Abstract

Abstract : The cDNAs of two C‐type lectins in grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella, galactose‐binding lectin ( galbl ) and mannose‐binding lectin ( mbl ), were cloned and analysed in this study. Both of them exhibited the highest expression level in liver, whereas their expression pattern differed in early phase of embryonic development. Following exposure to grass carp reovirus (GCRV), the mRNA expression level of galbl and mbl was significantly up‐regulated in liver and intestine.
