Synopsis:
At the end of the 1990s, a new and devastating pathological process emerged in turbot aquaculture in Spain, causing the closure of most of the farms producing this flatfish. Here we will report how the etiology and pathogenesis of this problem was revealed from a multidisciplinary approach.
This WebCEPD in organized in partnership with the European College of Aquatic Animal Health.
Learning Objectives:
1. How to go from dogs and pig to fish & chips
2. Introduction to turbot enteromyxosis
3. To highlight the importance of multidisciplinary diagnosis
