Tilapia lake virus downplays innate immune responses during early stage of infection in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Abstract Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) causes high mortality and high economic losses in tilapines. We describe an experimental challenge study focusing on early post challenge innate immune responses. Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were infected with 105 TCID50/mL TiLV intraperitoneally, followed...
