Glass eels and viruses – a lesson learnt from stocking the eastern German Baltic Sea coast
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Accepted Article., 2022 Abstract Concerns about Anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV‐1) in European eels, especially due to stocking measures, is increasingly coming into focus and raises questions regarding disease monitoring and prevention. In the past, stocking of AngHV‐1‐positive eels into waters assumed AngHV‐1‐free has led to a rapid increase of infected eels in the wild. For
