Abstract

The natural pathway of viral hemorrhagic septicemia (VHS) virus penetration in trout is unknown. Fish pathologists suspect the gill as a possible route for virus entry into the fish. Some results obtained with another rhabdoviral model, the spring viremia of carp, showed that the gill can play an important role in viral pathogeny [1].
