Aquaculture provides high-quality protein to the global population. However, the lack of theory and technology of green prevention and control of aquatic diseases seriously restricts the green development of aquaculture industry and effective supply of aquatic products. The study of molecular innate immunity in aquatic animals contributes to disease-related issues.
Disease outbreaks often result from the imbalance between the host and pathogen. Elucidating the principles of host-pathogen interactions may offer insights into the infect and escape mechanism of pathogen. Despite the extensive research conducted, our comprehension of pathogen infection and pathogenesis remains insufficient.
We welcome prospective authors to contribute Original Research, Review and Perspective articles covering but not limited to, the following sub-topics:
1. The molecular aspects of the host-pathogen interactions
2. Molecular mechanisms underlying host innate immunity responses to infection
3. Escape mechanism of pathogen avoidance innate immunity
4. New therapeutic strategies for pathogen infections in aquatic animals
5. Research on epidemic diseases prevention, control, and innate immunity regulation in aquatic animals.
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
