Parisa Norouzitallab et al. Trends Biotechnol. 2019 Jan.

Abstract

A paradigm shift in our understanding of shrimp immunity offers the potential to develop novel disease-control strategies. We summarize cutting-edge findings on the phenomenon of trained immunity in shrimps and discuss how it may contribute to new avenues for controlling disease in these aquaculturally important animals.

Keywords: Artemia; aquaculture; disease; shrimps; trained immunity.
