Abstract
Heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) is a disease that affects farmed

Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. several months after the fish have been transferred to seawater.

Recently, a new virus called piscine reovirus (PRV) was identified in Atlantic salmon from an outbreak

of HSMI and in experimentally challenged fish. PRV is associated with the development of

HSMI, and has until now only been detected in Atlantic salmon. This study investigates whether

the virus is also present in wild fish populations that may serve as vectors for the virus. The virus

was found in few of the analyzed samples so there is probably a more complex relationship that

involves several carriers and virus reservoirs.
