Blue Bio Database - Database of Fisheries, Aquaculture, Seafood Processing and Marine Biotechnology Projects

The available database comprises research projects in Fisheries, Aquaculture, Seafood Processing and Marine Biotechnology active in the time period 2003-2022.
BlueBio is an ERA-NET COFUND created to directly identify new and improve existing ways of bringing bio-based products and services to the market and find new ways of creating value from in the blue bioeconomy.

Summary	This project will i) generate and use spatio-temporal epidemiological data, phylogeographic data and gene expression data for important host-viral pathogen systems to identify important factors affecting the spread of diseases in aquaculture, and ii) integrate these in scenario simulation models to assess effects of various control strategies for selected host-pathogen systems. The purpose of the project is to increase knowledge on transmission, prevention and control of viral diseases in aquaculture and d evelop a generic approach to viral disease control by using information on epidemiological and physiogenetical attributes from several important aquatic animal viruses.The specific objectives are: 1) Collection of isolates of specific important aquatic animal viruses and their respective epidemiological data (from as wide host ranges, broad geographic distributions and variable pathogenicities as possible), 2) Characterisation of the isolates by phylogenetic and expression analyses and 3) Constructing scenario simulation models to assess effects of different control strategies.
