Abstract
Experimental infections of channel catfish virus were made by feeding virus to six strains of 1‐, 2‐, and 3‐month‐old channel catfish from different geographical areas and two hybrid strains. There was no significant difference in mortality between age groups. Mortality rates differed significantly between the various strains, with mean mortality ranging from 10% to 71% among infected fish. Mortality percentage of the Falcon group was significantly higher than all other groups. Hybrid strains had the lowest percentage of mortality.
