Comparative genomic analysis of the family Iridoviridae: re-annotating and defining the core set of iridovirus genes

Virology Journal, 2007
Background Members of the family Iridoviridae can cause severe diseases resulting in significant economic and environmental losses. Very little is known about how iridoviruses cause disease in their host. In the present study, we describe the re-analysis

Lymphocystis Disease in Endemic Aotearoa New Zealand Bully (Gobiomorphus cotidianus) [PDF]

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 12, December 2026.
ABSTRACT We detected lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV) for the first time in an Aotearoa New Zealand freshwater environment, from an individual common bully, toitoi, Gobiomorphus cotidianus (Eleotridae). Dinah's bully, Gobiomorphus dinae, and Kaharore bully, Gobiomorphus mataraerore, also exhibited gross nodular lesions on the fins but were not sampled.

Complete genome sequence of a Megalocytivirus (family Iridoviridae) associated with turbot mortality in China [PDF]

Virology Journal, 2010
Background Turbot reddish body iridovirus (TRBIV) causes serious systemic diseases with high mortality in the cultured turbot, Scophthalmus maximus. We here sequenced and analyzed the complete genome of TRBIV, which was identified in Shandong province ...

New Light on an Old Story: Lymphocystis Disease in Copperband Butterflyfish (Chelmon rostratus) and Orbicular Batfish (Platax orbicularis) [PDF]

Pathogens
Although the clinical course and pathogenesis of lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV) infection have been extensively described in freshwater and seawater environments, lymphocystis disease has not been studied in the copperband butterflyfish (Chelmon ...

Microbiome and Pathobiome Characterization in Farmed Barramundi (Lates calcarifer) During and Post Scale Drop Disease Outbreaks [PDF]

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Large‐scale double‐digest RAD sequencing (ddRADseq) datasets generated for genotyping are increasingly available in aquaculture, yet their unmapped reads remain largely unexplored for pathogen surveillance. Here, we evaluated the utility and limitations of repurposing unmapped ddRADseq reads to examine pathogen‐associated and disease ...
