The Function of TER94 of Spodoptera frugiperda 9 Cells When Infected With Invertebrate Iridescent Virus‐6

Journal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 65, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The 118 L protein in the envelope of the Invertebrate iridescent virus 6 (IIV6) is responsible for binding to receptors on the surface of permissive cells. We previously elucidated its function by silencing its gene and neutralizing the protein with antibodies.

Megalocytivirus: A Review of Epidemiology, Pathogenicity, Immune Evasion, and Prevention Strategies

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Megalocytivirus, a large double‐stranded DNA virus belonging to the Iridoviridae family, has infected over 100 species of fish, leading to significant economic losses in the aquaculture, food, and ornamental fish industries. These viruses exhibit icosahedral symmetry and have diameters ranging from 120 to 200 nm.

Genomic sequence of a ranavirus (family Iridoviridae) associated with salamander mortalities in North America

, 2003
Disease is among the suspected causes of amphibian population declines, and an iridovirus and a chytrid fungus are the primary pathogens associated with amphibian mortalities. Ambystoma tigrinum virus (ATV) and a closely related strain, Regina ranavirus (

Sublethal effects of a mass mortality agent: pathogen-mediated plasticity of growth and development in a widespread North American amphibian

Frontiers in Amphibian and Reptile Science
Amphibians exhibit diverse responses to environmental challenges, but their responses to infection risk remain poorly understood. This study investigates how the presence of ranavirus, a deadly viral pathogen, affects growth, development, and resource ...

RNA‐Based Biopesticides: Pioneering Precision Solutions for Sustainable Aquaculture in China

Animal Research and One Health, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 165-176, May 2025.
The Chinese dragon represents RNA biopesticides, which effectively counteract bacterial, viral, and parasitic threats, safeguarding aquatic life. This method is precise, focusing solely on harmful agents and sparing beneficial aquaculture species. Its innovative nature protects aquatic environments while reducing ecological footprint.

Metagenomic Insights into the Viral and Bacterial Communities of a Shrimp Farm Ecosystem: Diversity and Ecological Significance

Fishes
Environmental stressors such as poor water quality, overstocking, and temperature spikes force shrimp to divert energy from growth and immunity to maintain homeostasis, increasing their susceptibility to opportunistic pathogens.

Class A Scavenger Receptors Are Used by Frog Virus 3 During Its Cellular Entry

Viruses, 2019
Frog virus 3 (FV3) is the type species of the genus Ranavirus (family Iridoviridae). FV3 and FV3-like viruses are globally distributed infectious agents with the capacity to replicate in three vertebrate classes (teleosts, amphibians, and reptiles).
