Transcript
IHN Virus IHNV (Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus) is one of the most important pathogens of salmon and trout in the Pacific Northwest. The virus is transmitted via direct contact or via a contaminated water source, through mucus, feces, urine, and sperm. Signs of infection include swollen abdomen, anemia, and hemorrhaging near the fins and mouth. Prof JoAnn Leong (OSU Microbiology) conducted much of the foundation work to develop the only approved DNA vaccine against the virus.
