| Abstract |
In recent years, tilapia has become the prime domesticated species in fish
culture in many countries. Due to easy breeding, high productivity and
palatability and strong tolerance of environmental factors, the farming of
tilapia has proved to be a worthy economic enterprise in Taiwan. However,
as culture activity increases, the risk of diseases runs high. In the past
three years there were several outbreaks of diseases of tilapia which
caused high mortality rates (unpublished data) and it was possible that a
virus infection may have been the cause. In order to investigate tilapia
viruses, a cell line derived from homogenous tissues is urgently needed.
The present paper describes the establishment of a cell line from kidney
of healthy tilapia.
