Innovation TitleVertical transmission of tilapia lake virus (TiLV) demonstrated
Innovation description Research findings suggested that Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) causes systemic infection in tilapia broodstock with the virus being able to spread into the reproductive organs. Subsequently, the fertilized eggs produced by infected broodstock tested positive for TiLV. The results of this study suggests, for the first time, that TiLV can be transmitted vertically and provides the basis for development of recommendations to manage risks in tilapia hatchery operations.
