Ichthyophthirius multifiliis . [PDF]
Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2011 New vaccine candidates were identified targeting the one celled parasite Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, which negatively affects aquaculture freshwater fish productions all over the world. In silico selection with the use of artificial intelligence identified several potential vaccine candidates and three of these were recombinantly expressed using E ...
