Expression analysis of iron metabolism genes in head kidneys from infected and non-infected fish. Relative changes in the expression of genes were determined using qPCR in non-infected (white bars) and infected fish (black bars) from LS and HS families. For each gene the relative abundance of mRNA was normalized towards the elongation factor 1 alpha (EF1A) mRNA. Bars represent the mean of five replicate determinations (± SD); *, p < 0.05 (Student’s t test)
