Complete Genome Sequencing of the Divergent Guiana Dolphin Morbillivirus (GDMV), Brazil. [PDF]

Viruses
Cetacean morbillivirus (CeMV) is a major threat to cetaceans worldwide, causing individual deaths and outbreaks of mass mortality. Based on partial sequences of the viral phosphoprotein, CeMV is subclassified into seven strains and two distinct lineages.

Electroreception in the Guiana dolphin (Sotalia guianensis). [PDF]

Proc Biol Sci, 2012
Passive electroreception is a widespread sense in fishes and amphibians, but in mammals this sensory ability has previously only been shown in monotremes. While the electroreceptors in fish and amphibians evolved from mechanosensory lateral line organs, those of monotremes are based on cutaneous glands innervated by trigeminal nerves.

Novel cetacean morbillivirus in Guiana dolphin, Brazil. [PDF]

Emerg Infect Dis, 2014
To the Editor: Since 1987, morbillivirus (family Paramyxoviridae, genus Morbillivirus) outbreaks among pinnipeds and cetaceans in the Northern Hemisphere have caused high rates of death (1,2). Two morbillivirus species are known to affect aquatic animals: Phocine distemper virus (PDV) and Cetacean morbillivirus (CeMV).
