Crustaceana, 1999
AbstractDuring an inventory of terrestrial isopods in the Ooypolder, east of Nijmegen, The Netherlands, terrestrial isopods infected with Isopod Iridescent Virus (IIV) or Iridovirus were collected. Trichoniscus pusillus was the most important host for Iridovirus; infected individuals and the focus of infection were found mainly between December and ...

Bohle iridovirus as a vector for heterologous gene expression
Journal of Virological Methods, 2007The large double-stranded DNA (ds DNA) viruses were among the first to be used to construct recombinant viruses, but to date this has not been achieved with any members of the ds DNA virus family, Iridoviridae. We identified a non-essential gene, the viral homologue of eukaryotic initiation factor 2alpha (eIF-2alpha), in Bohle iridovirus (BIV, genus ...

Sublethal effects of iridovirus disease in a mosquito
Oecologia, 1999Recognition of the importance of debilitating effects of insect virus diseases is currently growing. Commonly observed effects of sublethal infection at the individual level include extended development times, reduced pupal and adult weights, and lowered fecundity.

A Decade of Advances in Iridovirus Research
2005Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the advances in iridovirus research over the past decade. It summarizes salient features of the iridovirus research studies, and discusses their importance to future work. As knowledge of iridovirus biology increases, so does the understanding of the taxonomic structure of the family.

Crustaceana, 2012
We conducted a comprehensive review of blue isopods in Japan by collecting isopod species from eight sites located on three Japanese islands (Honshu, Kyushu and Okinawajima). We also interviewed Japanese soil-fauna researchers and retrieved data from the Internet detailing isopod collections in Japan. From analysis of the complete data set, we conclude

An Unusual Replication Strategy of an Animal Iridovirus
1985Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the unusual structure of the Frog virus 3 (FV3) genome and its unique replication strategy. An unusual attribute of FV3 DNA is its high degree of methylation. It is found that over 20% of the deoxycytosine residues—apparently every deoxycytosine in the sequence CpG—has been methylated at the 5 carbon position.

Induction of apoptosis by iridovirus virion protein extract
Archives of Virology, 2007Chilo iridescent virus (CIV; IIV-6) is the type member of the genus Iridovirus (family Iridoviridae, large icosahedral cytoplasmic DNA viruses). CIV induces death and deformity in the cotton boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis, replicates productively in larvae of the cotton boll weevil, and significantly reduces laboratory populations of the cotton aphid,

Production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies to a grouper iridovirus
Journal of Virological Methods, 2003A panel of six monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against a grouper iridovirus (SGIV) were produced by immunization of Balb/c mice with purified virus preparations. Isotyping test revealed all the mAbs were IgG1. None of the mAbs possessed the ability to neutralize SGIV in cell cultures.
