salmon to SAV. The major goal of this project is to characterize the host-pathogen interactions during SAV infection. This knowledge will lead to the development of better strategies to combat SAV infection, including improved vaccination strategies and a better understanding of how the smoltification process affects susceptibility to SAV. We aim to study the mechanisms involved at the whole animal, cellular, and molecular level.
