Tilapia is the 2nd most farmed fish species afterward carp in the world. Though, the production has come under risk due to emerging diseases such as the tilapia lake virus (TiLV) that causes huge mortalities with high economic losses. It is mainly unknown whether dissimilar tilapia strains are similarly susceptible to TiLV infection. In the current study, we linked the susceptibility of gray (Oreochromis niloticus x O. aureus) and red tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) to new TiLV infection. The virus was injected intraperitoneally at a concentration of 104 TCID50/mL. Our findings show that gray tilapia had lower mortality, 86.44%, but statistically not significantly different (p = 0.068) from red tilapia (100%).
