Identification of differentially expressed Atlantic salmon miRNAs responding to salmonid alphavirus (SAV) infection

Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) control multiple biological processes including the innate immune responses by negative post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. As there were no studies on the role(s) of miRNAs in viral diseases in Atlantic salmon, we aimed to identify miRNAs respo...
