Genetic evidence for a unique taxonomic position of white spot syndrome virus of shrimp: Genus Whispovirus
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a relatively new agent causing a zoonotic disease in shrimp. Taxonomically this virus is presently an orphaned, floating virus species. WSSV has a unique virion morphology, genome ...
Detection of shrimp viral pathogens with a simple dot-blot enzyme immunoassay protocol
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Dot-blot nitrocellulose enzyme immunoassays (DB-NC-EIA) were developed for the detection of two shrimp viral pathogens, white-spot virus (WSV), and yellow-head virus (YHV). The assays utilized HRP-conjugated virus-specific ...
Emerging shrimp diseases and innovations to prevent their spread
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
The number of diseases affecting cultivated penaeid shrimp has increased steadily with expansion and intensification of large-scale commercial cultivation. In the 1990s the most serious losses have occurred from the emergence ...
Histopathology of a novel melanized lesion in the branchiostegite of cultured penaeid shrimps
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
During routine investigations for white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in shrimp farms of Kundapur in the West Coast of India, a novel melanized proliferative lesion was observed in the branchiostegite of Penaeus monodon and ...
